Coronavirus: 10 movies to watch during quarantine

You’re stuck inside and everybody's stuck inside. Whether working from home or just chilling, it’s good to take a cinematic break when you’re social distancing during the coronavirus crisis.

With movie theaters closed and blockbusters-in-waiting being postponed all the way to next year, it's a lot for a film fan to take in. Thankfully, there are many, many movies that offer some escape and comfort in a storm of distressing news.

Here is a list of 10 movies to entertain you during this outbreak.

1917

Arrival

Synopsis: When mysterious spacecraft touch down across the globe, an elite team--lead by expert linguist Louise Banks--are brought together to investigate. As mankind teeters on the verge of global war, Banks and the team race against time for answers--and to find them, she will take a chance that could threaten her life, and quite possibly humanity.

Get out

Synopsis: Now that Chris and his girlfriend, Rose, have reached the meet-the-parents milestone of dating, she invites him for a weekend getaway upstate with Missy and Dean.

Just mercy

Synopsis: A powerful and thought-provoking true story, "Just Mercy" follows young lawyer Bryan Stevenson and his history-making battle for justice.

When the warrior Imperator Furiosa leads the despot's five wives in a daring escape, she forges an alliance with Max Rockatansky, a loner and former captive. Fortified in the massive, armored truck the War Rig, they try to outrun the ruthless warlord and his henchmen in a deadly high-speed chase through the Wasteland.

No escape
