Uneven, but gripping nonetheless. Jake Gyllenhaal was fine. Dar Salim was amazing. (In case it's driving you crazy too: Parker is Homelander. I had to look it up 😂)

Thank god for Dar Salim STELLAR performance. Otherwise this would have been a waste of time.

The budget constraints are painfully obvious at times, and I feel the kinship between Gyllenhaal and Salim could have been fleshed out to much better effect, but overall Covenant manages to carve out a compelling, engaging war movie with a great score and some solid tension throughout.

Good, enjoyable and well paced. Jake was pretty good in the movie and Dar was quite amazing.
