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 fans of prison dramas and anyone who likes a story with emotional weight. The walls close in, and so does the tension. Same wavelength as I Am a Fugitive from a Chain Gang or Roofman.
The mood
Thoughtful and character-driven.
The pace
Character-first and patient, at 1 hr 33 min.
What might put you off
Not the one if you want explosions or easy laughs.

A hardened con being transferred from a federal penitentiary to a Texas institution to finish a life sentence as a habitual criminal is freed at gunpoint by his niece. The police man, who was transferring him and has been the con's adversary for over 30 years, vows to catch the twosome.
