Why it’s a Monday Morning Maybe

With almost no lasting buzz and soft box office, 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 with a complicated family (so, everyone) and anyone who likes corsets, castles and court intrigue. Family ties get tested in ways that ring true. Liked The Guns of Navarone? This is a good next one. The costumes and settings are a feast on their own.
The mood
Exciting.
The pace
Takes its time with its characters, at 1 hr 49 min.
What might put you off
  • It's in French, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
  • Made in 1956: an older pace and style.
  • Skip it if you need something light and fast tonight.

When Emir Feofar Khan, leader of the Tartar hordes, takes up arms and invades the steppes of Eastern Siberia, Czar Alexander II of Russia entrusts the brave officer Michael Strogoff with a dangerous mission.
