Quick Hit

A love triangle thrown into the ropes and told with muscle.

Full Take

The Ring is less about boxing than ego, lust, and humiliation under hot lights. Hitchcock punches up the melodrama with crisp visual storytelling and a sharp feel for bodies in motion. It is lean, bitter, and stronger than its reputation.

I honestly think this is elite. It might not be perfect, but it does so many things right that it doesn’t matter.
