I feel that I have lost years off of my life from watching this film.

Ari Aster is the master of horror. Not only does he know how to make a bright spring day feel haunted and creepy, he's an expert at bending space and time for his transitions. It will be a while before something catches me off guard like this movie did.

Be warned Midsommar is not a horror movie, it's an art film covered in a thin veneer of gore. It is not scary, it's not frightening, just long with a few gross-out gore scenes sprinkled in.

The movie spends most of its run time showing you scenes of people eating, drinking or singing. These are really pretty scenes mind you, the cinematography is on point, but they are also excruciatingly long. The movie could easily be trimmed by 30 minutes without affecting the barebones plot at all.

The horror element is supposed to be the cult rituals but most of them were so absurd that I and the rest of the (few) people in the theater laughed instead. There was especially one scene with a bunch of nude older women that was downright hilarious, although I very much doubt that was the intent.

If singing Swedish people frightens you then this is a must watch, otherwise don't bother.

If "what the hell did I just watch" had a category, this movie belongs there. The characters are unrealistic analogs and extremely stupid. The plot felt forced and that "love scene" was an awkward mess.

The kind of film where you say, "I liked it....................." and then add tons of dots after.

While I loved the overall ambiance of the film and impending sense of dread, I could've done without the moments which were so jarring they were comical, and so absurd the felt silly. These scenes dragged me out of the film and doused my fear.

Not quite as scary as Hereditary but does a great job at making you feel uneasy the whole time. It's shot beautifully. Florence Pugh is terrific. She was really the only character I cared about. It is very slow and I'm still not entirely sure what happened.

Any more pretentious and it would have an art degree.

A unique, disturbing and quite beautiful horror film with trippy visuals, grotesque violence and graphic moments that once you see them, YOU CAN'T UNSEE THEM. Ari Aster continues to shock and amaze with a detailed exploration of pagan rituals, mysterious communites and heartbreak inside a dying relationship; through the running time, this film bringing cathartic moments of psychological (and at times physical) pain, delusion and insanity. At its very core, Midsommar is a perfect nightmare experience that gets even better once you unheart the demented horrors hidden in plain sight.

Visually impressive. Nothing else is though.
Tries hard to be deeper than it is.

Don't waste your time

I meeean...

It was unsettling and gross. But scary? There's nothing scary about this movie. Mainly, the only creepy thing is the dissonant string music. I like horror movies, but more of the subtle, psychological kind. This one was too artsy and presumptuous for me.

I guess the takeaway is don't consume weird shit strangers give you. Also, stay away from cults.

Shining a light on one of Sweden's annual festivals, this documentary will thrill you, enthrall you, and remind you never to visit the country. I'm joking, of course. This is another imaginative horror from director Aster that, like Hereditary, will give you more to think about than the average cookie cutter genre outing.

I am so confused..It makes you feel uneasy since the first minute and it's disturbing as hell..I think it had to be less sick than it was..Ari has something unique..I can't compare it to hereditary because hereditary was pure horror film..But this one..This one was sick..Superb directing,brilliant photography and all the scenes were beautifully shot..I suggest you to see this unique movie but be prepared for tough 2.30 hours..
