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
Great for fans of close encounters and anyone who loves trying to stay one step ahead. The aliens are the hook, but the human reactions are the story. Sits nicely alongside They Live or The Man Who Fell to Earth.
The mood
Tense.
The pace
Quiet, then quietly devastating, at 1 hr 25 min. Done before bedtime.
What might put you off
Not the one if you want explosions or easy laughs.

In a remote part of rural, post-apocalyptic England, now occupied by unseen alien invaders, a feisty teenage girl sets out on a desperate attempt to fight back a group of bandits and defend her parents' farm, their remaining livestock, and the solar panels that keep them safe from extraterrestrials. If she doesn't succeed, she will lose her only source of food and shelter; if she resists, she and her helpless blind sibling will be killed.
