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
Great for people who'll be looking things up afterwards and people who like stories about real, flawed people. Based on real events, so expect to go down a research rabbit hole afterwards.
The mood
Thoughtful and character-driven.
The pace
Long and immersive, at 3 hr 25 min.
What might put you off
  • Rated PG-13. Probably too much for younger kids.
  • It's long: 3 hr 25 min.
  • Skip it if you need something light and fast tonight.

Centered on the six years before the fall of Batista's dictatorship and the subsequent 40 years of the Cuban Revolution.
