In my review of
Transformers 4 I touched upon the uncanny resemblance of it to
Peter Jackson's
The Lovely Bones. I have not seen the movie when I did that. I knew it existed. I knew what it was about. I've only seen it now, for the first time. And the uncanny resemblance ( as in, the father is played once again by
Mark Wahlberg and the villain is played once again by
Stanley Tucci and we have
Steven Spielberg's involvement ) is rather strange. It begs a rather profound question, what was the point to make the movie?

So here is a movie from
Paramount Pictures that was executive produced by
Steven Spielberg with
Stanley Tucci playing a villain and
Mark Wahlberg playing a dad of a teenage girl. The movie touches on very hard emotional topics of sexual abuse and age discrimination. And
Peter Jackson does a very good job... Oh... wait... it's not
The Lovely Bones... ah... yeah... so...
Transformers: Age of Extinction!!!

Midsommar is not a horror film

On the very basic surface level it could be read as a horror film. It is slashery in nature. It has very gruesome body mutilation scenes. But the film feels less of a horror and more of something like
Nicolas Winding Refn's film
Only God Forgives. Only this one has
Ari Aster written all over it.
