With siblings in hiding all over the place, the CAB and protective parents have their hands full. The plan, concocted and overseen by Nicolette Caymen (Glenn Close) and enforced by the Child Allocation Bureau, has dramatic results, but in the same way shoving clothes and toys in a closet makes a room look clean. To save food, space, and resources, subsequent siblings will be put into chyro-sleep and awakened at some unknown point in the future.Ĭan you guess how well this goes? Screengrab via Netflix/YouTube In the movie, the future’s solution is to dig into the past and institute a policy of one child per family. It’s like the joke about releasing wolves to solve your deer problem, then having to solve the wolf problem. Genetically enhanced food helps, but it leads to more multi-child pregnancies. Set in 2073, What Happened to Monday occurs in a future where a combination of overpopulation, a shortage of food, and global warming has forced humans into some tough decisions. Rapace plays seven sisters, which means the audience gets to watch seven versions of Rapace issue beatdowns.
Similar to Gal Gadot and Charlize Theron, Rapace is the best thing about her movie.
In a summer with Wonder Woman and Atomic Blonde, What Happened to Monday is not quite as good as the former but better than the latter. In Netflix’s What Happened to Monday, director Tommy Wirkola and writers Max Botkin and Kerry Williamson have cracked the code: Why settle for one Rapace when you can have seven? But no matter the size of her role, it always felt like filmmakers weren’t maximizing Rapace’s skills. She performed a self-surgery, then sprinted away in Prometheus. She logged three tours as Lisbeth Salander with the Dragon Tattoo trilogy. If you learn only one thing from Noomi Rapace’s filmography, it’s this: She kicks ass, pretty much all the time.
