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
- Best for anyone drawn to the darker side of the street and anyone who likes to be kept guessing. Best on a quiet night when you're in the mood to feel something.
- The mood
- Tense, dark and gritty.
- The pace
- Quiet, then quietly devastating, at 2 hr 17 min.
- What might put you off
- It's in another language, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
- Skip it if you need something light and fast tonight.
Shehata is the son of a modest gardener who saved all his money to open a fruit stand and named it after his favorite son. Shehata's siblings get so jealous of their brother and plot against him. A representation of the downfall of society and its decaying morals.
