As a suicide survivor, demon hunter John Constantine (Keanu Reeves) has literally been to hell and back -- and he knows that when he dies, he's got a one-way ticket to Satan's realm unless he can earn enough goodwill to climb God's stairway to heaven. While helping policewoman Angela Dodson (Rachel Weisz) investigate her identical twin's apparent suicide, Constantine becomes caught up in a supernatural plot involving both demonic and angelic forces. Based on the DC/Vertigo "Hellblazer" comics.

Critics Consensus

Despite solid production values and an intriguing premise, Constantine lacks the focus of another spiritual shoot-em-up: The Matrix.

Blazes few new trails and bogs down in a confusing narrative muddle.

I deeply loathe the Heaven-and-Hell genre to which this cinematic comic-book spectacular belongs.

3/10

Since the various goings-on are abnormal, puzzling, metaphysical, and embellished by dated computer graphics, it’s difficult to get too wrapped up in the plot.

Constantine resembles nothing so much as a punctured tire with a slow leak, letting all the air seep out until what’s finally left is flat and fairly ineffectual.

The Angel Gabriel and Satan are some of the best depictions of well-known Bible characters that I’ve ever seen on screen... A breath of fresh air in today’s hyper-cookie-cutter style comic book movie world.

This movie still holds up all these years later. This was my first time watching it theater and I gotta say, it’s definitely worth the watch.

An intriguing premise with interesting lore, cool action sequences and pretty formidable stylistic choices. Unfortunately, it is far too messy to let the greatest strengths of the story really come forth.

If I remember correctly, we were all required to hate this back in 2005. But the statute of limitations is up, so we're now free to agree it's fun and actually kind of cool.
