"What happened to Monday" suffers from lazy writing which leads to a very predictable and meaningless plot. The premise is a near future where over-population has lead to a shortage of resources. In order to remedy this a world-wide policy of one child per family is introduced. The story begins where identical septuplets have managed to fool the Child Allocation Bureau for 30 years and then one does not return, hence the title of the film.
One of the failures is the characterization, there are 7 distinct personalities in play but the differences are so extreme that it is implausible that to think that to the outside world they would seem like one person and for roughly 23years keeping up the act.
Maybe it was supposed to be an action movie, but the action sequences are not well planned and also many of the scenes lead to dead ends so you feel you wasted some time following a particular plot path.
Thus (5/10)
