Why it’s a Monday Morning Maybe

With almost no lasting buzz and soft box office, 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 people who love a good growing-up story and anyone who loves an underdog. It gets the awkwardness and the high stakes of being young. Same wavelength as Boyhood. The sport matters, but the people playing it matter more.
The mood
Thoughtful and character-driven.
The pace
Character-first and patient, at 1 hr 37 min.
What might put you off
Not the one if you want explosions or easy laughs.

Simon Henderson is at boarding school in Canada while his father works in Hong Kong, and his mother lives in England. When his parents visit him in the holidays, Simon discovers that his mother has schizophrenia.
