Like the end of any breathless chase, it cant help but feel like a slight letdown.

Midnight Special isnt exactly verbose, its story instead told with a stolen glance or a murmured phrase.
Den Of Geek

Thus with Midnight Special, Nichols takes another ambitious step as a storyteller: hes made a studio thriller.
Den Of Geek
4.5
But a very good film full of excellent performances & a solid logical premise once u accept the proposed reality Watched it with our 11 year olds.
Common Sense Media
4.5
Weirder stuff begins happening, but thats best left to the movies telling rather than mine.
Austin Chronicle
4.5
No, you dont want heavy handed exposition but Nichols holds back character information to such an extent that it makes it difficult to piece together ..
Collider
4.5
In fact, the film is so unassuming that the ultimate payoff that we spend so long waiting for isnt quite worth it.
The Young Folks
4.5
Overall, this is a tremendous film narratively satisfying, visually striking, and with a teasing theological subtext, if thats your bag.
The Guardian
4.5
This isnt a movie about plot, and if it were, wed correctly call it trite and worn out.
Flickfilosopher
4.5
The approach makes for a fleet, relentless movie that doesnt bog down in exposition and explanation.
The Verge
4.5
The addition of very familiar genre elements at the end of the movie doesnt fundamentally change the soul of the movie.
