Some people really don't like this film but I'm one who does enjoy this thrilling idea. The lovely Ki-joo Jin plays a deaf girl and also her mother whilst there is a serial killer around. True this is a simple idea with a half a dozen people and a few streets and running around as well as also in the girls' house, it is still very fast and very scary. Their impairment makes it difficult with a killer on the loose but at least they can talk together without the killer understanding. I love the fact that this takes so little to make it good and I loved it.

The lovely Ki-joo Jin
Difficult to enjoy
The pro's
- The relationship between the mom and the girl was really sweet
- The acting was really good and carried the film
- The deaf "gimmick" made the basic premise more original
The con's
- I usually don't mind them in moderation but Midnight had way WAY too many dumb and unrealistic contrivances one right after the other that absolutely killed any and all suspense
- I didn't get the whole scene where the girl talks with the killer . We don't learn anything new about him other than his "evil" and doesn't really give a damn ...It's weird because Korean dramas typically have more character development
I can't say that I hated it but strictly as a movie it failed due to the incredibly weak script.
You may skip this movie
After all such amazing thriller movies Korean cinema has given us , this movie fools that it's another thriller but it's too silly and dumb scenes that are created just to make it look like thriller .
