'Constantine' 2005 Warner Bros Starring Keanu Reeves and Rachel Weisz Length: 121 mins
When I first saw the previews for this movie I said I want to see it. It looks like a cool movie. Of course time past I didn't go and then it didn't get great reviews. So I was bit disappointed about the review thing.
The other day Michael comes down the steps and says, new movies are out. What you want me to get. So we looked on line and saw Constantine was out. I said grab that one I wanted to see it. He came back with it and last night at dinner we watched it.
I was skeptical on whether it'd be any good or not. However I was pleasantly surprised. I really enjoyed it. For that fact I've just finished watching it for the second time.
I'm not sure if you know what the movie is about or not so I'll tell ya a bit.
Angels and demons according to this aren't allowed on this plane. however what they call half breeds can be. They can't directly interfere but they can whisper in your ear. Yep good or bad. Constantine is trying to get in heaven but the problem was he tried to kill himself once. As the Catholics here know that's a mortal sin. So no matter what good he does he is still going to hell. He tries anyway to prove he deserves to be in heaven. As you can see there is a problem with his approach to this.
So he kills as many half breeds as he runs across. You'll get a little information on the Spear of Destiny.
One of my favorite lines is when one of the main characters says "I guess God has a plan for everyone". Constantine's reply is "God is a child with an ant farm". I don't know it just made me laugh. There are several other good lines in the movie but the stupid dogs keep bothering me so now I'm distracted.
One thing Constantine says is cats are half in and half out anyway. He uses a cat to get to hell to look for someone.
Anyway I enjoyed the movie and recommend picking it up to watch.
