What Happened to Monday (2017)

This movie goes from " that's an interesting plot" to " What the hell?" And not in a good way....An interesting plot that become a mess that only turns un a political fear mongering, bad plot Twist and the predicable " goverment is bad"

In a world mixed with reality and fantasy, where one would question systems and laws, this movie takes place. And what a better way to demonize the communist one-child policy than weaving it in a gloomy story where 7 female siblings have to hide their existence forever. I have to say that the story of this movie is unique, for it invokes your sympathy with the 7 identical siblings. The fact that you must hide all your life with no real identity, and are only allowed to go out once a week on the day you're named after, is pretty painful and depressing. Noomi Rapace's performance was incredible. It reminds me of the talents of Uma Therman in 'Kill Bill' and Sigourney Weaver in her epic days. The movie raises an indirect question. Is it true that love can conquer everything? We see that the CAB officer gets attached to one of the siblings, that's Saturday. Although we didn't see enough of what urges him to risk his life in order to save her, he defies everything for her. Perhaps it proves that love is blind. It sure is in this case. I recommend this movie for you. Enjoy!

In a future where overpopulation is the major threat to civilization, having more than one child is a major crime against humanity. To enforce that CAB, Child Allocation Bureau, starts to hunt all and every sibling around. Siblings are processed in CAB's headquarters, and CAB quickly takes the form of a oppressing agency that stands above the law. In this world Terrence Settman secretely raises his seven grandchildren, all identical girls, that his daughter left after dying at birth. He names them for the weekdays, and when they get old enough they can only go outside on their day. One day Monday doesn't come home.A good thriller with quite a bit of action and sci-fi in it. And to be honest, some pretty gory and gruesome moments. There are several twists and turns in a pretty good plot. The premise is interesting, even if not really worked through. Some of the twists are quite obvious and easy to predict. Others are harder to guess, foremost what really happened to Monday, and that is what carries the suspense throughout the movie. Because, even though there are some errors, this is a good thriller.Noomi Rapace acts very well against her self. I honestly didn't feel her acting against six copies of herself stuttered or forced anytime. They interacted as if there really were seven siblings there. The other bid names, Close and Defoe, has just small parts actually. And even if they act well, as always, they don't contribute to the important parts.8/10

Great science fiction movie... very original liked it
