Many theaters are still not open in the US. Some have had to close again due to health restrictions being put back in place or simply due to a lack of people coming in. While many big-name movies are pushing their release dates back even further, or choosing to premiere overseas first, a number of movies are still determined to make their way to theaters.
This week has quite a few new releases. There are two period-set movies, a film about two cyclist friends, an animated film, a movie about a teenage girl who swaps bodies with a serial killer, and much more. There’s certainly something that will appeal to just about everyone!
