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
- If you count yourself among fans of mob stories and people who like their stories with a little danger, this one's for you. A look inside a world of loyalty, money and betrayal. Sits nicely alongside Get Shorty or The Other Guys. New York is practically a character here.
- The mood
- Light and funny.
- The pace
- Lean, with little time wasted, at 1 hr 29 min. An easy one to fit in on a school night.
- What might put you off
- Rated PG. Worth a look first if you have very young kids.
- Made in 1973: an older pace and style.
- Not for anyone who finds explosions tiring.
Two disillusioned New York policemen plan a $10 million robbery to fuel their low pensions, only to run into one debacle after another in the process.
