The Covenant

i bought this movie when it first came out and got around to watching it i could have waited forever.This has to be the worst movie i have ever watched in my life.They forgot to write a story and do anything special with the special affects.They took a good idea for a movie and dropped the ball big time.do not buy this movie its a waste of time i want the 97 minutes of my life back i spent watching this turd.No there is nothing it its thats good

basically its a b movie that was made with a list price.

4 rich guys with super powers contend with some other yuppie who wants their powers. that's about it. nothing else, or even that, is remotely interesting.

the rich warlocks go around using their powers for anything, which btw, every time they use them they grow prematurely older. which perfectly explains why they use them for trivial things, such as lock picking, and car maintenance (which includes front windshield repair.) sure its addictive, but still is nonsense.
reminds me of merlin's shop of horrors.

o the dragon ball energy ball fights were freaking amazing. not good amazing, but i almost fell out my chair laughing amazing.

luckily i bought it from a bargain bin ($5). but its not really worth that price. not memorable, and coasters come in better styles.

Since I'm a fan of horror and the occult arts, I thought it was about time I checked out The Covenant. Luckily for me, I rented it.

Within the first ten minutes of the movie, it was clear to me that Hollywood made this for a certain demographic: teenagers who have short attention spans. This movie did not deliver but isn't that the norm nowadays when it comes to directing a film.

The acting was subpar, making me believe that casting for this flick consisted of going to the local burger joint at an upper middle class town and pointing a finger at those people needed for an upcoming witch movie. Truly a sad thing.

The plot wasn't all that bad but it needed professionals to develop it and not the crew that worked on The Covenant. I hate having to keep using this line but "it had so much potential" and that's the truth.

Bottom line, if you have teenagers who like the supernatural like watching the television show supernatural, then by all means buy them this DVD. However, if you want you and your kids to watch something more thought provoking but centers around the supernatural or the occult, then buy them the MGM double feature DVD of Kolchak: The Night Stalker/The Night Strangler. Even though it's dated, you simply cannot go wrong here.

Though this movie isn't exactly an award-wining epic or a piece of cinematic excellence, it is extremely entertaining and a perfect piece of escapist fantasy. The story line is very good as well as the special effects and the cinematography. The main actors are delightful to look at as long as you don't judge them on their acting ability. This movie won't make you question the meaning of life, but it will provide you with a few hours of entertainment.

Not a bad movie i think was too busy watching the guys yummy when they are together.. But for real was watchable a little predictable but still watchable.
