\u00a0“Monday Morning” endeared many critics like Nick Leyland from “Movie Room Review” who said\u00a0“Monday Morning is an eye-opening film\u2026 a lot of things in this movie that will make your stomach turn, but maybe it will make you want to step up and do something about this problem in your own neighborhood”.\u00a0 But “Monday Morning” also seriously angered a few.\u00a0 As one said off the record – that he thought the movie was “moving and powerful”, but his philosophical differences and strong aversion to some of the graphic scenes, caused him to “pass” on reviewing the movie. \u00a0\u00a0Any movie that could be polarizing is a risky venture for an exhibitor. Or maybe not. \u00a0Greg Laemmle gave “Monday Morning” a theatrical run at his Laemmle Theaters.

“<\/span>Bold and haunting\u2026<\/span>\u00a0Nat Christian amalgamates the elements of drama, thriller, politics, social commentary and magical realism… The plot never feels predictable or ho-hum\u2026
\nHe depicts the lifestyles of the homeless realistically and unflinchingly”
\n… Avi Offer, NYC Movie Guru<\/h3>\n

“<\/span>A unique story\u00a0<\/span>that dives beyond its political exterior, unveiling a severe problem
\nin our country and putting a spotlight on those who must rise up and make a difference”
\n… Stephen Davis, College Movie Review<\/h3>\n

“A timely film & a rarity<\/span>\u00a0in today’s political climate…
\nSurprising (& sobering) scenes of abuse of homeless people”
\n… Edward Yerke-Robins, laist<\/h3>\n

“It reminded me of\u00a0It’s a Wonderful Life turned inside-out<\/span>…\u00a0Christian manages to
\ngive us certain scenes that are surprisingly powerful, often upsetting, that involve his homeless”
\n\u2026 James van Maanen, TrustMovies<\/h3>\n

“An eye opening film…\u00a0<\/span>a lot of things in this movie that will make your stomach turn,
\nbut maybe it will make you want to step up and do something
\nabout this problemin your own neighborhood”
\n… Nick Leyland, Movie Room Review<\/h3>\n

“It is\u00a0c<\/span>omplex and deep<\/span><\/span>,<\/span> and will leave viewers thinking
\nlong after the last words are spoken… shocking… yet endearing in an odd way”
\n… Caress Thirus, Film Monthly<\/h3>\n

“A thumbs up!\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0There are some very graphic scenes and graphic
\nlanguage in this film that some may find disgusting, however,
\nthe stark truth is appalling and disgusting. It is amazing how,
\nwhen the truth is presented, a few will not even review a film
\nbecause they don’t want to see and admit the truth that is there.
\nAnd the truth is what it is… and that we truly must start to do
\nsomething about this atrocity of mankind’s inhumanity to an
\never growing population of the homeless.”
\n…David Lawrence Dewey, DL Dewey’s World<\/h3>\n

“After 20 years of trying to help homeless families I thought I had seen it all,
\nbut Monday Morning was and is\u00a0a truly inspiring and riveting film<\/span>”
\n… Booker Pearson, Upward Bound<\/h3>\n

“A powerful, engaging movie<\/span>,\u00a0which captures the essence of the homeless.
\nThe personalities of the characters light up and I experienced them as very real”
\n\u2026 Bill Rosendahl, L.A. City Councilman<\/h3>\n

“A<\/span> poignant depiction<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span>of homelessness, with powerful performances
\nthat will linger long after credits roll”
\n…The Indie Talent Awards<\/h3>\n
