This is an action film with very little action, a horror movie with very little horror, a religeos film with its' own religeon.
Constantine is a film that has more to say and more ideas than most hollywood films ever even consider. For a start it's set in a world where God and the Devil exist, where half-breed angels and demons walk the earth and where a lone chain-smoking mystic is fighting for his very soul. The character of John Constantine is actually one of the best things about the film, he's the sort of absolutely desperate wooden hero Keanu Reeves is actually the best choice for, like 'speed' a single shred of plausibility would ruin this.
The story is very complex but easy to understand.
The soundtrack is a suitable mix of tech-rock and operatic spooks.
Basically; if you're looking for a Politically Correct peice of tea-with-the-vicar no-sex-before-marriage fun, go away. If you want a mindless action peice with cheasy one liners, go away. If your looking for a startilingly intelligent screw-the-establishment-and-the-preists-and-all-authority thriller that gives you high rewatchability and simply oozes pure cool, you've found your film, enjoy.
NOTE : some may be offended so you should probabley rent first before buying, whoever you are.

Constantine is a story of a demon hunter who is able to see demons from hell walking on our plane,within humans.Starring Keanu Reeves and Rachel Weiz this is a great film which would appeal to anyone who likes the darker side of evil with humans playing the parts of angels and the devils servants as seen only by Constantine.Rachel Weiz`s character has a twin sister who seems to commit suicide and jumps to her death ,bringing the two together.

A really great gripping thriller, splenty of supernatural tension but bags of action. Rented it originally and could definatley watch it over. One of Keanu Reeves better films.

  Constantine-a great film staring Keanu Reeves

<b>This type of film is one of those who rather love to watch or get bored half way through etc
My opinion is that i liked it a lot and Keanu Reeves plays the title character John Constaine whos kind of Good guy who spends most of his time fighting pure evil from hell and Rachel Weiz of the Mummy films plays a kind of Love Interest.

The Special effects were superb and amazing.I especially liked at the start where they had done a sort of devil possession in a young women in a similar vien as the Exorcist.
Keanu reeves as we know has played a range of characters in films that he has done and i would say this film ranks among those ones where is acting ability is excellent
I would recommend this film to those people who like action,suspense and a bit of science fiction throw in</b>

Although not usually a fan of Reeves, I enjoyed his portrayal of Constantine; a man who is condemned to hell for committing the great sin of attempted suicide. He attempts to return into God's goodbook by exorcising demons but gets caught up in the middle of a demon's plot to take control of earth.

A nicely done film with plenty of action, nice acting, and a decent plot. If you're into films about hell, heaven, demons and the such this is a film for you. An easy and enjoyable watch.
