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 people who root for the clever crook and people who like their stories with a little danger. Half the pleasure is trying to spot the trick before the reveal. Fans of Bad Boys or Shaft should feel right at home.
The mood: Dark and gritty.
The pace: Lets scenes breathe, at 1 hr 24 min. Short enough for a weeknight.
What might put you off: It's in German, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
Made in 1974: an older pace and style.
Skip it if you like your heroes clean-cut.

A drifting teen slips from petty crime into exploitation on the streets of Hamburg, courted by a self-serving journalist and a predatory pimp, before a doomed romance pushes him toward a desperate armed-robbery scheme he can’t outrun.
