Playing at local movie theaters
13 TZAMETI ** 1/2 This French-made mix of "The Most Dangerous Game," "Fight Club" and "Saw" has its share of tense moments. French with subtitles. Running time: 90 minutes. Not rated, probable R (violence, profanity, gore, drugs, vulgarity).
THE COVENANT Thriller based on the comic book miniseries about a sorcerous pact. Not screened for critics; to be reviewed next week. Running time: 97 minutes. PG-13 (violence, sex, partial nudity, profanity).
FACTOTUM *** This askew look at a life of drift and impermanence has a subdued, modest grace. Matt Dillon stars. Running time: 94 minutes. R (profanity, sex). Sean Axmaker, Seattle Post-Intelligencer
THE PROTECTOR ** Thai action star Tony Jaa has plenty of astonishing fighting moves, but he lacks presence and the plot for this revenge-thriller is ridiculous. Running time: 92 minutes. R (violence, profanity, gore, vulgarity, brief nudity, brief sex, brief drugs, racial epithets).
MIDNIGHT MOVIE
THIS IS SPINAL TAP *** 1/2 Rob Reiner's hysterical 1984 mockumentary about a past-its-prime heavy-metal act. Running time: 82 minutes. R (vulgarity, profanity). (Tonight and Saturday, Tower)
