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
- Right up the alley of people who root for the clever crook and book lovers. The fun is in the planning, the double-crosses and the moment it all goes sideways. A good follow-up to Pulp Fiction or Take the Money and Run. Adapted from a book, so readers can compare notes.
- The mood
- Light and funny.
- The pace
- Light on its feet, at 1 hr 20 min. Done before bedtime.
- What might put you off
- It's in another language, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
- Skip it if you're after something serious tonight.
The petty criminal Trampas is released from prison and immediately starts planning new jobs with his girlfriend's simpleminded brother Lepsu. They are joined by Trampas's pregnant girlfriend and Jusse, a refugee from Rwanda, as a driver.
