Face Your Demons - and See Heaven and Hell
CONSTANTINE is an amazing, powerful and imaginative film. It is surreal and dark.It feels like a weird dream you can't wake up from that makes you reallylook at the feelings/actions in your own life that you fear.I don't know the comic book and I don't believe in Heaven and Hell. WE create that in our own lives,and we get stuck in it. I feel that's one of the themes in this film.Many of the demonic images of fiery worlds of suffering we create for ourselves.Not every culture shares these images or punishing beliefs.Keanu Reeves is brilliant in this movie. The characters he plays are almosttrance channelers for other realities -like Kabuki players or Shamans.I love how extreme this film is. There is a fluid energy that the characters move inand out of that is also disturbing and intense.There are a lot of films and tv shows now about the occult and psychic phenomena andspiritual experiences.CONSTANTINE is a fascinating journey into our fears and beliefs.I give Keanu and all the actors and Director high marks in excellence to go intothese dark and murky places that already exist within us. Awesome movie !
