Review of Midnight Special (2016) by Jyrojyro — 16 Aug 2017
Definitely had a tinge of the Steven Spielberg magic throughout, with a mysterious story helped by excellent performances from Michael Shannon and Joel Edgerton. The atmosphere that was created (in part by the excellent cinematography) was often awe-inspiring, feeling ultra retro and subtly futuristic at the same time.
Despite the ending being a little anti-climatic, Midnight Special is a strong sci-fi debut for Jeff Nichols.
