Cheyne Stokes Dead Man's Shoe

The rite

The horror genre should be treated with kid gloves, is one of the more complex styles of cinema at the time of capture it in 35 mm, as well as the drama must require a good film, excellent direction and perfect performances in short tears would make them throw the face and gestures, among others.

"The Rite" , bet is the new Hollywood thriller that brings the hand from beginner Mikael Håfström and based on the book Matt Baglio ; tells the story of Michael Kovak ( Colin O'Donoghue) who is disappointed with his father and family life, so he decides to enter a seminary and give their votes. Time passes and Michael will become a deacon, however write a letter of resignation to Father Matthew ( Toby Jones), citing lack of faith. As Father Matthew about renewing the faith of Michael something happens and the Father Superior says it's called a priest, whether or not faith. After reluctantly accepting an invitation to travel to Rome to attend a course on exorcism. During the course will meet Angelina Vargas (Alice Braga), a journalist who attended the classes to write an article for newspaper. Michael, due to its remarkable skepticism, is sent to speak with Father Lucas ( Anthony Hopkins), a known and unorthodox exorcist. Father Michael Lucas take the darker side of their faith.

just happens to be counted starring Anthony Hopkins to give the tape level, is getting around how great this guy has been in every one of his unforgettable characters , but his histrionics is not magic to save the two hours of boredom and bias that generates the tape. There is a kind of slow that it favors the film, when have spent the first 45 minutes, the film becomes unbearable to the point where you get to wanting it to end, if not for the scene of the cat which is surprising and makes you jump out of the chair (a tool which is repeated three times) you thought you had stolen the box office. Rite discarded conceptual audacity to focus on the traditional weapons of the movies: a clear narrative, incidental music, female protagonist, excellent picture, climax, flashbacks and special effects. With these tools properly managed by the director, peaks at intensity and delivers a lot of scary scenes, but there does not happen, and even more cash from the action the simpleton Colin O'Donoghue which keeps the same face nerd since I started up the most charged scenes , may have believed that the network was jejeje when you see that comes Hopkins in the plot think things will get better but nothing to see, this is another film demons, exorcist and possessed, conventional and unoriginal powerful . Making it clear that since "The Exorcist" (1973) to date are all seen in areas of bush-demons ...

That lack of originality, when there are end the confrontation father the devil, what do you expect? head spinning, or running stubs way across the ceiling like a spider, but this film is not keep up with what should be, it is easier to cite what the film lacks what turned out (one of the bunch). Indeed it is highly recommended not to waste time watching this movie which is supposedly inspired by real events, Iris Valera's face is darker than the film.

Score 3 / 10
