John Constantine has literally been to Hell and back. When he teams up with a policewoman to solve the mysterious suicide of her twin sister, their investigation takes them through the world of demons and angels that exists beneath the landscape of contemporary Los Angeles.
Somehow I feel this movie in a way focuses more than others on feet. I know it sounds strange and I might be alone in my perception but hey this might be useful information for someone.Read more

With the announcement that a Constantine sequel was in development, decided to give this another watch (probably last time was when it was released on DVD). While I'm really not that big into the supernatural horror genre and have only basic knowledge of the Hellblazer comic, I still found this one mildly entertaining and for 2004/05, the effects weren't too bad, with the hell sequences looking pretty dang interesting, hopefully gets more exploration in the sequel. And Reeves was decent in the lead. **3.0/5**Read more

There are hell things on earth and only Keanu Reeves to give them a good kicking! This is a hugely imaginative vision of a movie, not a direct copy of the comic it was spawned from but still a fantastic creation. This movie is one of a kind and well worth your time.Read more

Decent movie. Has some pretty crazy possessions going on. The movie does tend to drag on a lot though. Hard to keep interested till the end.Read more

After her sister rather uncharacteristically takes her own life by jumping from an hospital roof, detective “Dodson” (Rachel Weisz) determines to enlist the help of “Constantine” (Keanu Reeves) to help get to the bottom of things. He is renowned in the world of the menacingly spiritual, and so she hopes that he might be able to help her explain what drove her sibling to kill herself. It doesn’t take him, and his cabbie sidekick “Chas” (Shia LaBeouf) very long to realise that there are demonic activities afoot, and that none other than the angel Gabriel herself (Tilda Swinton) might have a hand in things. “Constantine” has been to hell, he has seen it’s atrocities and knows that he is destined to end up there himself unless he can convince God to intercede and allow him into heaven instead. To achieve this, he has dedicated his life to apprehending the malevolent spirits who cannot yet enter our world, but who can still cause mischief and mayhem, and despatch them back to their netherworld. Crucial to his detective work on this case is going to be the chair in which the last man in the city was electrocuted. This acts as a conduit to hell, but “Midnite” (Djimon Hounsou) is it’s keeper and he knows that to leave well alone is probably best. As their investigations deepen, both realise that they are at the centre of a plot that could see the entire planet fall under the control Satan - but can they thwart this plan in time? Both Reeves and Weisz are on good form with this well paced and creepy production that does take it’s time to get going, but once we get up an head of steam it’s a solid mystery with more emphasis on the story and the characters and less on the visual effects as it unfolds. Swinton features only sparingly, but both she and Hounsou add something to the sense of the menacing whilst LaBeouf brings a little light-heartedness to the plot with his amateur, but sometimes quite effective, contributions. As the battle lines become clearer for all, the film builds successfully to quite a gripping denouement that does ask a few questions about the nature of good, evil, heaven, hell, ambition and glass roofs. To be honest, it isn’t a film you are likely to recall for very long, but it is quite original and I did enjoy it.Read more
