| THE RITE |
Michael Kovak (Colin O'Donoghue) is actually not too sure will explore the science of religion. Because it also was not too enthusiastic when he had to go to the Vatican to deepen his faith. But as they say, no one knows where destiny will take us and meeting with a priest named Michael Lucas (Anthony Hopkins) is also a change of view of Michael's side.
Michael went to the Vatican to study exorcism or exorcism. Because not too sure, Michael was not too serious in the study. Only after meeting Lucas, Michael began to waver principle. Although initially skeptical, but slowly Michael began to believe in supernatural things that are beyond human reason. How not, Lucas took part in an exorcism ritual and there Michael witnessed many strange events that could not be explained with logic.
Lucas was not the usual Exorcist. He has a very unique method. Michael Kovak Lucas brought into the dark side of faith and meet with the demons that inhabit the world of darkness. Thanks to Michael Lucas is also aware that not everything can be explained by reason. Sometimes it takes a very strong conviction to be able to do something. To be able to defeat the Devil, Michael should have a very strong conviction.
The title THE RITE or roughly means 'ritual'. When reading the synopsis must first show is The Exorcist and the impression that it is totally inevitable. But comparing the two films of different generations do not seem feasible. However The Exorcist have more points that do not easily match other films.
Back to THE RITE, as a horror film, THE RITE has several advantages that make it stand out among the other horror films. To be sure, in terms of acting THE RITE can not be equated with most horror films that the average B-Movie category alias low berbujet films which are not suitable for consumption. At least there is the name of Anthony Hopkins in there and about acting, the British star of this one was no doubt.
In addition, Mikael Hafstrom, the director, also did not want to be too caught up with conventional trick often used other horror films. Small surprises are still there but the overall atmosphere of horror Mikael able to build both of nuance to the way of shooting. From there, acting their supporters do not look so vain, although perhaps it would not bring them into one of the Oscar nominations.
What is clear, THE RITE indeed a horror film but despite that the film is still presenting something different. At the very least, quite fun to see there is a horror film that not only exploiting sex, violence, blood and screams of women.
