Midnight (2021)

People only believe what they see

Great Movie, If you want a thriller and intense scenes then this is for you.

Story: The girl is a very strong and smart girl despite being deaf. She made decisions that actually helped her in the end. One wrong choice could lead to her death. Why is it thrilling? because the deaf girl cannot hear anything from her surroundings and a psychopathic killer is chasing her. If she was in your place then imagine the amount of fear she can get without the ability to hear or speak. She manages to keep calm all the time that's why she managed to get away from him. Not only the deaf girl but also the psycho is incredibly wise and smart that he can manage to turn what was happening and manipulate the people from his lies. The ending where he can't change the situation was the best thing ever. It also shows that people only believe what they see. The people think she was crazy but she was just trying to ask for help.

Acting: The acting was great, Jin Ki Joo did a great job portraying a deaf girl especially the scene where she tried to speak to him begging for her life. Wi Ha Joon acting did show the dark and creepiness in his face. Other cast was great too.

Music: The music was great, every beat makes my heart jump. The intensity of the music is like I was the one who is being chased.

Rewatch Value : I watched this alone, so I am sure I will recommend my cousins and friends to watched this movie with them in a movie night.

Overall : A GREAT MOVIE WITH AN INTENSE AMOUNT OF THRILLER.

One of the most frustrating thrillers I've ever seen

Midnight is basically a really draggy cat and mouse chase film with all the mice sharing one brain cell.

At first I thought this film would be similar to Blind, an iconic thriller which was also about a disabled female lead being chased by a psychopath after witnessing a murder. But I realized after watching that comparing the two was an insult to Blind.

Every single character was dumb and had almost 0 common sense (especially the cops). I had hopes for the female lead's mom as she was good at reading people but in the end, she disappointed me as well.

Overall, Midnight felt like it was written by a thriller rookie who did not do their research on crime and just decided to recycle bits and pieces of movies of similar concept.

**SPOILERS**

what kind of person thinks that telling a psychopath your dreams and goals in life would actually make him feel bad and not kill you lol also PTSD doesn't exist here apparently.
