Crappy film

Simple and well acted, it has tension enough to knot the stomach.

The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

Blistering performances.

The story is very week, the ending as well, the whole movie is unnecessary , I don't know why they've put in the money, time and energy to create such a very bad film with a very bad story

Just watch this movie if you are in for a good old eerie, occult atmosphere. For me watching The Ritual resulted in a satisfying movie night. FINALLY. Haven't seen anything like it for a while (The Witch perhaps.. ). As for films, I was craving something dark but enchanting. And I was happy to find one of the best takes on the friends & a scary forest genre. The Ritual really lured me into a mystery, right from the start. Some parts in the end were even quite touching. Not gonna spoil, it's really worth the try.

I read the reviews before i watched the movie and it sounded quite promising. I don't know why this is classed as a horror. It wasn't scary at all, it actually wasn't good at all. Boring, slow and nothing happened.

It is a film without artifice, but which is very well played, very well filmed, with a soundtrack of quality. The first thing that struck me is the realism and the quality of the texts. The characters are authentic, and the symbiosis in them is successful. Difficult to comment on this film without revealing too much.
