Occult detective John Constantine teams up with a policewoman when her sister allegedly committed suicide, and all hell breaks loose.
Now, that’s how you adapt a graphic novel! Before Warner Bros and DC started getting those shockingly dreadful reviews, there was “Constantine”. Hardly a superhero, definitely an antihero, John Constantine exists in the DC Universe and kicks demonic and angelic ass in his own blunt, cynic, and supernatural way.
Behind the camera, Francis Lawrence and his team write, edit, and direct an action/fantasy (although not horror, really) with a lot of humour, amazing photography, and great visual effects that help the story advance. If there were any gimmicks, flaws, or holes, you wouldn’t bother finding them, and even if you did, you would turn a blind eye as it is that enjoyable.
In front of the lens, Keanu Reeves, Rachel Weisz, Djimon Hounsou, Shia LaBeouf, Pruitt Taylor Vince, Tilda Swinton, and Peter Stormare stand together and clash against each other, throwing countless punchlines and keeping you entertained for two solid hours. Well, if you are too religious, maybe not that entertained.
Anyway, I give Warner Bros. my permission to hire Francis Lawrence and his crew back to rebuild DCCU.
