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
Made for romantics, anyone who wants a laugh and fantasy fans. If you loved Barbie or Bell, Book and Candle, start here.
The mood
Light and funny, romantic.
The pace
Breezy, at 1 hr 40 min.
What might put you off
It's in another language, so expect subtitles (or a dub).

Based on a What if? dialectic, women are taking the role and position of men in the society. We see the stories of some couples with the woman being patriarchal and in control. Under the new fictional situation, a lot is revealed about relationships.
