Leave your thoughts about The Ritual.
| The Blogging BansheeMolly HeneryThe Ritual is a character-driven film that takes four friends down a sinister and unearthly path. |
| The LensAndrew WyattThe Ritual adeptly establishes an oppressively doom-rich atmosphere, and then proceeds to pitilessly slash into the viewer's subconscious with some genuinely chilling, uncanny horror imagery |
| Blu-ray.comBrian OrndorfBruckner strangely elects to simulate the extremely long and physically draining journey, leaving suspense more of an afterthought than a priority. |
| CineVueChristopher MachellThe Ritual admittedly brings little new to the table in terms of pushing the horror genre forward. Nevertheless, as a genre exercise it is superb, and as a study of a modern masculinity in crisis it has surprising depth. |
| Vanguardia (Mexico)Carlos Díaz ReyesIt has enough atmosphere and rhythm to achieve a pleasant, even chilling experience. [Full Review in Spanish] |
| Total FilmMatt GlasbyEntertaining, engrossing and at times genuinely unnerving, Bruckner’s bad trip is one for horror fans to relish. |
| The PlaylistKyle KohnerWhile The Ritual is an incredibly shot and confident horror picture that does manage to crank up the tension for the first hour, an unfulfilling finale and subpar execution of commonplace motifs add up to a forgettable experience. |
| Hindustan TimesRohan NaaharThe Ritual is the finest, pure horror movie since Get Out. And if we're being even more traditional with our definitions, you'd have to go as far back as 2015's The Witch to make a suitable comparison. |
| IGN MoviesWitney SeiboldWhile not exactly transcending the familiarity of its very predictable genre, The Ritual is a spooky, shadowy horror film with good character work, an excellent mood, some provocative themes, excellent lighting, and a scary... thing... that horror fans will love. |
| The Tracking BoardDrew McWeenyMuch of The Ritual is about mood and creeping dread, and Bruckner does that very well. |
