This movie is actually not bad. I've seen a lot of people confused to why the movie is called Monday but it only shows Friday. Well here's the explanation:
Friday symbolizes an inciting incident in the couple's life, Monday symbolizes both, the conclusion of the previous chapter and beginning of a new chapter in their life.
For example, It was on a Friday night when they met. It was on a Friday when they both decided to move in together. It was on a Friday when Chloe learns about her pregnancy and it was on a Friday Christmas eve when they prepared for Hector's arrival.
From Friday, the couple struggled against odds, dodging or facing the conflicts and growing together. No matter what the outcome of their effort is, there is always Monday for them. Monday worked like a reset button in their relationship. It was on this day when they let go of the past and begin again, again.
The message here is, all couples need a symbolic Monday in their life. No matter how hard or horrible the past weekend/ or week was, we should be able to just start the new week with new enthusiasm and passion. The passion two people in love promised each other when they spelled, "forever."
Once you understand that, the movie becomes 100% better!! I think it needed more depth to the characters because they were pretty "simple" but, overall, the movie is good.
