Well you see the significance of the actual fuck at the end is to make you, the viewer, as uncomfortable as the ex-boyfriend feels in the situation he has willingly put himself into

I recommend that movie to patrons every so often, when I tell them it's a horror in broad daylight. They don't believe me.

More pike "don't piss on the culture of people you don't understand, ignorant tourist."

Also maybe don't be an ass to your S.O. (both directions)

Idk it's been a while since I saw it.

Nah, something some people were starting to say was like "Aw yea what a girl boss, that boyfriend got his just desserts! Good for her!" instead of "Oh, a cult manipulated and took advantage of a woman and her circumstances to trap her into their sect through a feeling of "belonging"."

The fact that it also happens to be a white cult doesn't help the fact of course (because there are similarities to how white nationalists get people too, of course not exactly like this but the general manipulation) but it's more about them taking advantage of her.

Thats definitely part of it! A lot of viewers miss all the signs that the commune are white supremacists. A common takeaway people have at the end is unironically good for her

I watched this movie and then the original Wicker Man shortly afterward and I was surprised by just how similar they are. I ended up liking Wicker Man a little more, it was funnier.

Some weird takes in here but it is the best movie

original Wicker Man is also great - similar story outline of course yet the execution and meaning are completely different

I don't think there's anything wrong with the good for her interpretation. Perfectly valid if you ask me. But it's only one side of the tale really - the film's ending is also part tragedy as well.

Just wait until they see The Hills Have Eyes

As a whole, an awful movie.

But if you take the first 15 minutes and last 15 minutes and remove the two hours in between, you have a really good ass movie.

Great list of movies there.

I dont think Midsommar belongs on it though! Not because it isnt a great movie, but I disagree with that reading of it.

I don't like the film very much at all, after the cliff scene I feel it takes a drastic downturn. I expected way too much because Hereditary is my favorite horror film and I am have since been going into almost every A24 produced film thinking it'll be just as good or better somehow. Midsommar was the first of a line of these that I watched after Hereditary, and considering they share a director I was expecting to love it. I just didn't; mostly for that second half, and a lot for the elongated sequence I'm sure everyone will know without me describing it exactly. It started to feel like one of those "this is art" sort of moments, where the point of film started to be lost for the sake of being artsy.

But that said, I do feel the people who subscribe to that first feeling you described by the end are a lot worse than the others. If you like the film, okay I guess, I don't agree personally but if you tell me you like it for that reason I'm super annoyed with you rather than just in disagreement.
