"Tilda Swinton is the Angel Gabriel, adding a touch of high-class celestial cross-dressing to this overblown, overlong attempt - which falls just short of success - to make a movie dumber than 'Van Helsing'" | ||||
"The relation between 'Constantine' and its source material is, at best, superfluous" | ||||
"While lacking the richness of its source material, it remains an enjoyable, immoral and sometimes beautifully Gothic tale" | ||||
"A great-looking but torturously slow and often hokey cross between 'The Exorcist' and 'Dirty Harry.'" | ||||
"An engrossing mix of atmospheric gothic horror and smart sci-fi that's cemented by intriguing mythology, terrific visual effects, a dry sense of humor and an ideally cast Keanu Reeves." | ||||
"Pic possesses powerful imagery but lacks feature-length substance" | ||||
"'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." |
