the Covenant tells the story of John Kinley (Jake Gyllenhaal), a soldier from the United States who has a mission to Afghanistan to expel the Taliban. Kinley also recruited an interpreter named Ahmed (Dar Salim) to make it easier to communicate with local residents when looking for the Taliban. However, trouble came when the Taliban troops actually ambushed Kinley and his team.
This film highlights the close brotherly relationship between Kinley and Ahmed, who actually come from two very different cultures. This is what makes The Covenant a war film with quite a deep story.
The main stars of this film are Jake Gyllenhaal and Dar Salim who play John Kinley and Ahmed respectively. Of the two names, of course you know Jake Gyllenhaal better because he is already a top actor who has starred in many well-known Hollywood projects. However, the actor whose performance managed to steal the show in this film is Dar Salim.
The film was promoted under the title Guy Ritchie's The Covenant. There are two reasons for using this promotional title, namely so that the title is not the same as the two films titled The Covenant which were released in 2006 and 2017 or to emphasize that Guy Ritchie is the director. However, if you watch the film, the possible reason has to do with Guy Ritchie's status as the director
