Movie Review - Midsommar
Midsommar is a mind blower. It starts slow but it picks up steam -- and not just a little steam, but a lot. It is probably one of the most explicit movies I've ever watched.
I went in expecting not to like it, because it seems I've hated every A24 production I've ever seen. They fully redeemed themselves with this one.
I'm still trying to figure out exactly what I saw. RunPee Mom went with me and there was not a silent moment on the way home. We were both able to shed light on each other with the things we noticed. This is a great movie to see with a group of friends; you'll be able to talk about it for hours.
It's very artistic. I'll be honest: I don't usually like those types. I'm more of a comedy or horror movie fan. Scare me and make me laugh, but don't make me think too hard. That's what I have to do in life -- just entertain me please. Midsommar gets a free pass. I was entertained and shocked.
The way they filmed it made me think I was tripping on the intense drugs they were using. The cinematography was amazing. One word comes to mind: psychedelic.
