    Watched George Clooney directed Netflix film The Midnight Sky. It's very stagey, definitely didn't quite translate from novel to film and reminded me of about dozen other, better sci-fi films. But it was basically fine.

    The Midnight Sky is a two-hour cinematic sleeping pill disguised as profound science fiction. George Clooney abandons his natural charm to direct a disjointed, humorless slog where absolutely nothing of consequence happens. I hated, hated, hated this movie. #moviesky #filmsky

    Honestly I hate Rotten Tomatoes. The Midnight Sky, a structurally and emotionally perfect movie, is at 49% on RT. Make it make sense.

    Reviewing movies in 25 words or less: The Midnight Sky (2020). It feels like this was meant to be a series but didn't have much content. So instead they made a movie without much direction.

    Welp. Terrible movie. Not even in a fun way. :/ Do not recommend. Started watching The Midnight Sky, though, and so far, this is EXCELLENT.

    I just watched 'the Midnight Sky' which is phenomenal, for the second time and the absolute worst scene in that movie revolves around that song.

    Film 6 of 2026: The Midnight Sky. I liked this scifi film about a man with a terminal illness in a remote outpost while the rest of the planet suffers a catastrophe and a the crew of a spaceship returns to earth. George Clooney does a good job and you don’t see the twist coming #filmsky #moviesky 🎬

    I love, love, love Goodnight and Good Luck. He also directed and starred in a really underrated sci-fi film a few years back called The Midnight Sky, which I found tremendously moving.

    Just watched The Midnight Sky, a coldly apocalyptic film with George Clooney, and separately from its (rather meh) qualities as a film, it is absolutely the perfectly wrong thing to watch right now as our world is systematically dismantled from within.

    Movie Snake - 01/07/2026: 9/9 Correct Score: 1137 (top 26%) 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 www.moviesnake.io Why yes, The Midnight Sky does stick in my head because it was released Christmas 2020 and MA theaters had to close again on the 26th so I did a lonely triple feature that day

    The Midnight Sky (film): George Clooney is an astronomer barely hanging on as the last human left alive (also terminally ill). He sets himself the task of contacting the last active spaceflight crew, to advise them to not return to Earth. About as much fun as you'd expect. Easy-to-guess twist.

    I go A to F, but I’m university coded. C is average (3 stars or thumbs up or whatever). If my overall average is 3, then I’m grading correctly and/or watching too much garbage. The last film I watched was “The Midnight Sky” and it got a “D”. And I love George Clooney.

    #TheMidnightSky, on #Netflix, is a thoughtful and different variation on the #space exploration to save humanity genre combined with #global #apocalypse. It has flaws and is a bit too long and slow, but overall it's pretty well-done. The end credits roll over the final, silent scene, which has a profound weight. It's absolutely beautifully and brilliantly done.

    Okay, I get it: I have seen many critiques about this movie relying upon inaccurate science and featuring plot holes here and there. I admit to a bell going off in my head when our main hero Augustus seems to exhibit no death-like characteristics after diving into frigid arctic waters. But I have a tendency to suspend my disbelief in science fiction movies if the characters, the dialogue and the general story keep my interest. What kept me connected to the action was not the spaceship stuff,…

    Watched #TheMidnightSky. Liked it. Better than #Interstellar, not as good as #Arrival.
