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 people who need a good giggle and people who love a story set somewhere strange. Leaves you with ideas to chew on afterwards.
The mood
Light and funny.
The pace
Breezy, at 1 hr 40 min.
What might put you off
  • It's in Italian, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
  • Made in 1975: an older pace and style.
  • Skip it if you like your stories firmly grounded in the real world.

The year is 2037 A.D. Depletion of natural fuels has eliminated electrical power throughout the world. No light… no heat… no T.V., until a team of award-winning scientists succeeds in harnessing energy from the world’s oldest source of reciprocating motion.
