Underrated Comic Boom Adaptation

Rating: 7/10 (19 July 2019)

The first time I even knew about the character of John Constantine was on the CW show Arrow. He was different and I found him interesting that I began to do more research on his comics and found this film. I had no idea Keanu played this role and it was a pleasant surprise. He was a darker and grittier character than on CW and I loved it all more for that. The lore was interesting and had a different take on all of it with the story of Gabriel and The Devil - which by the way I loved the way the actor portrayed the Devil, making him almost likeable. Whenever I hear about comic book films, I never hear this one mentioned which is strange because it is quite good. This is a top five Keanu Reeves film for me!
