Challenging but fantastic film

Rating: 9/10 (1 July 2020)

Other than a few thin characters, Midsommar otherwise fired on all cylinders. The plot was original and compelling, the characters are deep and intriguing(with the exception of a couple), the dialogue is realistic and colorful, the cinematography is stunning yet disturbing, the acting is phenomenal and innovative, and perhaps the greatest strength is the message. There are many about grief, family, acceptance, and toxic relationships. The ending served the movie right and leaves the viewers on the perfect note. There is no question people will hate this movie because of its challenging nature, however, while this is a difficult film to watch and analyze, it's really worth it in the end.
