Good attempt, but fails to leave a lasting impact.

Ari Aster is on a roll. To be fair, Midsommar is only his second feature film, but along with fellow horror auteur Robert Eggers, his movies are so rewatchable he can be forgiven a few future duds in his career. Where Eggers excels in making complex horrific period pieces, Aster excels at making you super uncomfortable with the real, unreal and surreal. Just like in his debut Hereditary, he shocks you in the first act with a "did that just happen?" moment that leaves you slack-jawed. And unlike Hereditary, the majority of the movie is is shot squarely in the 24/7 daylight of a Sweden summer. That doesn't ease the tension at all as things go all Wicker Man on this travelling band of worst-friends-ever. And a final shout-out to Florence Pugh. She shone as the lead portraying complex emotions purely with her face. Fantastic.

Tons of symbolism, foreshadowing, backed by incredible cinematography and a phenomenal lead performance from Florence Pugh. May not be everyone's cup of tea, but if you can stomach the gore it's worth every minute of it's 2.5 hour runtime.

Ari Aster continues to showcase his bizarre yet deep storytelling with Midsommar. While pacing may feel profoundly lengthy, visually the film grabs all sense and takes it into a psychedelic trip while also conveying some disturbing and unsettling images and performances that may require more than one viewing to truly bask in the message of this provoking film. 3.8/5
