Review of Midsommar (2019) by Groptimum — 16 Sep 2019
This is simply a very powerful, masterfully made film, from a writer/director that has an astoundingly sure vision and command of all aspects of filmmaking. The setting, cinematography, shot choices, acting, writing and music / set pieces are impressive and the whole thing really packs a punch.
I didn't even know anything about the film when I chanced it at an arthouse pub/theater in Phoenix AZ and I was knocked right out of my seat. I'm not normally a "horror" guy but this movie is so smart, fierce, honestly suspenseful, weird and meticulously made- I told a bunch of friends to please go see it.
People who are knocking any aspects of this film- I don't know what world of mindblowing masterpieces they're used to seeing in the theaters to make this one not great. It is super unique and undeniably powerful.
