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
- One for people who love a good growing-up story and manga readers. It gets the awkwardness and the high stakes of being young. Liked To All the Boys I've Loved Before? This is a good next one. Made in the anime tradition: bold, emotional and willing to go dark.
- The mood
- Light and funny, romantic.
- The pace
- Breezy, at 2 hr 3 min.
- What might put you off
- It's in Chinese, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
- Skip it if romance makes you roll your eyes.
Yuan Xiangqin, a high school student, is deeply in love with Jiang Zhishu, her schoolmate. He rejects her, only for them to live together when the house that she resides in collapses.
