      The Stubbornness of Youth -- "Constantine"

      The stubbornness and loneliness of youth - after watching "Constantine", this is a very CULT-style film. It is full of all kinds of decadent flavors, dilapidated and weird, religion, the murder of demons, and angels who are no longer warm and clean. Just like the memory trajectory of each of us, when we were young, we always thought that everything was simple and beautiful, and when we grew up, we began to slowly understand the dark side of the world. This is a movie worth...

      Seeing is not necessarily believing

      The rhythm of the film is tight and the plot is interesting (I haven't read the original book, so I only analyze the film), whether it is the demon design that still makes the audience shine fifteen years later, or the death of Jesus design that is more innovative than traditional stories. It must reflect a rich imagination.

      The radiant Keanu Reeves (who was already called John at the time) portrayed an exorcist struggling between heaven and hell, God and...

      Quite like

      It can be seen that the film is obviously based on "Faust". One of my teachers once said, "In fact, there are only a few modes of stories. You can see that so many excellent movies in the West are actually based on the stories they have long ago." People have created such excellent science fiction works as Batman and Constantine on the basis of traditional spirit, but we have only produced a few costume films on the basis of traditional clothes. Of course, after thinking about it carefully,...

      Why Doctrinal Oneness Can't Save Religious Intolerance

      Back then, Shia LaBeouf was still a young boy.

      When the ending song ends. West Asia grew wings and soared into the sky. . .

      Admittedly, this is an old-fashioned topic where good is rewarded and evil is rewarded. But don't forget. This is in the world. It seems that human beings can't escape the Wuzhishan of evil and goodness.

      so, The question is coming. .

      What is goodness? What is evil?

      The words before the angel's wings were broken are still in my...

      Smoking is harmful to health

      One, Keanu Reeves, is really a handsome to tragic handsome ratio. The appearance at the moment is much more handsome than the long-haired bearded man who has a bloody case caused by a dog in the future.

      Second, the heroine is very beautiful, full of European and American style.

      Third, this film makes you understand what is a melancholy and decadent smoking man. This is really a face-to-face world.

      Fourth, on our earth, it is good to have religious beliefs. Science makes me...

      The special effects are great, and all kinds of slow motion look great. Keanu is dead handsome, Shia seven years ago was completely like a child. Watching this film has always reminded me of SPN, Brimstone Angel Demon Holy Water...

      The classic fantasy movie was given to Lucifer's middle finger. In the end, Chase became an angel and took Constantine's lighter. I once again confirmed that this is a movie about quitting...

    Evaluation action

    "Hell Detective" this exorcism movie has added a lot of new elements, and also hired the director Francis Lawrence who is good at shooting MV to direct it. As a result, the film is full of mystery, but it has a sense of trendiness. Constantine, the protagonist in the play, is not at all the character of a traditional hero. He saves people to make a deal with God. This kind of selfish hero is very innovative. Although Keanu's acting...

      Angela Dodson: Okay.

      John Constantine: Take a deep one.

      Angela Dodson: [Angela breathes in and goes under; after being held under for too long, she emerges from the bathtub] Oh, God. Oh, God, all those people. Oh, Isabel. I've always known. I've always known where they are. I've always known where to - where to find them, where to - where to aim and where to duck, and I've always known where they were. I've always known that it wasn't luck. Always known that it wasn't luck. I've always known, I've always known that I could see.

    • Angela Dodson: I used to pretend that I didn't - that I didn't see things.

    • Angela Dodson: When we were girls, we would leave each other messages in light... and breath... on the windows.
