Poor, beautiful Antinous, sacrificed so that his beloved Caesar might declare him a god, but the fate of his cult and his imperial admirer was one of ruin and despair. And what of the proud Diana and Hebe, champions of womankind, sworn to avenge the suffering of Mother Earth at the hands of a violent Sun. For as the god fell from the sky, the lovers were engulfed in the flames ...
可惜角色塑造流于表面,过于脸谱化,好人一味善良、坏人纯然邪恶,缺失深度挖掘,难以给人留下深刻印象。
情节老套是这部影片硬伤,观影不久便能猜中后续走向,如同嚼蜡般缺乏惊喜,难以勾起深入探究欲望。
部分情节的发展较为平淡无奇,但整体上并不影响观影感受。
观影全程如坐针毡,冗长拖沓、乏味剧情,加上糟糕视觉听觉呈现,既无娱乐价值,更谈不上艺术熏陶。
从观感上讲,The Ritual越往后越好看一点,不是那种开头强后面散的感觉,至少不是那种一眼劝退的类型。
