The film introduced today is "Constantine" aka (Hell Detective) adapted from the comic book of the same name, directed by Francis Lawrence and starring Keanu Reeves, Rachel Weisz, Tilda Swinton, etc. Thriller horror movie.

The movie tells that the devil Satan and God signed an agreement that no one can directly intervene in the world, but can only indirectly tempt humans to choose heaven or hell. Heaven, hell, and the world are parallel. Some people go to heaven after death, while others go to hell. The protagonist in the film, Constantine, is an anomaly. He has had a superpower since he was a child and can see into the demons or angels in the world. Due to the fear of this superpower in his childhood, he chose to commit suicide, but he failed to succeed. die. Catholicism stipulates that people who commit suicide cannot enter heaven, so Constantine began to use his superpowers to get rid of those demons who violated the agreement to please God, hoping to exchange for his ticket to heaven.

The protagonist of the film, Constantine, is a modern exorcist who has been an alien since he was a child and can see demons and angels. Due to the fear of this power as a child, he chose to commit suicide, but was unsuccessful.

When he entered hell, time stopped.

Constantine said that two minutes in hell is as long as a person's life.

One day Constantine suddenly vomited blood at home.

I went to the hospital and found out that I had lung cancer.

Constantine started smoking 30 cigarettes a day at the age of 15.

He looked at the cigarette in his hand and said, now I'm going to die because of this kind of thing.

Constantine caught a spider and put it in a cup, and then blew his smoke into the cup.

He looked at the spider in the smoky cup and said, let you live my life too.

As you can imagine, Constantine is not a traditional superhero image.

There was even a change in my heart.

The angel Gabriel in the film is said to be an embassy of God on earth.

But Gabriel was able to break through the seal for Mammon, the son of the devil.

trying to control the world.

thereby betraying God.

In the end, Constantine cut his wrists to commit suicide, which attracted the devil Satan Lucifer.

Constantine tells Lucifer that your son and Gabriel conspired to rule the world.

Lucifer sent his son back to hell.

Gabriel punched Lucifer without any special effects.

Lucifer directly burned out both pairs of angel Gabriel's wings.

At the end of the film, Constantine sacrifices himself.

Thus got the ticket to heaven.

On his way to heaven, Constantine turned his back to Lucifer and held up his middle finger.

The result is predictable.

Lucifer put his hands into Constantine's lungs.

Lucifer said in his ear, you will live.

Only then can you prove it.

Your soul belongs to hell forever.

Lucifer cut out Constantine's lung cancer with his bare hands.

From then on, Constantine continued to walk in the world, hell, and heaven, and continued to do the work of punishing evil and promoting good.

But I really like this doctor.

In fact, I have always been curious about the gender of Angel Gabriel, male or female.

based on available information.

Angels are genderless.

After the film's lengthy subtitles, there's a hidden episode where Constantine leaves a super-beautiful lighter in front of his dead assistant's grave, and then the assistant suddenly bursts out of the ground as an angel flying into the sky.

The plot at the end of the film reminds me of a sentence.

It's not necessarily an angel who saves you, it could be a demon.

    A comic-modified fantasy detective film full of film noir colors, exorcism lone ranger saves the world at the time of collapse, full of strong punishment-salvation complex-even if you have selfishness to avoid suffering after death, you will never regret walking to hell and sacrifice. Revelation and resolution of the conspiracy are profound: hypocritical angels and false gods cooperate with opponents to do evil, true and evil Satan is afraid that the quilt will seize power to clear the door and oppose peacekeeping, the positions, actions and results of the representatives of good and evil appear interesting twists (throw the heroine before There is the sound of flapping wings in the background sound of the aerial footage, Gabriel has been exposed at that time); Constantine is astute and rebellious, second time suicide summons, and Lucifer’s middle finger... can always use “bad actions” to achieve “good ending” , The gods and demons all want to use him, but they are all used by him; different from the protagonist group's causal contradiction, the supporting role is fatalistic-the alcoholic priest died of wine, and the love worm died of worms. The low voice of all the staff is distinctive. Looking at the tidbits, Keanu Reeves's version seems to be very different from the original comic book "Zha Kang" whose teammates are bisexual. The whole film is more like a fan, with the male lead and the mixed blood female demon completely deleted. No wonder the male and female masters did not kiss the scene. (Have colored eggs
