The Covenant
Four young men who belong to a supernatural legacy are charged with stopping the evil force they released into the world years earlier. Another great force they must contend with is the jealousy and suspicion that threatens to tear them apart.
This movie combined all of the elements of the supernatural. Everything from witchcraft to borderline superman powers. Some of the effects were similar to those seen in the most resent Star Wars series but with their own twist. The young actors did an excellent job with their intensity of character but the plot still lost something. Maybe there will be a series continuation similar to the Underworld franchise that will explain more of the covenant’s background.
Steven Strait has definitely grown since the movie Sky High and has a similar intonation to his voice as Ryan Phillipe. It would be worthwhile for him to branch out into a role that is more grounded and non-action related. The film contained many young new faces in the film industry that will be worthwhile to keep track of. Overall an excellent vehicle with a good plot, acting and effects.
