Loved Hereditary, bored to death at Midsommar

Rating: 5/10 (14 September 2019)

What a pity. The first sequence sets a disturbing mood only to become a poor excuse for two and a half hours of a single character development curve, while people are chanting, dancing and making other equally uninteresting/sleep inducing things to see on a horror movie. This wasn't entertaining in the slightest bit, it was simply boring... Not scary, not interesting, a bit intriguing at parts but definitely too funny for its own good. It doesn't pay off in the end. I think every director should ask themselves if they really want to subject audiences to movies this long... Maybe Ari got lost in his own success from Hereditary, because this was really bad. I only give it 5 for the photography and main actress' performance, all the rest kind of fell apart along with the (very basic) story.
