Review of The Rite (2011) by Jordi T — 15 Jul 2011
The Rite pretty much fell flat for me. I thought the story was all to similar to other films centered around Exorcism. By that I mean they aren't really about the practice. They are about the one sole priest who is having a faith crisis and the Exorcism is used as a backdrop to show their return to faith or complete loss of it.
Been done too many times and was recently done, kind of, with The Last Exorcism; another film that severely disappointed me.
Anthony Hopkins was superb but isn't he always?
4/10.
