Title: Laughable
Product review: When taking a first glance at the Covenant, it's not hard to see how bad a film this truly is. Directed by Renny Harlin, who once showed a promising career with Die Hard 2, Cliffhanger, Deep Blue Sea, and the Long Kiss Goodnight; but has faltered as of late with recent fiascos like Exorcist: The Beginning and Mindhunters; the Covenant revolves around a group of descended male witches who look as if they just walked out of an Abercrombie & Fitch catalog. Their posh lifestyle is threatened to come to an end when an adversary rears his head, or something like that. The Covenant is one of those films that you just wonder how it got made. Harlin's action set pieces are just plain sloppy and uninspired, making one wonder if this really is the same guy who brought us the aforementioned films. As for the rest of the film, including the atrocious acting, lame CGI effects, and overuse of thunder and lightning effects; well, you get the idea. Don't waste your time.
