Leave your thoughts about Midnighters.
| National ReviewKyle SmithIdeally, a story like this executes one sharp turn after another while keeping its wheels on the road of plausibility. The Ramsays have pulled off that feat with aplomb. |
| Cinemalogue.comTodd JorgensonAlthough it requires a buy-in to its coincidental premise, the awkwardly titled film effectively weaves horror elements into its crime saga while providing some solid twists along the way. |
| ReelViewsJames BerardinelliA compulsively watchable thriller that represents a calling card for the Ramsay brothers for the movie industry. |
| RogerEbert.comBrian TallericoIt’s a smart thriller that features a few truly dumb decisions. |
| Daily DeadHeather WixsonA crafty potboiler that offers up more twists than a piece of rigatoni, Midnighters is wrought with a palpable tension that hits amazing heights during the film's final 20 minutes. |
| Film InquiryAlex ArabianMidnighters is an impressive screenwriting debut from A. Ramsay and a solid effort from J. Ramsay. However, Haney-Jardine and Essoe impress the most, stealing each scene and selling this Hitchcockian and Lynchian thriller. |
| The LensAndrew WyattMidnighters doesn't do anything that hasn't been done before, but it executes its formulae with a kind of cold-blooded focus that's consistently impressive and often downright unnerving. |
| The Hollywood ReporterFrank ScheckWhile its convoluted storyline never fully convinces, Midnighters never lets up on the tension, making it easy to go along with its contrivances. |
| ReelTalk Movie ReviewsBetty Jo TuckerI think the casting is perfect...[the Ramsays] work together well. I think we will be hearing more from this filmmaking pair in the future. |
| Film InquiryManon de ReeperMidnighters is riddled with unbelievable decision-making and weird, contradictory lines, delivered rather stiffly by the actors. |
