Why it’s a Monday Morning Maybe
With rough reviews, soft box office 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
- Made for fans of prison dramas and anyone interested in what war does to people. The walls close in, and so does the tension. It puts you in the middle of the fighting, and doesn't let you forget the cost.
- The mood
- Exciting.
- The pace
- Fast-moving, at 1 hr 36 min.
- What might put you off
- Rated PG-13: peril. Probably too much for younger kids.
- Not for anyone who finds explosions tiring.
While Chappy Sinclair is saddled with a bunch of misfits and delinquents for his flight school, he turns to his protégé Doug Masters to assist him in rounding them into shape for an important competition. During their training, they stumble upon a group of subversive air force officers who are dealing in toxic waste as a sideline.
