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 crime fans, anyone who wants a laugh and action fans. If you loved Take the Money and Run, start here.
The mood: Light and funny.
The pace: Fast-moving, at 1 hr 15 min.
What might put you off: Made in 1944: an older pace and style.

Two bumbling plumbers are hired by a socialite to fix a leak. A case of mistaken identity gets the pair an invitation to a fancy party and an entree into high society. As expected, things don't go too smoothly.
