Lion Heart 15,041 Posted July 6, 2019 Author Share Posted July 6, 2019 The score was phenomenal  The acting and the scenery- I loved all of that. It was not what I expected, but I liked it. The director, Ari Aster, said that the original movie was supposed to be longer but had to cut down the time. I hope there is a director's cut one day because I'd love to see that. Can we appreciate this masterpiece:  âââââââââââââââââââââââââ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HotLikeMexico 3,916 Posted July 6, 2019 Share Posted July 6, 2019 Iâm actually gonna see it in a bit. I hope its as good as Hereditary. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronnie 4,813 Posted July 6, 2019 Share Posted July 6, 2019 Itâs not quite as good as Hereditary but very close. Very disturbing! The comedic scenes are very intentional but done in a way thatâs more of a nervous laughter as youâre thinking âis this really happening right now?!â âDid I really just see that?!â The imagery and acting are superb. It definitely stayed with me long after I left the theatre. I canât wait for what he comes up with next! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LateToCult 36,313 Posted July 6, 2019 Share Posted July 6, 2019 I was gonna see it soon but my sister wanted to tag along so I decided to wait because from what Iâve heard it might not be a movie I would feel comfortable watching with a family member.

Morphine Prince 96,072 Posted July 6, 2019 Share Posted July 6, 2019 I loved it. WARNING: This movie is definitely not for everyone. Just like Hereditary. Ari Aster creates art. Not just a flick with jump scares like many horror movies usually do. I find his filmmaking to be intelligent and you can tell research was actually done on the subject at hand. To me this movie was about co-dependency and the death of a relationship. I loved that it had comedy incorporated because it contrasts with the disturbing aspects of it. I also find it genius to have a horror movie be almost completely in broad daylight. Iâm so happy weâre experiencing a directorâs journey as Hereditary and Midsommar are his only two feature films and I got to see both in theaters. Ari Aster is brilliant and I cannot wait for more of his projects. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
weed 66,823 Posted July 6, 2019 Share Posted July 6, 2019 Spoiler I would give it an 9/10!!! I thought it was good, but had some problems. I loved the acid/lsd digital effects they did, the grass growing out of her hand, etc. The plot was pretty solid, decent, but idk.. some parts were off. great cinematography, score, good casting, male nudity. definitely some "omg I can't look at this" moments, he TAKES it there. He WENT there with this movie. The female lead.. was good for the most of it but the last quarter was just idk.. after the screaming (iconic) it was just a little weird. Loved the Swedish aspect, new and I've never seen anything like it before, featured a lot of the Swedish language. Â Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnWayne92 2,082 Posted July 6, 2019 Share Posted July 6, 2019 I actually very much disliked this film. It was 2 1/2 hours and I feel like there wasn't enough pay off. I ADORED Hereditary. It still haunts me to this day. It was an incredibly disturbing film that disturbed me on an emotional level. Midsommar just didnt live up to that. I was here for the opening, I was here for the first crazy/disturbing event that happened, and then, even tho it was interesting, I feel like nothing really happened. Everything that could have shocked me was done off screen. The acting was great, the score was great, the imagery was great. The penis was great as well. I'm all about a naked bear cub đ. When it ended tho...I was just left wanting more and upset that it was so long. I dont think I could have sat through a longer version of that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aster is one of the few horror directors with a distinctive style, and who can create dread like no other. I donât think Midsommar will be quite as enduring as Hereditary, but itâs still a thoroughly inventive and disturbing ride. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
