In summary, overall one of the better comic book adaptations.

Rating: 9/10 (20 March 2005)

Firstly I would like to share my disdain by all the non-believers such as the mister.Calihernia with the idiot review. But lets move on to more important things...
The film is based on a popular comic and as a fan of the series I'm pleased with what they've done overall. I found the movie as a whole flowed well, it kept my interest throughout. Keanu's character was a dark vigilante who helps Rachel Weisz (a police detective) with a personal case thats more complicated than it seems. Heaven and hell are fighting on earth as their battleground.
I think he played the role quite well, despite his dark edge he also managed to be quite humorous at times. They are some interesting characters. I thought the script lacked substance, at times, but overall its an enjoyable movie. Its quite dark at times which sets the scene quite nicely along with the storyline.
