Three stars no more no less just right

Maybe I watched this movie with a 20-year perspective, so I feel like it's just right to give three stars. The three stars are because it made me go to Baidu again to inquire about Western religious concepts.

The story of this movie doesn't feel very full and the plot can't be said to be ups and downs. The biggest difference between it and the Chinese movie of catching monsters and driving out ghosts is probably that it integrates Western religious concepts. But this show can't be seen as a cool movie. There are not too many fighting scenes in the whole show. The most shocking scene is just the scene when Constantine goes to hell. The last boss in the plot relies entirely on brute force, what about your mana? How about you make up that demon and take away the heroine's mana? How come you've lost all your power in the end? And Gabriel's behavior, I still don't understand. What's your motive for helping the devil be born? Just because human beings have committed too many sins, are you helping God to carry out a clear plan for human beings?

This film tells a story of redemption and devotion, and the apprentice's egg in the end is probably the only bright spot. Whether it was God sent him to assist Constantine from the very beginning, or because of the sacrifice of his apprentices, he ascended to heaven and became an angel. This is enough to make you think.

    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
