The series serves up a raucous blend of humor, action, and emotional storytelling.
Its performatively extreme imagery thinly masks a rather banal view of male subjectivity and inner conflict.
Throughout, Midnight Sun’s tone vacillates jarringly between corny, broad humor and unrestrained treacle.
The film is an artless, puerile shadow of the likes of Edgar Wright and Simon Pegg’s Cornetto trilogy.
