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
Right up the alley of anyone who's ever talked to their pet and anyone after some adrenaline. An animal steals a fair few scenes. Shelve it next to The Boy, the Mole, the Fox and the Horse.
The mood
Feel-good.
The pace
Lively and easy to follow, at 1 hr. Done before bedtime.
What might put you off
  • Made in 1927: an older pace and style.
  • Not the one if you want explosions or easy laughs.

Our doggy hero is abandoned in the desert while in pup-hood. Upon reaching maturity, Tin Tin has undeservedly earned the reputation as a killer canine. Thus, the human characters spend most of their time hunting down the dog in hopes of collecting a huge bounty.
