Not as good as the trailer

Rating: 6/10 (29 January 2008)

Constantine I would say is a average action/comic movie, Keanu Reeves tries hard to make the audience believe he is a tormented soul.
The trailer initially caught my attention as it was dark and grim.
But the movie is nothing like the comic book; everything is changed, John Constantine is no longer a cockney; instead he is from LA and is Catholic.
In the movie Constantine commits suicide and is sent to Hell some how he escapes and begins a path of righteousness.
In the comics the character is a fun loving atheist, (in a sense) He never really fights the forces of evil.
But I guess Hollywood needed to sell the idea and they tried their hardest.
