Product: Constantine [Blu-ray] (2012)
Rating: 3.0
Seems to be focused on killer special effects instead of decent acting
Constantine is your basic man-vs-devil plot, with lots of biblical and mythological history thrown in. Until checking the reviews, I didn't realize this was once a comic book, but when watching the DVD, I definitely got the feeling that the directors had a good time as many crazy shape-shifting and skin-morphing special effects that they could pull off.[...] He delivers everything in his stoner monotone and has no range of emotion. Everyone in the movie, in fact, showed no emotion. No one ever got excited or agitated--they maintained the same calm, steady pace no matter whether they were doing something mundane or trying to save the future of mankind.This plot had a lot of potential, but it seems like the focus was on neat-o special effects and not on decent acting.
