Critics Consensus

Despite solid production values and an intriguing premise, Constantine lacks the focus of another spiritual shoot-em-up: The Matrix.

Blazes few new trails and bogs down in a confusing narrative muddle.

I deeply loathe the Heaven-and-Hell genre to which this cinematic comic-book spectacular belongs.

3/10

Since the various goings-on are abnormal, puzzling, metaphysical, and embellished by dated computer graphics, it’s difficult to get too wrapped up in the plot.

Constantine resembles nothing so much as a punctured tire with a slow leak, letting all the air seep out until what’s finally left is flat and fairly ineffectual.

The Angel Gabriel and Satan are some of the best depictions of well-known Bible characters that I’ve ever seen on screen... A breath of fresh air in today’s hyper-cookie-cutter style comic book movie world.

The Man who told Heaven: "No", but did he regret it? I was recommended to watch this movie for a long time, now I think I can see what the praise is for. I suppose it would also make sense why a demand for a sequel would be high. Because well we want to see more, it's like watching Avatar (2009) and being told we'll never this world ever again (good thing we did get a sequel{s}). Keanu Reeves does great as John, the story overall, as in: The plot, writing, pacing, and overall lore was very well executed. Somehow the CGI in this film as well was so well executed. I won't spoil anything in particular but the all the demons looked very good for a 2005 movie. I had a good time with the story John went on here, and it had some pretty good sort of hype moments as well. I don't really have much to add on from here. In Short: A Dark Horse that managed to be a near masterful.

Liked the light in the darkness scene; disliked the overcoming smoking plot-line.

Look watch for yourself and see a cult classic of horror and well led story driven writing. You will recognise a number of the actors apart from Keanu. Pretty cool, pretty dark love it.

**Movie Review: *Constantine*** I enjoyed watching *Constantine* because it combines action, mystery, and supernatural elements in a very interesting way. The story kept me engaged from beginning to end, and the visual effects were impressive for its time. Keanu Reeves did a great job playing the main character. The movie explores themes of good versus evil in a unique way. Overall, I think *Constantine* is an entertaining film and I would give it 4 out of 5 stars. ⭐⭐⭐⭐

I would not consider this a horror movie but it is still very good the reviews said it was bad but I do not agree. It was fun with cool visuals I would recommend. I did find it kind of confusing though but I figured it out.
