Midnight Special is in many ways a very straightforward tale, but the enjoyment comes from the (very) slow unfolding of the clues, a couple of strong set-pieces, and very controlled but powerful performances from the leads (Shannon, Edgerton, Dunst and Driver in particular). The very deliberate and careful pacing may put off some viewers, but patience pays rewards for this simple, well-considered and interesting film.
