What do YOU all think of Constantine?🔥 Is it one of the most underrated comic book movies?? Comment below!💥

[@kinyemibola4386]

Love this film so much. Deals with decent religious lore and is funny too!

[@FilmSpeak]

@ Definitely!

[@visurasilva9682]

@FilmSpeak I think the biggest thing the movie does so well compared to modern superhero films is that it doesn't take its world or characters for granted. We've become so desensitised to flying robots and ancient gods battling in famous cities because so many films just phone the world-building in. Very "they've seen this before, so they'll get it" energy. Constantine really takes its time to cement and sell its world and the characters that live in it. It never takes the audience for granted. It really wants you to believe in it. Couple that with some standout performances from some early 2000's icons that were just hitting their stride, and a surprisingly eerie score by the same guy who gave us the Pirates of the Caribbean score? Instant, cult classic perfection! 👌

[@Lilcutiepie95]

It’s a brilliant, genius movie.

[@lauren8135]

I absolutely love this film. It’s just so freaking good. I revisit this one frequently, I think Keanu is kick ass, the concept is interesting, the lore is cool, the stakes are palpable, all the supporting characters are great. I haven’t watched a single John Wick film but I know I will revisit Constantine. I appreciate that you are making the case for it!

[@bullseyestudios9068]

Movie was ahead of its time. Thank you for showing love to it.

[@FilmSpeak]

Absolutely. So refreshing to go back and revisit it!

Sin City is another example of a comic book movie from around this time that really holds up bc there was a lot care shown for the source material.

[@iljacepelov3561]

Nah, Constantine was an instant classic for me. It warms my heart that so many people are making videos on it. Hope more people watch it

[@Ahh-Kuma]

Personally, I think what makes this movie really good is that it allows you to digest the big scenes after they happen. It lets you really think about what just happened while trickling in the next few scenes so that you're not bombarded with too much.

[@DR.slzzzp]

[@PerfektFilms]

Quiet moments in between action scenes truly is the art which Hollywood lost in the 2010s.

I haven’t seen a single John Wick film, I’ve watched Constantine like 5 times. It’s so freakin kick ass, the plot is good, the stakes are gripping, I love it. The opening scene chefs kiss.

Try the first 2 John Wick’s--3 and 4 are kinda disappointing

[@forrestcrain3401]

Wick is definitely worth checking out. I love both.

[@williamhermann6635]

You gotta at least watch the first John Wick. The last 3 are whatever but the first is amazing.

[@being47]

ok so without disrespecting to other comments here , All 4 john wick movies are good, 1 is spectacle , 2 is great follow up, 3 is not great compared to first 2 but a great movie nonetheless , and 4 is a great conclusion. i understand others thought process on this 4 movies but they are great movies. They completely changed the action genre where everyone wants the action like john wick, nobody wants to see the shakky cam we all wants a good f action scene where we can see everything that's happening.

Better DC movie than any of the actual DC movies. I love Constantine. Everyone involved was clearly invested in the project and the attention to detail is fabulous. I love hearing the director talk about the scene where twin Isabel dies and her pupils dilate, is an absolute joy. Hoping more people check it out with a sequel in the works 🤞🏻

[@archangel6676]

How was it the best dc movie? That wasn't John Constantine, it wasn't even anyone or thing in the dc universe.

He can be a meme AND an international treasure. They're not mutually exclusive. btw this video is breathtaking

[@dianalog4760]

Love this movie. Fell in love with Tilda Swinton as Gabriel. The end credit scene is a regular random image in my mind. I've re-watched Constantine more than a handful of times since I first saw it in the theatre.

[@slimmccoy8863]

Gabriel is such a perfect example of the villain being the "hero of their own story." Humanity should be grateful for the opportunity to be "worthy of his love." The entire plan makes perfect sense, from a twisted point of view.

[@PerfectedCeII]

It also has the best on screen version of Lucifer to date.

[@FilmSpeak]

[@minirth.maggie]

[@Justin84319]

Peter Stormare has the best combination of refinement and animalistic rage in his scene

[@agiksf.8998]

As entertaining as Lucy in the TV series is, he is such a brat. This is suppose to be a creature as old as time, not a sarcastic adolescent angry at daddy. I will always enjoy Lucifer from Constantine.

[@tech-know7307]

At fifteen, I was not ready for this movie but I watched and was in awe by the end of it. Scared the shit out of me at first but learned to appreciate what used to scare me.

[@Asidchild]

Something I love about the casting of Reaves is knowing some of the most tragic experiences a human can undergo are experiences Reaves has had. The way he taps into the grief, the anger, the contempt, and the exhaustion of a man isolated in his experience of truly unfair circumstances that basically no one can relate to? Damn if that isn’t an actor playing himself.

Probably my favorite portrayal of the devil in any film. Thanks for the reminder that I ought to watch this one again!

[@Perceptive-Abyss]

Wow a Constatine review was well overdue. It has struck me that through the memification of most of Keanu's actions, and his distinct method of playing introverted characters, people often regard to his craft as "bad acting" like you mentioned. Which sure, he's not the greatest actor of all time, but he's not the wet cardboard people think he is, especially in his delivery in the John Wick saga, playing off subtlety. And his sometimes stilted delivery seems quite natural for the character, who doesn't speak by words but his actions so it makes sense. People also tend to forget the dedication he puts into his stunts, which is the definitive reason John Wick became popular. Regardless, people argue whether his iconic roles like The Matrix and John Wick could have been so great with him replaced as the lead actor, and the answer being a definitive no warms my heart. He's such a nice guy, and not a lot of people know he's been through quite a lot through his life. He had to deal with the death of his best friend, unborn daughter and girlfriend, and yet he still remains one of the most supportive and wholesome people out there. He doesn't really deserve the hate he gets.

[@AbrahamHerrera1589]

I watched this movie in a chicago movie theater full of largely a black audience, They loved this movie, and in the end everybody applauded. My black people love keanu. I remember the running joke of almost kissing throughout the movie was especially a highlight amongst the audience and they clapped so hard when Angela flipped it on john and the subtle ending of him pulling what seemed to be a cigarette but turned out to be gum. I think we all knew we had watched something special.

[@queefmicester1189]

It's one of those rare movies you can honestly watch over and over and not get bored of. Like FightClub and GoodFellas. That short legendary list.

One of my favorite movies…In my humble opinion, Keanu makes movies which speak to him. I don’t think that the public is always on his wavelength. Which is ok. And Keanu is such a generous guy he is fine with the criticism. He doesn’t have to worry about his legacy. I see that people are looking back at the films and TV shows from the last 20 years and watching them thru a new perspective. And I am here for it.

I didn't even know it was based on a comic back when I first watched the movie. Or the next three times. I just loved this movie as a stand-alone. Still do. Tilda Swinton in a male role absolutely blew my mind, especially since she completely SOLD it. Movies should do that more often. To sum it up, 10/10, best Anti Smoking Commercial I ever watched. (Also omg I think I can actually distantly remember RIPD)

[@slimmccoy8863]

I remember a line from the "Hellblazer" comics, back in the 90's, might not get it exactly right. Constantine : "I don't know why people think angels are beatific. They scare the shit out of me." Tilda Swinton's androgynous look is perfect, and she turns in an excellent performance.

Constantine truly is a masterpiece. The things you mention and the scene examples you show brought another film to my mind, Night Watch, that russian one with the "light" and "dark" magicians in modern time. (Good and evil is not what I said!) In both films you're thrown into a living universe where characters do strange things that need to be done in the way they are usually done for them - and they absolutely don't care to explain to you how and why, you're just watching. I love that, it creates way more immersion than constructing everything so it is explained or even breaking the fourth wall, imho.

[@kaisokusekkendou1498]

There's so much done well in this movie, stuff that feels very lost in the current era of film. The cinematography is a step above. The angles, framing, colours... it all subtly informs the viewer how to feel and where the scene is going. It guides you along so less needs to be said to make you understand the hows and whys of what's happening. Not everything is explained in detail. This is a key factor in good world building. Sets that look intentional but not discussed; dialogue left unsaid, or references with only a name or subject to leave as hints. These all give a sensation of there being so much more complexity behind the world. It feels like a living world. And the dialogue.. not everyone talks the same. Not everyone speaking with the same sardonic wit, like the entire cast has one voice - the writer's. And serious moments are allowed to be serious. Running gags are fine, though you don't want to depart from your overall tone too much, and can make for a good turn at the climax to subvert, surprise or show character growth. I fear that the current era of directors are either wholly untrained at creating real cinema, or they have their hands tied so badly that they cannot exert the control needed to produce good shows. It feels like when the money gets too big, it all gets sanded down into "safe bets" until it becomes bland and dumb.

I’ve seen a lot of people talk shit about this movie but always thought they just bought into that initial Alan Moore bullshit (guy writes amazing comic book stories but always thought he came off as a bit of an asshole tbh) and didn’t watch the movie with an open mind.

And that scene is ten times more thrilling than any sky beam ending from any number of blockbusters in the following decade.
