Why it’s a Monday Morning Maybe

With just 19% on Rotten Tomatoes, a box office loss and little 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
Aimed squarely at anyone who remembers how big everything felt at sixteen and anyone who loves trying to stay one step ahead. Small moments carry real weight here, the way they do when you're young.
The mood
Light and funny, tense.
The pace
Moves at a clip, at 1 hr 45 min.
What might put you off
  • Rated PG-13: scary moments. Probably too much for younger kids.
  • Skip it if you prefer quiet, talky stories.

A rebellious computer engineering prodigy uses his talent for pranks to outwit the security consultant who has taken the students at his prestigious private school hostage.
