Movie: What Happened To Monday (2017)

[afriendo]

So imma sum this up pretty quick.
The movie is about a dad or grandpa or whatever he is is raising 7 daughters that are twins. Or whatever you wanna call them, they look the same. One goes by each day of the week being the day they can leave. One kid lost a finger, so Grandpa cut all their fingers off to match. The story goes along with things like this happening. The sisters start sacrificing themselves for each other and then Monday sells them out and eventually dies from wounds.

I saw this movie and it’s really good I remember that all the sisters had to share what they did everyday so that they could act the same and they were all named a different day depending on whichever day they were allowed to go out.

OMG I saw this movie with my mum and older sister and it was so good! 100% recommend.

This is one of the best movies on Netflix imo.
Literally every minute was filled with suspense and I was literally sitting at the edge of my seat the whole movie.
It has sad scenes, action scenes, romance scenes, betrayal and I just think it's the whole package.

So here's the explanation
(From Wikipedia):
Around 2043, overpopulation has caused a worldwide crisis, resulting in a strict one-child policy enforced by the Child Allocation Bureau. All but the eldest children are put into cryosleep. Electronic bracelets track all citizens.
Karen Settman dies while giving birth to identical septuplets. Their grandfather and Karen's father, Terrence, names them after the days of the week and trains them to pose as a single individual named after their mother, leaving the house only on the day of their name. Terrence ensures that they share information daily and replicate any physical accidents that alter their appearance. The sisters use wigs and makeup to cover up any identifying features. After a young Thursday sneaks out of the apartment and injures herself skateboarding, Terrence amputates part of the index finger of each sister to mimic Thursday’s injury.
In 2073, Monday prepares her disguise, nervous about giving a presentation. At a checkpoint, Monday runs into Adrian Knowles, a C.A.B. agent who talks to her. At the bank, Monday's co-worker, Jerry, a competitor for a promotion, hints at blackmailing her.
When Monday fails to return home, Tuesday retraces her steps. Tuesday learns that Monday got the promotion and met Jerry at a bar. Before she can investigate further, C.A.B. agents detain her and cut off her communications. In the C.A.B. facility, Adrian sees Tuesday escorted to a cell, where she meets Nicolette Cayman, head of the Bureau and a candidate for Parliament. Cayman says she knows about Tuesday's siblings and, when Tuesday offers a bribe, Cayman reveals that Monday had offered her the same deal. Cayman orders C.A.B. agents to assassinate Tuesday's sisters.
C.A.B. agents use an enucleated eye to bypass a retinal scanner at the Settman home. The sisters kill the agents, but Sunday is killed. Learning the eye is Tuesday's, the sisters suspect Jerry may have sold them out. The next day, Wednesday leaves without disguising herself and confronts Jerry. He reveals that "Karen" got the promotion when she sent millions of euros to Cayman to fund her campaign. After a C.A.B. sniper kills Jerry, Wednesday flees his apartment.
The others remotely guide Wednesday to safety but are interrupted when Adrian shows up at the sisters' apartment, concerned about "Karen." Surmising that Adrian has a relationship with one of them, Thursday convinces Saturday to leave with him. Saturday, a virgin, talks with Adrian at his apartment. She covertly links their bracelets while sleeping with him, allowing Friday to hack into the C.A.B. On a video feed, the sisters believe they have found Monday in a holding cell. Meanwhile, C.A.B. agents corner and kill Wednesday. After Adrian leaves his apartment, C.A.B. agents arrive and kill Saturday after she tells her siblings Monday was dating Adrian. The sisters' apartment is raided simultaneously by a C.A.B. squad led by Joe, the head of security of C.A.B. Admitting that she cannot survive on her own, Friday sacrifices herself by blowing up their apartment to allow Thursday to escape and rescue Monday.
Adrian hears about the incident and rushes back to the Settman apartment. Thursday confronts him in his car, blaming him for her sisters' deaths. Adrian now realizes "Karen" is an assumed identity for several siblings and claims to love Monday, whom he agrees to help rescue. Adrian sneaks Thursday, concealed in a body bag, into C.A.B. headquarters. She secretly records a child undergoing cryosleep. Instead of being frozen, the child is incinerated. Adrian and Thursday discover Tuesday, missing an eye, inside the cell. They search for Monday, only to discover that she has sold them out to Cayman.
At Cayman's campaign fundraiser, Thursday and Monday fight in a women's restroom, with Thursday accidentally shooting Monday. Meanwhile, Tuesday and Adrian broadcast Thursday's video footage of the child's incineration, leaving everyone at the event shocked. The now-traumatized crowd directs its attention on Cayman, who angrily confronts Thursday before her bodyguards pull her off. Monday comes out of the restroom brandishing a gun. Joe shoots Monday, thinking that she intends to kill Cayman, and Adrian kills Joe.
As the crowd flees, Monday reveals to Thursday that she is pregnant and asks her to not let the C.A.B. take her unborn twins. Thursday realizes Monday sacrificed her sisters in much the same way their grandfather cut off their fingers, in order to protect her children. Monday dies from her wounds. The Child Allocation Act is abolished, and Cayman faces the death penalty for her actions, which she continues to insist were necessary. Thursday, Adrian, and Tuesday (with a new artificial eye) watch Monday's and Adrian's twins develop in an artificial womb. Tuesday declares Terry to be her new name, while Thursday declares hers to be Karen (henceforth becoming the "real" Karen Settman). As the camera dollies out, hundreds of babies are seen and heard crying in one enormous ward, as nursing staff care for them.

It reminds me of a childhood book called “Among the Hidden”

[cinnamenroal]

No cuz i thought they made a movie based on the book Mondays Not Coming. That book was traumatizing but would be an amazing movie 😭

[gamerose]

Fun fact: there's a Sims 4 Challenge where you have to pretend you only have 1 kid...

[Def_Not_Mar]

Context: this movie is about a grandpa who’s daughter passed away while giving birth to 7 identical kids, in the city they lived in, there was too much population so if you had more than 1 kid they took that kid away from you, the grandpa was scared so he named them each day of the weekend (Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday) since they needed to go to school they just decided that your name was the only day you could go out, the girls used her mom identity for work and school.

This movie was really fun so watch it if you haven’t
