If the bet between hell and heaven has been made on earth, J. Constantine is ready to gamble.

Rating: 8/10 (26 March 2005)

Maybe the biggest advantage I had, comes by the fact of not having a clue of who John Constante was before seeing this movie. So I've been able to avoid comparisons with the comic, and I gotta say, if the comic is better than this, I've been loosing my time reading Dante's Masterpiece.
Constantine is so a rich character, that you won't want to get up from the sit. The kind of guy that carries a cross and keep it up. Just like if it was a habit, he continues his life, but hates it. He's rude, violent and bad-tempered, and even that, we feel secure under his personality.
The greatest achievement of the movie, is definitely the mix between atmosphere and characters; the amazing version of hell, and the interesting theory about earth's good and evil balance.
Technically superb, from special effects to photography, guys have been doing the homework, and show it up here.
So if there's such a thing like demons on this world, I'd really like John Constantine to be my cousin or at least my friend. Most of you will tell me that rather to be John Constantine your own, but that work is already pretty well done by Keanu. Enjoy it!
