[Movie News] In Theaters This Week – November 6, 2020

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 weekend brings two new movies to theaters. In the first, grandparents go in search of their grandson, living with his mother and her new husband, only to run into the stalwart matron who certainly is not what they expected. The second film is about a Norwegian-American who goes on a trip to Norway, only to discover that he has God-like powers and sending him on quite the adventure.
