Quote

Based on the Japanese film, Midnight Sun centers on Katie, a 17-year-old sheltered since childhood and confined to her house during the day by a rare disease that makes even the smallest amount of sunlight deadly. Fate intervenes when she meets Charlie and they embark on a summer romance.

They likely made this move because they don't want the film to compete with Acrimony. The problem is, March 23rd now has five wide releases on the same weekend- even with their differences in genre, releasing against that number of films may prove difficult.

 

Also, the synopsis makes this seem like Everything, Everything. No doubt the films will be compared to each other.

I'm not sure about this.

 

I think a lot of critics are gonna peg this for being corny and cliched.

 

It feels a little bit like a Wattpad story in my opinion.

I keep thinking it's that (fifth?) Twilight book, the one from Edward's perspective that never got published.
