Undecided

Rating: 5/10 (5 April 2020)

To call Midsommar a piece of art is in my opinion as far fetched as to call it a waste of time. It's probably something in between. This said I anyway don't get the hype nor the hate. There are some good things, esp the lead actress is giving a convincing performance as the troubled and somewhat lost and lonely main character. Her journey from a codependent mess to a Maien queen is worth watching. I also loved the movie cover! The story itself is not brand new however the inspiration from Swedish mythology and ancient culture provides a good alternative to similar flicks. So what's not to like? Maybe it's the pace, maybe some of the psychedelic images, maybe some rough and primal scenes. It's in deed hard to put my finger on it...
