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
Tailor-made for fans of a good con and anyone drawn to the darker side of the street. Half the pleasure is trying to spot the trick before the reveal. A good follow-up to Reservoir Dogs or Avengement.
The mood
Tense, gritty.
The pace
Fast-moving, at 1 hr 32 min.
What might put you off
  • It's in Swedish, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
  • Skip it if you like your heroes clean-cut.

In the second film with Krister Henriksson as Kurt Wallander, a man enters a bank and threatens to blow it up in the air unless his demands are met. Henning Mankell's sharp-eyed commissioner has the assistance of daughter Linda, newly graduated police officer, and criminal inspector Stefan Lindman.
