Geeks need not apply
I have no idea why people keep trashing this movie.No, of course it doesn't stick to the comic book. This might be because this is a movie BASED on a comic book, and it is obviously not meant to be a faithful translation.I thought the opening scene was awesome, as well as the mythologies put forth in the film. This film makes great use of the character in the HellBlazer comic, and flips him to make him more accessible without taking any of his edge.As someone who has read the comic book, I can say that this movie is Original and exiting in it's own right.It really annoys me when people complain and say the same "It doesn't stick to the comic book/novel/video game/play/whatever this movie is based on" thing, no matter how interesting the movie is regardless.These people should just be banned from all theaters and flayed to death.For those people who actually like movies, and have some semblance of an open mind, you will enjoy this film.Peace!
