I am itching to re-watch Ari Aster’s “Midsommar” next week. Mostly because the first time around I was expecting something in the same vein as “Hereditary” but ended up getting a horror-comedy ode to the end of a relationship. It turns into heady stuff, but I’m confident that I may like it a bit more the second time around (you can take a look at my B scoring review from last week). Then again, its blatant similarities to “Wicker Man” did irk me … the movie does have familiar narrative beats, which render it less original than it thinks it is. In other words, it’s not as singular-feeling as “Hereditary.” Regardless, the movie is splitting critics with a 74 Metacritic score.
