How often do I get to say "wow" when I see a movie? Let me tell you, rarely......
What Happened to Monday is really quite brilliant. It takes the serious real world issue of overpopulation and pits it against the intrinsic human imperative to protect its offspring.
The inevitable collision that takes place when the need to see the species thrive at the expense of the individual, is the starting point of this film.
What happens in between is a cleverly crafted mix of sci fi, masterful storytelling, well executed action with a emotional component that's genuinely touching.
Noomi Rapace of "Girl with the Dragon Tattoo" fame hands in yet another show stopping performance, nimbly and ably playing multiple characters, seemingly with ease. That's not to dismiss the performance of other cast members. This is a collectively polished affair.
This is, for me, a "must see" and possibly even "see again" sci fi. Ten out of ten from me.
