The New Normal at the Movies
March 4, 2021

In response to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, movie studios have shifted
their film release dates. While many smaller films that had on-demand debuts
have proceeded with the digital parts of those releases, many films are either
moving to 2021 or being delayed indefinitely. You might have missed some great
films that went straight to DVD or had a more quite release. Here are some of
my favorites:
Ava (2020)

Ava is a deadly assassin who works for a black ops organization, traveling the
globe specializing in high profile hits. When a job goes dangerously wrong she
