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
- One for anyone who loves watching a plan come together and people who like their stories with a little danger. The fun is in the planning, the double-crosses and the moment it all goes sideways. Shelve it next to The Asphalt Jungle or Ronin.
- The mood
- Tense, dark and gritty.
- The pace
- Lets scenes breathe, at 1 hr 35 min.
- What might put you off
- It's in French, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
- Skip it if you prefer quiet, talky stories.
Vigilante, a small armored truck company, is in full crisis mode. Victim of three violent hold-ups in a year, which left no survivors, the company is on the verge of bankruptcy and its employees are extremely worried. Some even suggest a complicity between the robbers and the firm. It is in this difficult context that a man, Alexandre Demarre, one morning presents himself to start his first day of work at Vigilante.
