It’s the best film he’s made in years.
If The Covenant were only an interrogation of the hollowness of American exceptionalism, as its first hour suggests, it’d be among the most honest portrayals of the country’s role in the region. But Ritchie eventually awakens from his stupor, pushing this combat-action flick to gonzo territory.
The movie’s messaging has a righteous and educational undertone that makes this a worthy addition to the genre.
