Midnight Special (2016)

Some sort of commune, the government and a mum and dad vie to get their hands on a young boy whose eyes and hands glow and who seems to have an otherworldly ability to cause destruction, in this morose scifi road chase movie stuck in low gear, that goes nowhere slowly with only glum monotone passengers.
