Why it’s a Monday Morning Maybe

With almost no lasting buzz and soft box office, 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: Great for fans of a good haunting and fans of mob stories. The scares come from the creaks and shadows as much as the jumps. Shelve it next to Bullitt. A look inside a world of loyalty, money and betrayal.
The mood: Tense.
The pace: Fast-moving, at 1 hr 55 min.
What might put you off: It's in Swedish, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
Not for anyone who finds explosions tiring.

Johan Falk hasn't been working for over a year since he resigned from the police. Most of all he wants to move out to the countryside, but fate has a different thought.
