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
- Best for people who need a good giggle and anyone who likes a story with emotional weight. Best on a quiet night when you're in the mood to feel something. Fans of Soul Kitchen should feel right at home.
- The mood
- Funny with heart.
- The pace
- Gives its people room to develop, at 1 hr 30 min. Short enough for a weeknight.
- What might put you off
- It's in German, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
- Not the one if you want explosions or easy laughs.
Franziska Naumann happily greets her allegedly new neighbor Dr. Gottfried Naumann. She is very surprised when he wants to move into the same apartment in which just the movers carry their furniture. Even Gottfried is surprised - Franziska has not only the same name as he, but apparently also rented the same apartment. Without compromising, the quarreled estate agents Beate and Werner Wüstholtz has rented the apartment twice. There is only one solution: until the circumstances are clarified, the unequal couple must live together in the apartment. The fight burns.
