Sober Film Critic James Brown80 - There is no denying that Midnight Special is a fascinating film. The creative science fiction mythology at the core of the movie, the endearing performances from our lead actors, and direction from Jeff Nichols that oscillates between tender and thrilling all make this film something worth seeing on the big screen.

Bryan Lienesch77 - Definitely a different kind of thriller. Somewhere in between real life and sci-fi lies 'Midnight Special'.
