When you think of minimal, the first thing that comes to your mind is less. Designers and art lovers admire and appreciate minimalism, because it eliminates all non-essential forms, features, and concepts by leaving you with the most necessary elements needed to get a specific point across. Einstein said, “Everything should be made as simple as possible, but not simpler.” Well, he was definitely on to something.

Today we gathered thirty minimal movie posters for your inspiration. Most of the posters below require some knowledge about the movie at hand. If you’ve seen the movie, then you can easily relate. If you haven’t, then it’s a bit harder to comprehend the message the poster is trying to get across.

If you’re a movie nerd or a fellow cinephile, you’re bound to enjoy this showcase. Every single poster is linked to its original source. We hope this collection will encourage you to create a minimal poster for your favorite movie. Enjoy!
