We rented Constantine a few days ago and consensus was, "pretty--very pretty at times--but ultimately limp and underwhelming." Which is kind of a shame, really. Although I'm not as familiar with the canon as I probably should be, the Hellblazer comics upon which the movie was based were pretty darned good.

With cynicism honed to an art, John Constantine was a quintessentially British character, wandering through the ruins of empire and history. Keanu Reeves (or just about any American, for that matter) is a poor substitute for, say--a young Sting, upon whom the original comic character was based.

If you're a fan of the comic, it's best to envision the move as an Elseworlds tale: a "what might have been," if you will.

It is pretty, though.
