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
Aimed squarely at romantics and parents and kids watching together. One the grown-ups won't mind watching too.
The mood
Warm and romantic, feel-good.
The pace
Lively and easy to follow, at 1 hr 30 min. Short enough for a weeknight.
What might put you off
  • No age rating on record, so check it first for young kids.
  • Skip it if you want something with an edge.

At the height of her career, investigative journalist Hannah Dunbar finds herself wondering what would have been had she stayed with the love of her life, Ben, 10 years before. When Santa Claus hears her “what ifs?” as a Christmas wish, he transports Hannah to a version of her life where she and Ben started a family.
