So, being able to see it today is really unexpected happiness. After watching it for 2 minutes, I was deeply attracted by the strong Catholic religious atmosphere. (Recently, I have been particularly interested in religious things. First, I was brainwashed by my devout roommate with some Christian teachings, and then I went to the Lama Temple to study Tibetan Buddhism. Now I began to understand the profound meaning of Catholicism. Haha, no wonder beautiful aunt Said that my palmistry can see the Buddha's fate, it seems that my destination is to escape into the empty door.)
Well, I admit, at first glance it is because. . . Handsome Keanu Reeves, a great hero who slays demons and exorcise demons.
Well, I admit, I haven't watched the movie for a long time, but I'm just afraid that I will drift into the movie again, and then I won't be able to come out for a long, long time. . .
Well, I admit, I seem to be only afraid of ghosts in the East, and I am relatively immune to the ghosts and magic of the West (except for disgusting horror movies). Although I was really frightened by the ghost who suddenly appeared from behind Constantine as a child, I was quickly appeased by the kindly king of hell, Satan. What a reassuring and rejoicing fact that our devil leader is a naughty old child.
The most memorable line "You got lung cancer because you started smoking at least two packs of cigarettes a day from the age of fifteen. The reason you couldn't get into heaven is because you gave up your life." Uh. . . If I write like this, I'm going to say "smoking is bad for your health" next, stop!
Synopsis:
John Constantine (Keanu Reeves) is a handsome, super-powered detective . His super power is not an ordinary super power, he can roam freely between heaven and hell. As a humanoid creature between gods and ghosts, he is naturally able to recognize half-demon and half-immortal mixed in human beings, so his job is to exorcise the police detective. What a splendid career he has to travel around the world, investigating mysterious events that happen everywhere.
However, in fact, this unpredictable man has suffered from this superpower since childhood. He has Yin-Yang eyes since he was a child and can see supernatural phenomena, making him unable to become an ordinary person. From the age of fifteen, two packs of cigarettes a day made his lungs dark, and he was already at the advanced stage of lung cancer at a young age. Constantine, who lived by exorcism, was unable to enter heaven because he committed suicide, but he was reluctant to enter hell because of that, because then he would get along with many monsters and monsters he had beaten back to his hometown day and night. Catholic teachings cannot be violated, and for him, life has no illusions.
The days go on like this, until the appearance of female police officer Angela (Rachel Weisz). Angela is a master who does not believe in ghosts and gods, but the very strange death of her twin sister left her at a loss. Although she doesn't believe in evil, in order to investigate and understand the cause of her sister's death, Angela had to ask Constantine, a weird guy who walks on the edge of good and evil, for help. The weird journey to hell has begun, what kind of future awaits them?
It turns out that the demons in the world are all hybrids; it turns out that the angels in the world are just the result of crossbreeding.
It turned out that the ten fallen archangels who colluded with the son of the devil to try to destroy the world were actually ten fallen angels. And the reason for all her actions is just mad jealousy - jealous of God's redemption only for human beings.
What is puzzling is this:
the archangel who was demoted to a human being, after being beaten by our exorcist to the point where the corners of his mouth bleed, actually laughed, and his smile was so brilliant, strange, could it be that being a human would be happier and happier than being an angel? Wouldn't it be nice to feel no pain and no threat of death?
It looks like it's really bad.
Suddenly I thought of a sentence, I would rather be awake in pain than numb and happy.
The original pain can also make people feel happy. . . .
