Media Author Review
United States
The New York Times

United States
Variety
"Pic possesses powerful imagery but lacks feature-length substance" 
United States
"'Constantine' is yet another studio extravaganza that's all aswirl with atmospherics, though empty at its center. The invasion of the soul snatchers proceeds apace."
