Review & Recommendations
Overpopulation is an undesirable condition we are dealing with in our society; natural resources are scarce, and we as human beings will be responsible for multiple species going extinct in under a decade if we do not change. This relevant issue was being explored in the 2017 sci-fi film What Happened to Monday starring Noomi Repace, Glenn Close, and Willem Dafoe. Speaking of characters, I want to point out how amazing Noomi Repace is in this. Portraying one character in a film is pretty difficult for most actors, yet she was asked to act 7 of them. She is one of the best actresses I have ever seen. The movie amazes me because of its mind-blowing plot and great actors. Hence, it will keep you on edge almost every minute. I loved the aspect of septuplets solving the mystery of their sister’s disappearance and that the missing sister has become their downfall. Therefore, if one has suffered, they should go through it as well because their identity must be the same. Also, I felt emotional because of the rules that have compelled governments to undertake a drastic One-Child Strategy. Overall, this movie was great, and if I would be watching it a hundred times, I will never get bored because of its unique story.
I would rate this movie a 9 out of 10 because of some loopholes in the storyline. I recommend this movie to anyone who loves action. I would suggest that the audience be mindful of the characteristic of the seven sisters because they will be confused if they will not do so.
