Featured reviews
Monday is a incredibly fun and entertaining movie experience, I would love to see a Saga made out of this (or at least a Trilogy)
Loving Characters with great backgrounds, I Honestly think that The Hit-woman stole the movie, amazing actress, her character reminded me of the T-1000 in terminator 2... She is unstoppable and a bad-ass villain!
the setting and tone of the movie reminded me of the early work of Scorsese in After Hours with a mix of Tarantino´s Reservoir Dogs but with its own style and formula.
The Only Thing I can call out is the Length..It felt it run a little bit short. I would love to see more scenes with Paul (Kenneth´s Character) it was hilarious and I think an additional scene or two wold help the time also, Joe´s Character (Carlos Laredo), he was AMAZING, I would have love seen him more, maybe on a flash back scene or something doing some Gangster thing
Overall Great Action, Suspense and greatly timed comedy pieces
Like many others, I was eager to watch MONDAY to see just what could be pulled off for a $7000 budget. Within 5 minutes though, I was so lost in the story and characters that I completely forgot this was a micro-budget feature. The writing is sharp and witty, acting is incredibly natural (and funny), and it's amongst the best edited films I have seen in a very long time. Definitely check this movie out and support indie film at it's finest!
So you say you love "Office Space," indie film and Robert Rodriguez films? I have the film for you... This fun (amazing 7k super low budget) film packs a big punch for such a modest budget. Have fun and enjoy!
I spend more time than I like to admit watching indie films and "Monday" was one of last year's finest. Monday is a gritty action comedy made on an insanely low budget that without a doubt holds up to the year's finest indie features. The film takes you on a roller coaster ride - Lead Jamie Jung's has a breakthrough performance. His comedic timing and execution of the everyman is standout and the rest of the cast follows suit.
What's even more outstanding is the film's direction. Director Alejandro Montoya Marin took hold of the genre and in the vein of indie icon Robert Rodriguez is breaking onto the scene with something fresh and original. If it's at a screen near you - DON'T MISS MONDAY!

Alejandro weaves a visually spectacular story that has action, laughs, and ultimately is just a ton of fun. The creativity is in full swing with this one.
