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 anyone who likes a story with a soundtrack worth keeping and people who start the Christmas movies early. The music is woven into the story, not just laid on top. Made to be watched with the tree lit.
The mood
Warm and romantic, feel-good.
The pace
Paced for all ages, at 1 hr 26 min. Short enough for a weeknight.
What might put you off
  • No age rating on record, so check it first for young kids.
  • Not the one if you want explosions or easy laughs.

When her niece is cast in The Philadelphia Ballet’s production of the Nutcracker, a jaded ex-ballerina is forced to come to terms with the life and love she left behind.
