Why it’s a Monday Morning Maybe
With a box office flop, almost no lasting buzz and mixed reviews, 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 adventure lovers. A good one for when you want to be swept off somewhere else. Sits nicely alongside Over the Hedge.
- The mood
- Light and funny, feel-good.
- The pace
- Bright and bouncy, at 1 hr 26 min. Done before bedtime.
- What might put you off
- No age rating on record, so check it first for young kids.
- It's in French, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
- Skip it if you can't get past animation (your loss).
A young cobra and his scorpion best friend go on a journey across the Sahara desert to save a new-found love.
