Product: Constantine [Blu-ray] (2012)
Rating: 1.0
Weisz and Stormare steals the show but Keanu still sinks it.
Horrible written fright film that has possible the worse performance of the last few years by Keanu Reeves, who literally weighs the film down with his bad acting and bad presence in this film. I would love to meet the casting agent with though that Keanu Reeves of all people would have been great in this movie. The dialog is so bad in this film that you really are taken a back at the sheer stupidity of it and the story does not hold any weight as for as common sense goes. Keanu's interpretation of the character goes into overload after the first half-hour and the rest of the movie follows his lead into absurdity. The special effects are poorly done for a movie of this size and the cinematography is just horrible in some parts of the film. Of the supporting cast, only Rachel Weisz and Peter Stormare come out of this movie with passing grades and that's because they are both able to transcend the horrible script with very good performances that is better than the whole entire film. Weisz gives a strong and compelling performance with her character and that in itself a huge compliment considering the fact that the script does not do her performance any justice and Peter Stormare dominates the last ten minutes of the film with a perfect performance that should have been a lead instead of a cameo.Other than their performances, the movie just does not cut it and that's because of the lame writing and the miscasting of Keanu Reeves.
