Why it’s a Monday Morning Maybe
With a box office flop and almost no lasting buzz, this one could be a tough watch. Keep your phone handy.
Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.Is it for you?
- Who'll love it
- Tailor-made for people who like the lights on afterwards and anyone who likes a story with a soundtrack worth keeping. The scares come from the creaks and shadows as much as the jumps. The music is woven into the story, not just laid on top.
- The mood
- Light and funny.
- The pace
- Zips along, at 1 hr 17 min. Short enough for a weeknight.
- What might put you off
- Made in 1930: an older pace and style.
- Skip it if you're after something serious tonight.
Amos and Andy trying to make a go of their "open-air" taxi business while they get caught up in a society hassle, involving driving musicians to a fancy party.
