What to Know

Critics Consensus

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

Nell Minow Common Sense Media Visuals and attitude -- not for kids. Rated: 3/5 Dec 22, 2010 Full Review Brian Lowry Variety Blazes few new trails and bogs down in a confusing narrative muddle. Oct 18, 2008 Full Review Andrew Sarris Observer I deeply loathe the Heaven-and-Hell genre to which this cinematic comic-book spectacular belongs. Oct 18, 2008 Full Review Allison Rose FlickDirect When Constantine debuted, it received mixed reviews, but in retrospect, critics may have been overly harsh in their initial assessments. Rated: 3.5/5 Feb 17, 2025 Full Review Douglas Davidson Elements of Madness It may not be a comic-accurate film, but it’s smart enough to create rules that it follows from start to finish. Feb 16, 2025 Full Review Sean Axmaker Stream on Demand Days are seared by burning sunlight, nights swallow the world and bring out the demons, and Hell is an Earth burning in the nuclear fires of Armageddon.

Adzz S. I honestly don’t care what anyone thinks, but this movie deserves way more recognition. Keanu Reeves did an incredible job playing John Constantine—his struggle between battling evil on Earth and seeking approval to get into Heaven was powerful. Seeing a character who knows where he’s going after death is both sad and moving, especially since he accepts it. But the way he tries to change his fate—and imagining God saying no, that he’s still going to Hell—just hits different and really hurts. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/05/25 Full Review Craig H A very solid, maybe under appreciated movie, love the hellish dark vibe and some of the visuals. Constantine is like an exorcist version of James Bond and I really like Keanu Reeves in this movie, fits him perfectly, badass and cynical is a great combination. Rachel Weisz is a worldie here! Damn. Holds up very well for a 20 year movie too! Story is abit messy though and drags abit at times. Surprised we never got more films in this as the world building is pretty cool. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 08/27/25 Full Review CaptainBoulder T Very over the top but I like it Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 08/22/25 Full Review Emma C Awesome movie. Great performances and interesting premise. Action with a deep insight into serious, all-time human quandaries. So glad to hear a sequel will be released in 2025! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/20/25 Full Review Chief B Gets too much hate for no reason at all Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 07/27/25 Full Review Rennan O O roteiro do Flime e meio lento o Flime não teve tempo suficiente para o personagem não foi bem construído mais a atuação do keunu Reeves e excelente mas o final é meio fraco Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 07/13/25 Full Review Read all reviews
