A scifi film in search of other world in different dimension.Concept was okay , the way they carried this movie is also fine but that buildup they create for it is useless. Take shelter was another similar movie from Michael Shannon which had a better ending despite being a slow runner at middle but here in Midnight special , there is hardly any logic were things just movie on as if its all disconnected. Having LED's beneath the Eyes and palms is not enough with simple parallel universe concept towards the end. Destruction of satellite, origin of the boy, Exposure to sun , Puzzling coordinates, end of days concept all doesn't add up to it or properly explained.. Easily it could have been one of best sci fi films at recent time but with amateur execution its clearly spoiled. Can be watched once just to experience sci-fi elements but it got nothing more to deliver.
