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
Tailor-made for anyone who likes a story with a soundtrack worth keeping and people who need a good giggle. The music is woven into the story, not just laid on top. Fans of The School of Rock should feel right at home.
The mood
Light and funny.
The pace
Quick and easy-going, at 1 hr 21 min. An easy one to fit in on a school night.
What might put you off
  • Made in 1929: an older pace and style.
  • Not the pick if you want something heavy or meaningful.

Phil and Pete compete for Mary's love and also in a contest for best song written by a college student.
