Best Times Film Review Ever
You needn't follow the link; Nathan Lee's review of The Covenant follows in its entirety:
WHAT'S THE 411 ON THOSE WITH GUYS?
By Nathan Lee
“Hey, what’s up? I tried calling you last night.”
“I know. I was at a movie.”
“What’d you see?”
“ ‘The Covenant.’ ”
“What’s that again?”
“It’s that movie about these guys who are witches, and they go to this creepy school, and there’s this new kid — Sebastian Stan — who’s, like, the bad witch, and they fight and stuff. It’s super lame.”
“Are they cute at least?”
“Totally. The main guy, Caleb — Steven Strait — has, like, these big lips and sexy eyes, and he drives a Mustang, and everything. And he’s friends with this crazy, like, blond dude, who looks kind of gay, and this motorcycle guy with long hair and some other guy. Actually, the whole thing is kind of gay. I mean, they’re on the swim team, right? And there’s this scene where they’re all in Speedos and everything.”
“Awesome. I think I saw the commercial. That’s the one with a car that explodes and gets put back together by magic, right?”
“Yeah, that’s pretty much the coolest part. The effects are super cheesy. Like at the end, when Caleb is fighting the evil transfer student, they fly around a barn and throw magic Jell-O at each other. I’m totally serious.”
“Is it scary, at least?”
“There’s this one part, where these spiders crawl all over this girl and go in her nose and stuff.”
“Ew.”
“Super ew.”
“The Covenant’’ is rated PG-13 (Parents strongly cautioned). The film is violently banal.
