- Critics' reviews
-
-
"Profoundly mediocre supernatural thriller."
-
"Harlin, with his customary visual brio, has created a film that is deliriously watchable. It's just not all that interesting. In the end, The Covenant is simply a glossier version of TV's 'Charmed.'"
-
"'The Covenant' is dopey, formulaic stuff for the Friday night fright crowd. Worse for them, it's never remotely scary."
-
"For the most part, the proceedings are slow, solemn and tedious."
-
"As boredom sets in, the viewer realizes that 'The Covenant' does possess one magical power: It afflicts its audience with restless leg syndrome."
-
"It fails utterly as a horror picture, although it delivers plenty of PG-13-rated flesh and unintentional laughs."
