Guy Ritchie’s The Covenant (2023) Film Review

Surely the dumbest name for a movie ever, given this unexpectedly superb step out of his comfort zone for Mr Ritchie, can only be hamstrung by wedding itself to his signature style. Both leads Jake Gyllenhaal and Dar Salim are excellent, but the shock is Ritchie getting the tone so right for a serious post Gulf war film, sonically and visually - it's closer to Lone Survivor than anything in his filmography. I once derided him but the last four films are his best run.
