WHAT HAPPENED TO MONDAY?
August 18, 2017  | By David Bianculli

Netflix, 3:00 a.m. ET

 

MOVIE PREMIERE: This Netflix sci-fi movie imagines a future society with a strict one-child policy (okay, that sounds like a fairly recent one-child policy from one particular Far East country, but go with it). That’s a plot device to explain why the septuplets of What Happened to Monday?, each known by a different day of the week, are in constant hiding, with only one showing her face at a time. And all the faces look like, and are played by, Noomi Rapace, in what sounds like an almost instant attempt by Netflix to ride the wave of, and replace the void left by, Tatiana Maslany’s clone-club split personalities of Orphan Black.
