For all the nasty genre flourishes in director Kwon Oh-seung’s box of tricks, the result is never exploitative.

Rated: 3/5

Guardian

Kwon can’t resist over-egging the pudding in the final act with a protracted, borderline-silly finale; but even that excess makes it interesting.

Rated: 3/5

Bloody Disgusting

Kwon Oh-seung's debut feature enters the pantheon of breathless thrillers, delivering a propulsive, unpredictable film that's lighter than most of its ilk but no less intense or well crafted.

Rated: 3.5/5

Midnight is a solid piece of horror escapism, but suffers from a tendency toward familiar narrative and psychological shortcuts.

“Midnight” is a fast-paced thriller that hits all the jump scares: A mother and daughter who cannot hear or speak. An insatiable serial killer. A former Marine trying to save his younger sister. And a bunch of incompetent police officers.

Rated: 3/4

Tales from the Paulside

Midnight is a pulse-pumping thriller with ample bursts of white-knuckled suspense.

A random viewing, and its definitely worth a watch and plays an interesting spin on how to handle different forms of visual cues to scare our protagonist. In this movie, we explore a deaf woman who comes across a serial killer. The movie gives you a hint of danger that a deaf person might face in a world where people rely not only on sight, but sound. I think more movies could explore this facet of horror.

Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars

Good performances, thrilling premise & one time watch. The plot dragged to much pacing is very slow & lots and lots of stupid decisions done by both protagonists & antagonist's part!

Rated 3 out of 5 stars

This movie is just a series of dumb logic. Every character makes every single stupid decision imaginable throughout the movie. The fact that every single turn of event just makes the situation worse is just plain lazy writing. It is uncomfortable how dumb the characters are. Does not make sense at all.

With some suspension of disbelief, this movie is really great. It gets creative and clever with the situations you can't get with a normal protagonist; I like that the protagonist unable to speak well or hear creates new situations of tension.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

The movie is made for brainless people. They made the movie just for the heck of it. My blood pressure raised due to the dumb logic. The scenes at the police station was so idiotic that thought why did I go to school and college to learn reasoning.
