Afouotos Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

StyleSk8r At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

Aneesa Wardle The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

Sienna-Rose Mclaughlin The movie really just wants to entertain people.

BatBanks Smith The movie is stupid it for teens. It tried to be like The Lost Boys especially the begin of the film. It has laughable dialogues like the where Sebastian Stan's character insult another boy private in the boys locker room. The good thing about this movie they have cute boys.

Fluke_Skywalker Plot; Four young men, the descendants of Colonial witch families, prepare for The Ascension; a time when they will come to posses great power, but at a terrible cost. Plays a lot like The Craft, but without, well, the craft. Looking like a mid-90s WB pilot, it has lots of pretty people, a poorly thought out mythology and not a whole lot else. Strictly for those wanting to see a pre-Winter Soldier Sebastian Stan chew scenery and spout lines like "I'm going to make you my Wee-yotch!".

Leofwine_draca THE COVENANT is an appalling teen horror film directed by Renny Harlin, the once-great purveyor of such delights as DIE HARD 2 and CLIFFHANGER. The mighty have fallen and there's no evidence of Harlin's skill in this boring and derivative little movie that plays as a gender-swap rerun of THE CRAFT. After a promising credits sequence bringing to life images of the witch burning in Salem in the 17th century, we're thrown into a usual high-school type movie except this time you get the impression they're trying to make a HARRY POTTER-type film for teenagers.Straight away we're in the middle of poor CGI special effects used for no reason other than to show special effects and a bunch of utterly uninteresting cast members who couldn't act their ways out of a paper bag. Particularly to blame is the awful Steven Strait, whose lead Caleb has to be one of the most routine leads I've ever watched in a film. This guy has no personality whatsoever, nothing that makes him stand out, and I was yawning every time he appeared on screen. Then again, his insipid love interest is no better, and it's little surprise that Harlin films her tattoos more often than her face.This almost plot less mess involves four young warlocks who use their powers in the local bars and nightclubs until another kid at the school is found dead. Then it turns out a fifth member of the group, supposedly dead, is more than alive and the film ends with a battle between he and Caleb. That's it. The other guys hardly get a look in and the Draco Malfoy lookalike barely registers despite figuring prominently during the first half. The ending has to be one of the worst I've seen, just a couple of guys hurling 'magic bolts' at each other until one dies. It lasts about twenty minutes and the FX are as crappy as ever. It reminded me a little of the ending of THE MEDALLION, but even Julian Sands and Lee Evans look like distinguished thespians in comparison to the guys on show here.One sub-plot involves a 'spider curse' that causes horrible bugs to crawl over the female victim, but even these critters are poor CGI animations that rob any of the gross-out factor that might otherwise have resulted. Harlin is clearly bored of his role, acknowledging that his material is tired and predictable and choosing to focus instead on young girls in their nightwear and young men nude in the changing rooms in a hope to keep his audience's attention. It doesn't work. There's nothing to recommend in this film whatsoever.

Sasha Shapiro The Covenant movie was like every other urban legend movie that was made before. It had its mystic creature's (in this case male witches). There was the hot damsel in distress (Laura Ramsey), and it had the lost mystic group member that went stray, now he returned to make trouble.Like every other teenage movie it had a lot of pretty boys and girls … actually there were only 1.5 hot girls (the blond was a looker while the other one was nothing special). Those boys and girls supposed to be college students but all they do is party all night, swim in their college team, use their powers to show off, fight between themselves and try to stay awake during their classes. That is strange, from what I remember of my college years I had to work really hard and I didn't had a spare minute to waste. I guess the boys and girls from The Covenant are gifted and everything comes easy for them.The acting from most of the participants was …OK, the Covenant's cast has nothing to brag about, their performance was tolerable.The action and special effects were below average. The guys through invisible balls that supposedly blew up and caused fires, they could do so much better than that. Is it so hard to create a fire ball in CGI or make them through huge stones. Everything is better than an invisible ball of jellyfish they used all the time.Although the special effects sucked in the Covenant, the visual scenes and the way the movie was shot was very well done. Renny Harlin managed to bring classic Europe to The Covenant. The castles with the beautiful landscapes made the viewing experience better than expected.Overall this movie was average. I didn't follow most of the plot because when i was watching the movie i was exhausted from a long day at work, i was on neutral smeared on my chair. The only reason that the covenant can be considered as a cool movie is the fact that I wasn't my 100% watching it. If you are really tired (like i was) or really drunk like i wished to be, you will enjoy the Covenant.for more cool review check out - http://www.coolreviewsrule.com
