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
If you count yourself among fans of prison dramas and people who enjoy a knot in their stomach, this one's for you. The walls close in, and so does the tension. A good follow-up to Cape Fear.
The mood
Tense.
The pace
Takes its time with its characters, at 1 hr 30 min. Short enough for a weeknight.
What might put you off
  • It's in German, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
  • Made in 1964: an older pace and style.
  • Not the one if you want explosions or easy laughs.

A private detective tries to find out how and why some convicts have mysteriously disappeared from the prison of Dartmoor.
