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
Tailor-made for anyone who likes a story with a soundtrack worth keeping and anyone who wants a laugh. The music is woven into the story, not just laid on top. A good follow-up to Weird: The Al Yankovic Story or Bo Burnham: Make Happy.
The mood
Light and funny.
The pace
Zips along, at 1 hr 2 min. An easy one to fit in on a school night.
What might put you off
Skip it if you're after something serious tonight.

Winner of the first video Grammy Award, Michael Nesmith (The Monkees) wrote and starred in Elephant Parts, a collection of comedy and music videos. Elephant Parts is one hour long and features five full length music videos, including the popular songs "Rio", and "Cruisin'", which featured wrestler Steve Strong and Monterey-based comic "Chicago" Steve Barkley. An off-beat collection that is very entertaining to view while in an altered state.
