Midsommar (2019)
6/10
Pros and Cons. You decide!
24 July 2019
Let me give objective pros and cons, and then I will present my personal opinion:

Pros:

1- Good story. Don't expect something original anyway.

2- Good ending, but it really depends how do you understand it.

3- Good cinematography.

4- Good acting specifically Florence Pugh.

5- Good building of tension and suspense.

Cons:

1- It is really too lengthy. Scenes pass too slowly. Expect to get bored several times in the movie.

2- Most of the time is wasted on marginal details, while the most important scenes are passed quickly.

3- Very stupid behaviors of some characters who are supposed to be smarter. This is frustrating in the movie.

4- A main character who can significantly enrich the movie died early. This makes most of the remaining of the movie revolve about poor repetitive ideas.

Now my personal opinion. If the movie is shortened to only 90 minutes, and postpones the first dying character to the end scenes, I can rate this movie easily with 8 or 9 points. But getting bored several times in the movie with a lot of repetitive ideas, this will decrease my rating to 5.
