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
- Right up the alley of people who need a good giggle and anyone who likes a world with its own rules. Good for nights when you want to switch off and laugh.
- The mood
- Funny with heart.
- The pace
- Quiet, then quietly devastating, at 1 hr 40 min.
- What might put you off
- It's in another language, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
- Made in 1944: an older pace and style.
- Not the pick if you want something heavy or meaningful.
Othman Abdelbaset suffers from the intervention of his mother-in-law in his life with his wife. He always worries about his assistants in the pancake shop he runs until his mother-in-law succeeds in cutting him off with his wife and turning his life into hell. He thinks of committing suicide and introduces his idea to his aides. The three go to sea to carry out the idea, but one of the sailors sees them leading the boat trip to one of the islands and they are on an adventure inside the Prince of the Island where they fight the bad guys who want to take over the island rule
