Saturday's (2-10-07) Movie

"The Covenant" was the movie of choice for Saturday. I have to admit that I really enjoyed this movie. I can't say that is was without flaw, because it wasn't. Basic plot: 4 boys have magical powers (witchcraft) that is passed down to them as long as they are the eldest male. The bad part is that the more they use their power, the faster the aging process is and the power usage is very addictive. At 13 they realize and get a small portion of it and at 18 they get the whole shabang. 5 Families in total have this gift and one is thought to have been killed off. Next, boy meets and new comer wants revenge on the "Covenant" for past sins. Yatta, Yatta, Yatta. Final fight scene was short and left you wanting more. All in all, I give this movie a 7.5. I enjoyed it probably because I kept thinking how cool it would be to have those powers and what I would do with them. Anyway, it kept me into the movie. Visually it was awesome especially since it was on Blu-ray. I recommend seeing the movie.
