There is a new alternative Reason syntax (https://facebook.github.io/reason/mlCompared.html) which replaces some of the unusual syntax with braces and semicolons. Though it still probably looks less C-like than Swift. And I haven't tried writing anything in it, so can't say for sure if it really feels less weird than standard syntax on a "real program".
