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
- Aimed squarely at people who can't resist a good whodunit and anyone who likes their action precise. It plays fair with the clues, so you can play along. A good follow-up to The Parallax View or The Killer. Lean and efficient, like its main character.
- The mood
- Tense, gritty.
- The pace
- Fast-moving, at 1 hr 30 min. An easy one to fit in on a school night.
- What might put you off
- It's in Swedish, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
- Skip it if you like your heroes clean-cut.
The executive of Zting Air is blackmailed. He has to pay 3,000,000 SEK or else his wife will be killed and a plane will explode mid-air.
