Action: 2/3 + Comedy: 0.5/2 + Love/Sex: 1/1 + Plot: 1/1 + Music: 0.5/1 + Good vs. Evil: 1/1 + Special Effects: 0.5/1 = 7/10 or 70%.

Midnight Express is an effective drama about being removed from one's naive elements. It begins as an action flick with drug smuggling, evolves into a political drama centering on trust and religious ethics, and dwelves into an essay on how mercy is tantamount to a country's greatness. The acting is respectable and the message harsh yet more neutral than expected: one does not need a rocket launcher to kill a butterfly.
