Constantine

Pros: good story, action packed, perfect role for Reeves, has Rachel Weisz
Cons: chemistry between Reeves and Weisz, minimal dialogue

Let's cut to the chase. Constantine was a good movie, and well worth seeing if you are into supernatural thrillers. It has a lot to offer to moviegoers, and it is very action-packed. Keanu Reeves and Rachel Weisz star as the two lead characters, and ...

Pros: Excellent motif of good verses evil and the blurry lines that develop.
Cons: Definitely not for children, some material is disturbing and could lead to bad dreams.

The opening of the movie Constantine (2005) is truly weird and at the same time creepy. Immediately upon putting this into the DVD player, I thanked my lucky stars that I did not shell out the big bucks to go to the theater since I had to click ...

Pros: Rachel Weisz; Djimon Hounsou; special effects
Cons: Keanu Reeves; changes from the source material

There is something to be said when one has the ability to see both half-angels and half-demons secretly walking the Earth. Just acknowledging this fact is half-insane in itself. The other half comes from actually conversing with them. Unfortunately for ...

Pros: Interesting plot. Entertaining. Decent cast for the most part.
Cons: Reeves. Changes will bother fans of the comic book.

There are many comic books being made that I know nothing about. I have first learned about some characters only because a movie was made. I learned about the Hellblazer< i> comic book when the movie Constantine< b>< i> was made. ...

Pros: great special effects; scary moment or two; acting was pretty decent
Cons: script; unlikable hero; confusing, strange ending

NOTE--Dr. Freudine is a young, fictitious psychiatrist and my alter ego who sometimes helps me to review books and movies. Last time she discussed Night Falls Fast: Understanding Suicide with her boyfriend. ***************************** Disgruntled, ...

Pros: Keanu rules, cool CGI, original story
Cons: Slow in the end, weird theology

Constantine is a suspense thriller based on a comic book of the same name. Keanu Reeves stars as John Constantine, I man who sends demons back to hell. He has a gift that allows him to see demons posing as other people, and it took him years to see the ...

Pros: pounding, vivid, with solid acting and an interesting premise
Cons: story silliness, action that's a little too late, ponderous first act

Entire volumes are dedicated to the proposition that Keanu Reeves can't act. By now, consensus has crystallized into dogma. All that keeps it from becoming a Jeopardy question is Constantine - a film with digital effects as fresh as chewed gum, images ...

Pros: Rachel Weisz
Cons: Bland Story

When you hear of actors like Vin Diesel, Arnold Schwarzenegger,Jet Lee, Bruce Willis, and countless others, its not difficult to think of them as action stars. Heck, some like Arnold and Jet that is all we consider them to be. But... Keanu Reeves?? ...

Pros: Actor's chemistry. Intriguing religious themes.
Cons: Mediocre CGI. A couple of gratuitious and pointless film sequences.

I’ve been waiting for months for the film Constantine to come out on DVD. I thought I was going to have to wait a few more months, since my local video store could give me no information on when it was going to be released. Finally, about a ...

Pros: Visuals, Ms. Weisz
Cons: Keanu Reeves; direction; plot

The Struggle. On one side, Good, the other side, Evil. On one side God, the other Satan known in some circles both Greek and Christian, as Lucifer, the Devil, the number one Evil-doer. It is a struggle as old as mankind, which by the way is ...

Pros: Great performances by Rachel Weisz, Tilda Swinton; fun story; special effects
Cons: Keanu Reeves

Almost every time I see a movie starring Keanu Reeves, I walk out of the theater thinking, I would have really liked that movie had the man shown a speck of passion or acting skill. Unfortunately, Constantine was no different. I’m ...

Pros: Good effects, some resemblance to the comic in the writing
Cons: Keanu + Hollywood = Crap X 2

There are times I feel like Keanu Reeves has stolen the greatest roles of my generation and wasted them all. Actually, I feel like that anytime I stop to think about it. I have never been a huge Hellblazer comics fan (that's the VERTIGO label comic ...

Pros: …
Cons: …

I remember seeing the coming attractions for this movie and thinking how it seemed interesting. John Constantine is a man with a past who’s hoping to get into Heaven by killing evil half-breeds, which are basically Hell’s minions operation on our plane ...

Pros: The most unusual 'quit smoking' regimen I've seen anyone use!
Cons: Drags a bit, potential to be overwhelmingly broody, and a bit choppy in places.

Have you ever felt watched when no one was there, or felt like the rope in a game of tug-of-war where you can't see the players? Have you ever felt as if there was more going on just below the surface of the life you could see all around you? John ...

Pros: dazzling special effects, engrossing story
Cons: feels longer than it's duration, Angela's character

Let me first disclose that I am ignorant to the DC/Vertigo comic, Hellblazer, this film "Constantine" is based on. So if you want to know if the movie is faithful (no pun intended) to its graphic novel roots, you'll have to look elsewhere. As for whether ...
