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
Made for fantasy readers and anyone with a best friend they'd call at 3am. Its magic has rules, and the story plays by them. The friendships are the beating heart of it.
The mood
Light and funny, feel-good.
The pace
Lively and easy to follow, at 1 hr 20 min. Short enough for a weeknight.
What might put you off
  • No age rating on record, so check it first for young kids.
  • It's in Spanish, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
  • Skip it if you can't get past animation (your loss).

This is the third time that Vik and his family have moved to a different city. Vik is a shy child who finds it hard to make new friends, and whenever he finally does start to open up to someone, his father's job inevitably causes the family to up sticks and relocate to a different part of the country, and Vik has to start all over again. Luckily for him, this time he soon meets Mai and Oto in the city park.
