Product: Constantine [Blu-ray] (2012)
Rating: 5.0
a misunderstood great film
first of all, i don't know why people say this movie didn't make sense, i completely understood it. second of all, i don't know why people say they couldn't stay awake, the movie isn't slow at all. the excorscism secne was so different from other films too. i liked this film so much that i went to the cinema twice to watch it. Keanu Reeves was not wrongly cast, his performance IS believable, as is Rachel W's. Lucifer delivers a grea performance also. this is a good film because it's not the typical mainstream, it's dark, different, and intelligent. the effects are beautiful especially on the angels. there is 1 negative thing to say about the effects, there is a scene where Keanu fights with a demon who seems to be in the form of insects, that is the only scene where i thought the effects lacked a realistic quality. i think some people didn't like this film because it was different, which is why i loved it. i advise anyone who like to break away from the mainstream to see it, because it's not a light hearted, happy go lucky movie. there are a few funny parts in this film though, which makes it all the better.as for sin city, another comic based film, it was terrible, it lacked sunstance and a story, visually beautiful, but everything else was horrible. i only say this becasue in other reviews, constantine has been compared to it. in sin city, it seems all the director wanted to do for 2 and a half hours was to just shoot usually naked or half naked women. this may be why so many males liked it, which is a bit pathetic. there is no plot, it was such a waste of time.Constantine: great, Sin City: absolutely terrible
