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
- Great for people who can't resist a good whodunit and anyone drawn to the darker side of the street. It plays fair with the clues, so you can play along. Fans of Insomnia or The Dark Knight Rises should feel right at home. New York is practically a character here.
- The mood
- Dark and gritty.
- The pace
- Quiet, then quietly devastating, at 1 hr 27 min. Done before bedtime.
- What might put you off
- Rated PG. Worth a look first if you have very young kids.
- Not the one if you want explosions or easy laughs.
A cop is after a nasty serial killer. Cop's wife and kids are somewhere in the city too. Then a disastrous earthquake hits the city.
