This movie is almost the definition of intriguing. In the entire first act of the movie, I was thinking to myself: "I like it, but where is it going?" Well, it went somewhere, but not far. The first act start of very interesting and kept me wanting more, but after a while a started to lose interested. The problem with it is that it's showing a big portion of these characters' life's, but without a big plot or story it's start to become a bit tedious. There's a ten-minute scene in the second act about a failed party, but it could have accomplished the same with 3 minutes. And the same counts for the wedding, and another party. While there are so many situations that are dragged out, it could have used that time to show some background for these characters. There a lot of character development, but we don't know much about their history, which is sad because these are very complex characters. This would have made the emotional and darker moments a lot better. I never had a moment where a felt like I knew these characters. There was always more going on, but we never really got to that. It doesn't have to with the performances, because they are excellent. It just never fully got together for me. Started of strong, but without buildup and background I couldn't get behind it at the end.

2.5 out of 5 stars.

Monday is a pretty bad drama film that tries to play as a romantic drama of two characters that meet in Athens. And they cant seem to be apart from each other.

Great cast with the likables of Sebastian Stan and Denise Gough. The story and direction can barely go on for so long without losing its steam and ideas. Half way through the film it falls flat and seemed nearly pointless throughout.

Monday is a flawed romance that benefits from great lead performances. The first half hour or so were great. The beautiful locales, the attractive leads, and the light tone make it a nice and breezy watch. But once things get serious the film gets less interesting. The drama is not that well written and is fairly cliched. The finale is interesting enough but than the film just ends.
