Ritual

About This Movie

Ritual (2025) is a slow-burn drama that captures a moment in time with palpable tension. Set in a deserted cul-de-sac, it zeroes in on Jack and Ralph, two teenage boys whose silence speaks volumes. It’s not just about what’s said or done; it’s about what lingers in the air. The atmosphere is thick, almost suffocating, and you can feel the weight of their shared gum and unspoken thoughts. The pacing is deliberately unhurried, demanding your attention while letting you ponder their lives. There’s a certain rawness in their performances, almost like a window into their souls. It’s distinctive in its simplicity, letting the quiet moments resonate. An interesting exploration of adolescence and anticipation, more a feeling than a narrative.
