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: Made for fans of a well-timed joke. Set in the 1960s, and it looks the part.
The mood: Light and funny.
The pace: Quick and easy-going, at 1 hr 20 min. Done before bedtime.
What might put you off: It's in another language, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
Made in 1961: an older pace and style.
Not the pick if you want something heavy or meaningful.

A diamond of inestimable value will become the apple of discord and the cause of an incredible mess between a gang of criminals, the police, the priests of a parish, and... the savages of a jungle tribe!
