Interesting but drawn out...

Rating: 7/10 (24 February 2005)

You could've put this into an hour long series, plain and simple. The acting in my opinion was good and that was the only thing other than the special effects that saved it. It was too drawn out and slow. That seemed to be the only draw back to me. I thought they did a really good job at keeping it understandable to an audience. Most movies like this get very theological and most people are going 'huh, what?'. The average person that goes to see a movie like Constantine has the mind depth of a teaspoon. What I really found refreshing was the fact they didn't put Keanu Reeves and Rachel Weiz characters together romantically! It would've made the movie worse! However they did have some tension between them and that was all that was needed. I recommend seeing it, but wait till it comes out on video.
