Reviews for The Girl from Monday
As satire, it doesn't add up -- but it's an admirable, if dull, experiment.

Hal Hartley's 'fake sci-fi movie about the way we live now' is a misfire, suggesting occasional winks of satire while taking itself so seriously that you're left wondering when to laugh.

A snarky satire of consumerism in the guise of pseudo sci-fi.

A flat, tedious film that, while perhaps accessible to a mainstream audience, would probably bore them, while indie-philes would admit that it simply has no substance.

Unconvincingly attempts to update the futurist dystopian traditions of Orwell, Huxley and William Gibson.
