I absolutely loved Hereditary, seen it three times -- sharing it with others -- and enjoyed it more each go around.
Midsommar was a bit disappointing, it had its moments but ultimately was a just a bit mediocre, annoying and derivative.
I thought Beau Is Afraid started out well in the first hour: I have two family members with severe paranoid schizophrenia and so the overall theme of paranoia, nonsensical goings on and word salads scribbled everywhere really carried weight...then it fell into another lane where it got too arts fartsy and by the end Ari Aster had completely disappeared up his own arse.
As for this, given how I like Hereditary, that still carries enough weight for me to give more of his work a chance. But, -- and I'm not usually like this -- I don't think I can look at Pedro Pascal's face any more, it's just too much at this point. Maybe in a few years I'll give it a chance when he isn't seared into my memory from so much repeat exposure.
