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: Made for families. If you loved Mickey's Christmas Carol, start here.
The mood: Feel-good.
The pace: Moves along nicely, at 59 min.
What might put you off: No age rating on record, so check it first for young kids.

This Christmas special breathes new life into some of Astrid Lindgren's beloved stories. Some, we've seen before, some we've never seen in animated form and some are completely new. Centering around a mysterious cuckoo clock, this film brings us into the worlds of Emil, Brenda Brave and Nils Karlsson Pyssling among others.
