I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.
This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.
what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.
This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
As far as horror films go, the first half was fairly average. However, the second half was laughably bad. Awful effects, a rushed storyline, and an inconclusive finale. The acting was the redeeming feature.
Really, only 'Get Out' and 'The Invitation' have come close for me. Hereditary's basic plot isn't actually all that innovative, but everything is done so incrediblly well it'll keep you on the edge of your seat throughout. I want to say so much more about this film, but doing so would ruin the experience for anyone who hasn't yet seen it. You should absolutely go and see it as soon as possible.
I saw this movie because it had a good score on this site, but neither me nor my three friends enjoyed it. Most of the time we were wondering what this movie was about.The story is very weak, it's barely scary at all and the acting was bland or even wooden. One of us wanted to leave mid-ways and the thought crossed my mind too.
Best horror film of the last 20 years. A masterpiece in every aspect of film making. Ari Aster is a genius!
