    69/100 A group of friends go to a secluded village in Sweden to experience the Midsommer festival. Little did they know... Chopping out about 45 mins of film may have given it some much needed energy. Despite the long-winded nature of belaboring a few points beyond their need, this was an immersive and mesmerizing clash of cultures and how it affects the newcomers who're completely out of their depth. This is not a horror film, per se, but there's no denying the ever present insidious tension and anxiety in an apparent Utopian paradise. Gorgeous photography. -- DrNostromo.com

    If you like the folk horror genre of film, no doubt you’ll enjoy Midsommar. Befitting of the genre, there is the unsettling isolation of not just location, but of language, customs, and culture. As the film unfolds, so comes the “great” deception, a characteristic of the genre that envelopes its characters, ex., newcomers, outsiders, etc., in dread, even death. While Midsommar plays a bit too long before its “payoff,” something 2024’s Get Away, a comedy/folk horror film also set in Sweden, suffers from as well, it is worth a watch for its suspense, unease, and a “what would you do?” question if in a similar situation - run (for your life) or stay (as a guest). Most assuredly, as an audience member, you keep wanting to shout “leave, leave now!” 🍿

    Waaaaaaaaaay too long. Any good parts would add up to about 4 mins. Sure there's a deeper meaning but that in itself is meaningless and uninteresting. Some are saying it's just a tale about a woman in a toxic relationship. lol The guy was trying to be nice and wait for the right timing and the woman was definitely mental. I've seen a few thousand movies and this is one of the worst I've seen. Ever.

    The extended cut doesn't add that much, but it is weird that one scene is in pitch dark. I don't think there were any other night scenes in the movie. Such a great movie.

    Love this movie so much. I have watched it about 7 times and will eventually watch it at least 7 more. Ari Aster is a great director.

    Interminable and painfully shallow, with another infuriating non-ending just like HEREDITARY. A movie made by imbeciles for imbeciles.

    Ridiculous. One of the worst films ever made. But it appears to be satisfying to viewers who don't have any clue about the horror genres. Watch a Val Lewton film instead.

    Talentless Ari Aster received inexplicably positive notices for his previous film, the terrible HEREDITARY, so he gets another chance to waste millions of dollars on another piece of crap. This has a wretched script, annoying characters, and another non-ending just like HEREDITARY. Ugh! And it's insufferably pretentious too. Watch a real horror movie instead.

    Starts as a bad ripoff of THE WICKER MAN (1973) and gets worse from there. Director Ari Aster doesn't have a good or original thought in his puny little head, and anyone who sat through his previous film -the massively overpraised HEREDITARY- should know to stay away from this crap.
