Constantine - My review (3 stars)

[RangerWickett]

3 out of 4, man. Going higher than 4 with a star scale is just silly.

*grin*

In comparison, I'd give the first Matrix a 4, Matrix Reloaded a 2, and Matrix Revolutions a 1. The Rundown was a 3. The Mummy was a 3. Spiderman was a 2.5, and its sequel was a 3. Elektra was a 0. I'm having a hard time thinking of another 4 star action or sci-fi/fantasy movie I've seen lately. Oh, Fellowship was a 4, Two Towers a 3, and Return of the King a 2.

So, Constantine's better than RotK and Spiderman? Oooookay. I'll believe it when I see it, which will really depend on reviews. Yours just isn't in-depth enough to give me any kind of impression other than:

Constantine is best viewed by those who have not read Hellblazer.

And since I have read (and enjoyed) Hellblazer, I guess that means I shouldn't see it.

Keanu Reeves isn't that bad of an actor. He's not the best, but he doesn't deserve all of the derision that flocks to him like pigoens to a statue. He performed very well in Speed; and his performances in Devil's Advocate and the Matrix movies weren't horrible.

Never read the comics, but I've been interested in seeing Constantine for a while now. It looks like the Matrix meets End of Days.

Try watching Kevin Braughnau's (the guy who does all the shakespear movies) Much Ado About Nothing. Keanu Reeves has possibly the worst performance I've ever seen in a movie in there.

But it was FUNNY! The poor guy looked like he was really trying to do his best...but he just couldn't pull it off.

Of course, he was in Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure, which is at least worth a few hundred positive points for Keanu.

I don't think he was actually acting in that movie, though. That's just how he really is.

In the end...does it really matter? Its a great movie and if that's how he really is...we need more Bill and Ted movies!

No, it really doesn't.

Well, that's true regardless.

Much Ado About Nothing is a comedy; the villain has got to be hammy The Bill and Ted movies were awesome. Who can ever forget George Carlin's Rufus? Even Ebert liked the Bill and Ted movies and he enjoyed Keanu Reeves
