TOP "The Sacrifice" Reactions! Constantine (2005) Movie Reaction *First Time Watching*

[@6022]

"Why is the devil in white?" Lucifer? The Lightbringer? Morningstar? The OG writers of Constantine knew a lot about the history of all this stuff.

[@lionhead123]

He was also the most beautiful of all angels though... I'm not calling Peter Stormare ugly, but...

[@Glaaki13]

well people dont read -I reed religion and psychology at Uni, Now Im Danish so I see most Christians, but many get their ideas from media

As well as how Morningstars primary power is to heal.

[@ZonknBonk-yw3hb]

You beat me to it haha damn you 😂 actually the director wanted to have him in leather but Peter said no put me in a white suit, it suits who Lucifer is better aka the light bringer

[@Ivotas]

Did Peter Stormare just wake up that day and think "Only five minutes, eh? I'll show you that this is enough to steal the show!"

[@nilesstark]

My favorite element about this version of the Devil that not only does he hardly get angry, but he knows damn good and well that John will slip and do something that lands on his list.

[@IDiggPattyMayonnaise]

The devil in biblical description isn't an angry fellow. That's how he entices people. You don't go towards people that are angry. You go towards those that give you want you want. Also, he's supposed to be the most handsome thing in God's kingdom, and encrusted in every precious jewel. So the suit makes sense. The angry all black, horns, or goat legs is just renaissance interpretation in painting that people believe today

[@mckenzie.latham91]

It’s more that he hides his anger behind a veneer, and it’s not that he knows John will do something bad he believes he will, because he suspects and thinks the worst of mankind that’s why johns sacrifice and beating him angered him so.

[@PlutttØo]

@StopReadingMyNameOrElse and he’s hardly angry in the comics. He’s better than everyone else and he knows it

[@Chockys234]

Only a few minutes on screen and he's capable to steal the whole movie. Peter Stormare is a hell of actor with a diabolical talent. Constantine's Lucifer is the best worst badass of the darkness.

[@gamera1962]

I understand fans of the comic hated this movie for several reasons. But I've always liked this movie and this scene in particular

[@BHRamsay]

The only two thing's I wish they'd charged is I wish they left in John hooking up with a succubus, they didn't have to have sex but that's totally in John's wheelhouse and John starts chewing gum at the end seemingly giving up smoking, John Constantine doesn't learn from his mistakes except how to better get away with breaking the rules.

[@ubermac85]

In the Bible, Lucifer is described as the most beautiful Archangel. So him wearing white makes perfect sense.

[@Naproxeno_MD]

There's no verse saying that lol.

[@j_stach]

That's from Paradise Lost, not the Bible

[@kharilane1340]

What you are actually thinking of is 2 Corinthians 11:14, " And no wonder, for Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light."

[@ryanhampson673]

Peter Stormare is just great. The original script had the devil wearing black leather and spikes but Stormare had the idea of him wearing a suit and having his feet covered in tar for effect and the director liked the idea and said yes. Sometimes the actors can really add to the story with their insight.

[@asstmemelord]

I love that it was Stormare's idea! I thought the tar on the feet was SUCH a perfect choice, I have even more respect for Peter Stormare

[@maritime7776]

Peter Stormare in Constantine and Viggo Mortensen’s portrayal of the devil are by far my favorite depictions of Lucifer. Peter’s version gives Luci a bit of a smug, perverse, and playfully deviant air about him. He knows just how powerful and dangerous he is, but he’ll opt to toy with you for his own sick pleasure.

[@paulp9274]

Jeff Goldblum did a movie called Mr. Frost where he plays a convicted serial killer trying to convince his psychiatrist that he's actually the devil.

[@TheAngryMoth104]

There has to be some respect to Al Pachino in The Devils Advocate as well

[@dimetime35c]

Well thats how the devil would actually operate. He's not going to be all fire, skulls, and torture. He's going to operate in the shadows and toy with humanity. Satan doesn't want followers simply because they are scared and forced to follow. He wants to corrupt and pervert humanities view of God. He wants nothing more then to get humanity to believe he is actually the one true God. He wants us to freely follow him because we believe he is the light.

[@mycroft16]

Add Pacino in The Firm to that list and it's perfect.

[@maritime7776]

@ you mean The Devil’s Advocate, but you’re correct on Pacino

[@BaeBunni]

Probably one of the favorite depictions of the devil because he cures John of cancer. Like yea it would be incredibly reasonable that he would save a man's life if it meant another chance at getting his soul and just to be his own middle finger to god.

[@yapeseguy9261]

hes great but nothing tops viggo mortensen as the lucifer in The Prophecy

[@johnnybravo816]

One of my favourite Lucifers in all of cinema. Stormare is such a great actor.

[@mycroft16]

He absolutely commands this role, steals every single second he is on screen. Absolute perfect casting and perfect take on Lucifer. Terrifying in the control he shows of himself. Terrifying because you can also see the power lurking just below the surface. He understands John so so well. He's charming and even pleasant if he wants to be. I think a very close 2nd to this performance is The Firm.

[@jdsim9173]

Peter Stormare is such an awesome actor.

[@blazedbeye3412]

Can't think of a bad performance from him, truly underrated

[@teomamalos]

Thank you for this Constantine was one of the best underrated films I have ever seen. Thank you for making such an amazing compilation

[@819phoenix]

This is symbolic of Keanus life. Being there for his sister

[@texdoc89]

This is still the best depiction of Lucifer in film to date and idc who argues with me over it. Peter Stomare owned this role and his what like 10 minutes of screen time? 10/10

[@alejandropacheco7832]

What is amazing about this movie is that we see hell, we see demons, monsters and the only angel is a traitor, so where are the good angels? and where's God?.... And if we really see the movie we can tell he is always there. If we check the succession of events, Gabriel tells Constantine that he needs humility, and selflessness to get into heaven and at the end he humbly prays _"I'm not worthy and not welcome in your house but I need your help"_ and commits the ultimate sacrifice, so God did not only sent help.. Lucifer of all angels went to do God's work!! He saved Isabel, sent his son back to hell, and as a bonus for taking Isabel's place he is taking his place in Heaven, but as a bonus the devil cures his wounds and cancer and gives Constantine another chance to live 😅😂😅 God does work in mysterious ways 🙏🏻❤😮

[@TheBuzzard42]

It's also canon that, because John's tendons were severed, he wasn't the one flipping Lucifer off: It was God Himself using John's hand to do it!

[@ryanhampson673]

Just like how suicide earns you an immediate ticket straight to hell, giving your life for someone else automatically gets you into heaven because it is exactly what Jesus did.

[@KA24DERACER]

Damn, never thought about it that deeply. He also gives Gabriel what she (he? shes pretty androgynous in this one) what she wants and was so angry about. Being made human (one of the beings shes so jealous of) and recieving the same love and forgiveness/redemption that she hated that humans received despite being "unworthy" (which she certainly is as well now).

[@asstmemelord]

@@KA24DERACER this is why I love yt comments, I never thought of it that way. It wasn't a punishment for Gabriel, and that's why they're shockingly Fine with it despite the pain. Great!

[@vlastimilzlamal2982]

From times when agelic wars take place Gods work making humans on Earth. Humans need find their own strenght to fight evil. No angel or threat of punisment are capable to do it for them.

[@i.am.MrBast]

This is one of my favorite movies. I cannot believe how many of these viewers thought Isabel was having a baby, or that didn't know Lucifer was an angel, or that Lucifer just destroyed Gabriel's grace/wings and made he/her human. Did anyone actually watch this movie?

[@jamiehill3621]

I hope they get Peter Stormare back for the second one. He was perfect for the role.

[@eltrinogomez777]

Edge of your seat stuff, this movie is a timeless classic.

[@martyn6145]

The fact that half of these viewers didn't know who Lucifer was when John committed suicide again, and that the "selfless sacrifice" ushers your soul into heaven, is a sad testament to the lack of general knowledge of younger generations.

How does the Devil not understand the sacrifice? Like, he's not smart enough?

It's not that, God did not allow for him to see what was happening until it was too late. God does that a lot. He won't allow people to see or understand certain things until the time is right.

[@dialecticalmonist3405]

@AnthonyNunez2111 So you're saying the Devil was not allowed to remember that "the sacrifice" is a thing, when making the deal with Constantine? I actually like this philosophy.

[@corruptangel6793]

I think it's just a matter of it being so out of character for John, and Lucifer being so excited to get John's soul that he simply missed the bigger picture. His pettiness and pride clouded his judgment.

This version being so dumb that he permits the self sacrifice and not realising it would wipe the slate of johns soul clean? Even the human viewers saw it coming yet the one who was a revered angel and now rules hell can't? Gimme a break ffs, almost as bad as letting Reeves basically play himself and make zero effort in his portrayal, not saying he wasn't good, and still a great movie, but John Constantine he ain't, nearly as bad as 5'7 Tom Cruise playing 6'5 Jack Reacher

[@corruptangel6793]

Shortsightedness. Lucifer was never the brightest character. He's prideful, petty, and jealous. That's why he plays by the rules of the "game" between him and God. His pride won't allow him to cheat with his Son's method. That's why he rewarded John for the telling on his son instead of just leaving. He was so excited to get John's soul that he completely missed the bigger picture.

[@bdlblob]

Cry about it

[@epbrown01]

My favorite thing about the Constantine stories was that angels were portrayed as the original religious extremists, regularly willing to kill anyone because if you’re bad, you’re going to hell (which you deserve) and if you’re good, you’re going to heaven (so what’s the problem?). I’m not fond of Stormare’s casting since all angels - even Lucifer - were supposed to look like Swinton, androgynous yet beautiful.

[@mckenzie.latham91]

wouldn’t a fallen angel not look like the non fallen angels though?

[@epbrown01]

@ The sole change in the books was losing their wings - physically, still looked the same. The backstory is that the angels pre-date gender, male and female humanoids started with Adam and Eve.

[@6022]

The comic version of Lucifer was spot on, and a lot more like you're describing, but I'm not going to quibble with this casting choice. I think Stormare blows everyone off screen with just a couple of minutes of screen time.

[@observermi8796]

Stormare's casting was 'Excellent' as well as his portrayal. You really think Lucifer is going to look as he did before? He's the angel of 'darkness', not the once beautiful angel he was.

That's one way of looking at it. I see it more as he simply didn't need to help. He knew how everything would play out and so just sat back until it was time to grab John.
