[Double Feature] Midnight Special

4/28/2017

 
David: There’s very little I can reveal about this movie without giving too much away. I feel like it’s a bit like Arrival in that sense. However, I will say this – director Joe Nichols (who did a movie...
Shannon: Midnight Special starts off with a missing child news report, Alton was kidnapped from his adopted father from the "cult" grounds in which he lives. The people here believe that Alton is a God...

David: At one point in this movie, we see a woman in bed basically get molested by Zeus, who is essentially a storm. So you see a woman thrashing, and lightning around, and then the husband walks...
Shannon: I'd have to go back and look at the Top 100 list we posted last year, but was this movie really one that I chose to watch this year? Or perhaps I meant the one that stars Dwayne Johnson? I don't...

Picture

by David

When you hear “Lifetime movie”, there is an instant image of a movie that forms in your mind. It is normally A) dramatic, B) has a woman protagonist, and C) features some kind of violence and sexuality. This movie easily checks off all these boxes. I’m not sure if the writers were going for this...

David: Ok, so where were we? Oh yes, Power Rangers. This time, it’s Saban’s Power Rangers. If people really expect us to call it that, they’re dumb. I can swallow the Mighty Morphin...
