Beautiful and hypnotically original.

Rating: 9/10 (4 March 2020)

While a lot of viewer's may find this film on the pretentious side, a lot on the other hand will feel relieved with it. Beautifully shot and well executed Ari Aster's "Midsommar" is unique against the Hollywood norm of filmmaking in it's psychological style of horror presentation. Free from unnecessary cheap jump scares and an overabundant amount of gore, this film is a great reflection of an upcoming filmmaker having fun with his work and enjoying what's being made. The director's cut of the film would have won a higher rating from me however director Ari Astor unfortunately had to cut pieces out for a theatrical release.
