Midsommar
Several friends travel to Sweden to study as anthropologists a summer festival that is held every ninety years in the remote hometown of one of them. What begins as a dream vacation in a place where the sun never sets, gradually turns into a dark nightmare as the mysterious inhabitants invite them to participate in their disturbing festive activities.
Critics Sentiment
Christian burns alive in bear suit as Dani slowly smiles
Christian decides to write thesis about Hårga, angering Josh
The film jumps from its lowest point during the academic rivalry subplot to the shocking ättestupa ceremony, gaining 2.6 points as it establishes the commune's true horrific nature.
Midsommar builds from a strong traumatic opening through a deliberately paced middle section that some found slow, before escalating into increasingly disturbing and acclaimed horror sequences. The film peaks with its haunting finale, which critics praised as a masterful culmination of its themes about toxic relationships and finding belonging, even as many noted the divisive pacing and unconventional approach to horror.
