Blazing Minds (92 KP) rated Hereditary (2018) in Movies
Nov 1, 2021 (Updated Nov 3, 2021)
Hereditary seems to a bit of a Marmite movie at the moment, I’ve seen so many people praising it and just as many hating it, but if you watch the movie with an open mind, take in the subtle clues, watch the shadows, enjoy the amazing cinematography and delight in a well edited and produced movie then Hereditary is a movie that for me has been one of the best movies that I’ve seen this year and that’s saying a lot, as there have been some damn good movies out there.

An enjoyable, original book.
Oh how I love a bit of dystopia. This time, people 'lose' their shadows, and with the loss of their shadows comes the loss of their memories. The added twist, is that when they are losing their memories, people begin to be able to do remarkable, scary things. Magical things.
We follow Ory and his quest to find his wife, Max, after her shadow disappears. She leaves to protect him. There are also two other main characters whose stories we follow - an olympic trained archer and the Amnesiac.
I loved this. The narrators were excellent, and for such an implausible concept, it just seemed so likely! For a book with magic, it didn't seem wildly fantastical. Why SHOULDN'T this happen? It makes a change from a killer virus (for the record, I like those kinds of stories too, by the way). I really liked the descriptions of those who lost their memories - the way in which it happened sounded a bit like I would imagine those with Alzheimers or dementia lose their memories. This book is about how important our memories actually are, how they shape the way we live our lives.
A very good book/ listen (I listened to this on Audible)!
