VOD Release: Extra Ordinary

By John Corrado

The Irish ghost comedy Extra Ordinary, which screened as the opening night film at the Toronto After Dark Film Festival last October, is being released for rent and purchase this week on a variety of VOD platforms, including iTunes.

The film had the misfortune of being released theatrically on March 13th for a limited run at the Carlton in Toronto, the same weekend that the theatres announced they were being shut down to help stop the spread of COVID-19.

I had a blast watching this film in a packed theatre at Toronto After Dark, and erroneously suggested others should try to see it with an enthusiastic crowd in my review, but oh how times have changed. Now your best and only real option is to watch Extra Ordinary at home, and I’m sure you’ll have a good time if you’re in the mood for an amusing supernatural comedy.

Film Rating: ★★★ (out of 4)

Release Date: March 13th, 2020 (Theatrical); May 5th, 2020 (VOD)
