Constantine is a 2005 American Occult Detective film which is loosely based on Vertigo Comics' Hellblazer comic. It borrows elements from "Dangerous Habits" (John's cancer diagnosis in issues #41-46) and the "Original Sins" trade paperback (the inclusion of Papa Midnite). It premiered in Paris on February 7, 2005, and was released on February 18, 2005 in the U.S. and Canada. It's rated "R" for violence and demonic images by the MPAA, but the language is pretty tame.Things are getting strange for John Constantine (Keanu Reeves), a freelance demon hunter with the innate ability to spot demons in disguise. He attempted suicide to escape the visions, which condemned him to eternity in Hell, but was revived—irritating Lucifer (Peter Stormare), who grew to despise John for killing his Hellspawn.Demon activity is on the rise, with more and more trying to cross over via human hosts. This is ordinarily right up John's alley, but he's preoccupied with the fact that he's dying of cancer. He appeals to the Archangel Gabriel (Tilda Swinton) for "an extension", but is flatly denied. Instead, he is enlisted by Det. Angela Dodson (Rachel Weisz) to investigate the death of her sister, another psychic. It turns out that Lucifer's son is trying to usurp him. Mammon requires the body of a powerful psychic to cross over, but John suspects that someone on Earth is working on Mammon's behalf...Not to be confused with the Constantine television adaptation of the comic of the same name, which is more faithful to the source material.A sequel is in development with Reeves and original director Francis Lawrence (The Hunger Games: Catching Fire, The Hunger Games: Mockingjay) set to return and J. J. Abrams joining as producer.

Artistic License – Gun Safety: When attacked by the Scavengers of the Damned, Angela pulls out her pistol and points it behind her, ending at Constantine's crotch. It may not just have been Guns Are Worthless that made him say "That's really not going to help".

Retired Badass: Papa Midnite, a mage so powerful that he took on 30 demons by himself. Doesn't need special tools as he has actual magical powers. And powerful enough to create his own embassy of neutrality where hybrids mix and behave under his watch.

Suicide Is Shameful
 Constantine (2005) / int_1a3b588c
comment
Suicide Is Shameful: Suicide is deemed sinful enough to guarantee a soul a place in Hell, even if the attempt fails. Subverted at the end, when Constantine uses his suicide as a Heroic Sacrifice to save the Earth and convince Satan to send Angela's sister to Heaven, rather than barter for more time for himself. This act of self-sacrifice earns him a place in Heaven... until Lucifer heals him in the hopes that he'll mess it up before he dies again.

Taunting the Unconscious: Chaz tries to enter Papa Midnite's club, but is denied entry by the bouncer because he isn't psychic and can't tell that a hidden card depicts "a rat in a dress". Later in the movie, Constantine knocks out the bouncer. Chaz takes advantage of the opportunity to taunt the unconscious bouncer by saying "Who's a rat in a dress now, huh, bitch?"

Survival Through Self-Sacrifice
 Constantine (2005) / int_1b539743
comment
Survival Through Self-Sacrifice: Constantine has been destined for Hell ever since a failed suicide attempt in his childhood, but at the end of the film, he attempts to commit suicide again, knowing that the Devil will come to earth to personally claim his soul, screwing up the Big Bad's plan when he arrives. This, plus John negotiating with the Devil to have another soul released from Hell, is judged selfless and heroic enough for his soul to enter Heaven... until the Devil, furious at losing his right to John's soul, brings John back to life and cures his cancer, hoping that he will screw up at some point and get condemned to Hell again.

comment
Adaptation Expansion: The novelization of the film written by John Shirley does an amazing job of expanding upon the movieverse. It develops the characters more thoroughly and explains the mythology of Constantine's job comprehensively. In addition, it includes all the deleted scenes shown on the DVD in context and fits them into continuity. For those who may be on the fence about the film, the novelization might be the tipping point into enjoying it.

Blessed with Suck: Constantine, Father Hennessy, Isabel, and Angela each have supernatural gifts which make them not quite normal in the eyes of everyday people. Seeing a nice old lady get a Nightmare Face or sensing the emotions of an event from touching the newspaper can lead to this result. John even warns Angela that once her power is activated, she won't just see them, they will know she is seeing their true face.

The Apocalypse Brings Out the Best in People: This is Gabriel's motivation for aiding Mammon. By creating a literal Hell on Earth, he believes this will force those humans that survive and endure to become better people and thus be "worthy" of God's love. And yes, Constantine flat out says Gabriel is insane for believing this.

Enemy Mine: John is desperate for help in the end and calls on Lucifer to come by committing suicide, knowing the Fallen One will come to claim him personally. John takes this moment to inform him of the villain's plan, which Satan's pride cannot let pass as it isn't his plan. A few minutes later, God and Satan team up to dispose of Gabriel. When Gabriel attempts to smite Lucifer in God's Name, the angel finds his punch halted. Lucifer recognizes this as God withdrawing the Grace of God within Gabriel and uses his powers to force Gabriel to go through transubstantiation and be mortal.

Sliding Scale of Adaptation Modification
 Constantine (2005) / int_5a852047
comment
Sliding Scale of Adaptation Modification: The plot is loosely based on the Hellblazer story "Dangerous Habits". John's lung cancer, his argument with Gabriel (who exhibits more sympathy for him here), and Satan ripping the tumors from John's body are all taken from the comic. Other similarities include Gabriel panicking when found out by God (John mentions that "He" isn't happy about his angel schmoozing with the IRA), John cutting his wrists, Satan's trail of slime, and John flipping him off at the end.

Driven to Suicide
 Constantine (2005) / int_6d332aea
comment
Driven to Suicide: The film's plot starts with the suicide of Angela's sister, Isabel, whose soul is claimed by Hell and whose body will be used as a medium for Mammon. When he was a teenager, Constantine attempted to kill himself because he saw demonically-possessed people. He managed to succeed just enough for it to count as a suicide by the rules of Heaven, but ultimately survived. He's spent the rest of his life trying to buy his way out of Hell and succeeds by killing himself again but this time as a Heroic Sacrifice. However, Satan is a sore loser and saves him from dying, banking on the likelihood that John will manage to damn himself again.

Godzilla Threshold: By the end, the stakes are so high that Constantine tries to summon Heaven with the tattoos on his forearms. Gabriel stops him mid-summon, so he goes for the next best thing: Satan.

Adaptational Badass: While certainly not a wimp by any standards, the comic book version of Constantine is more of a Guile Hero and relies on his wits and quick thinking rather than combat skills. This movie's version is a straightforward Action Hero, especially in the climax.

God and Satan Are Both Jerks
 Constantine (2005) / int_7fb70f7d
comment
God and Satan Are Both Jerks: The world in truth is a battleground for angels and demons for dominance. Humankind's casualties and/or souls lost to Hell are merely collateral damage. Both God and Lucifer allow it because they've made a deal together, instead of the Almighty curb-stomping the rebellious archangel. Lucifer may not have to free rein of the planet to damn as many as he pleases, but he’s still permitted to visit and send his half-breeds to try. God himself being little kinder, damning souls who not only end their lives but those who cannot handle the truth of the world they inhabit. It comes off as Grey-and-Black Morality, as God’s afterlife is at least pleasant, and he cares for humanity to some degree. He also accepts John into Heaven at the end, and according to the novelization, took control of John’s hand to flip off Lucifer so that he’d save John.

Heaven Seeker: The title character goes around sending half-demons back to Hell in the hope that this will gain him entry into Heaven after he dies. It's not that John Constantine likes the idea of Heaven that much — he just wants to avoid going to Hell, since he knows firsthand (due to trying to commit suicide in his youth) how horrible it is.

Lucifer being, well, Lucifer, pulls this off twice after he shows up to claim John's soul. John's being 'between worlds' has temporarily brought time almost to a standstill; Gabriel, in the other room, is moving in super-slow motion, but Lucifer meanders in at his normal pace and pulls Angela/Mammon out of the way, at which point time instantly returns back to normal. And in the reflected water that shows Mammon, he's struggling with all his might to escape his father's grasp. Lucifer doesn't so much as move a muscle. When Gabriel attempts to smite him, he freezes the angel's hand with nothing but a malicious grin. This however is at least in part because "Somebody doesn't have [Gabriel's] back any more"

The Only One Allowed to Defeat You
 Constantine (2005) / int_9b73b497
comment
The Only One Allowed to Defeat You Part of Lucifer's intervention is basically this. He believes only he is allowed to take over the human realm, not his son. He's willing to give up a sure-fire victory, just because he wants to do it himself. He makes it clear that he's willing to play the long game to accomplish it also. Lucifer's rescue of John. John's made quite the reputation for himself, to the point that he's the one soul on Earth that Lucifer would collect in person. So when it looks like John's about to be admitted into Heaven after sacrificing his life to bargain for Isabel's soul, Lucifer rips out his lung cancer, extending his life just so he can have another chance to screw up and damn his soul once again.

Foreshadowing: Papa Midnite tells Constantine that his soul is the only one Satan himself would come to collect. He's right. Early on when talking to Gabriel, Constantine says so them that they should be the one that goes to hell. And sure enough, Gabriel is cast out of God's good grace, made a human and the whole 'making pacts with demons to overrun the Earth' thing is very likely to condemn them to hell.

Year Inside, Hour Outside: According to Constantine, seven minutes on Earth equals a lifetime in Hell. This is shown when he enters Hell; he orders Angela to leave the room, but the moment she closes the door, Constantine has returned, having had enough time to wander to the hospital and grab Isabel's tag.

comment
A major plot point in the film is that, according to Catholic doctrine, people who commit suicide always go to Hell. This has not been the case since 1997, when the Church concluded that while suicide is a grave matter, people who take their own lives might still be saved. note In the Catholic Church, the three requirements for a sin to be mortal is that it be a grave matter, that it be committed with full knowledge, and that it be committed with deliberate consent. While suicide is certainly a grave matter, one or both of the other two requirements for the sin to be damning might be missing. Likewise, the concept of brain death means a person who commits suicide might be able to repent in the moments before death. Isabel's suicide likely wouldn't be treated as a mortal sin by the Catholic Church in Real Life, since she suffered from mental illness and wasn't fully aware of her actions; in any case, she certainly wouldn't have been denied a Catholic funeral for committing a mortal sin. Even more egregiously: Constantine is told that he's permanently barred from Heaven for attempting suicide as a teenager, since he was clinically dead for a few minutes (technically making his suicide successful). The only reason that the Catholic Church historically believed that suicide resulted in automatic damnation was that it was viewed as a mortal sin that a person couldn't repent, since you can't repent after death; since Constantine survived his suicide attempt, this wouldn't apply to him, and there's no reason he couldn't be absolved after repenting afterward. Its partly justified in Constantine’s case as most of his attempts at atoning are done almost purely out of the desire to avoid being sent to Hell rather than a being done out of goodness.

Christianity is Catholic: Catholicism is the only version shown. The novelization explains that Constantine focuses on these relics because his natural understanding of them based on his background of a Christian culture means that they are more powerful than alternatives might be.

No-Sell Lucifer being, well, Lucifer, pulls this off twice after he shows up to claim John's soul. John's being 'between worlds' has temporarily brought time almost to a standstill; Gabriel, in the other room, is moving in super-slow motion, but Lucifer meanders in at his normal pace and pulls Angela/Mammon out of the way, at which point time instantly returns back to normal. And in the reflected water that shows Mammon, he's struggling with all his might to escape his father's grasp. Lucifer doesn't so much as move a muscle. When Gabriel attempts to smite him, he freezes the angel's hand with nothing but a malicious grin. This however is at least in part because "Somebody doesn't have [Gabriel's] back any more" Balthazar laughs off a blast of Dragon's Breath, pointing out he was born from fire. A vial of holy water melts half of his human face-off, exposing the demon underneath, but doesn't seem particularly painful either. Holy knuckle dusters however work juuuust fine.

Waterlogged Warzone: Constantine arranges for the water in the hospital ceiling sprinkler system to be changed into holy water. He then sets off the sprinklers with a lighter, causing the half-breed demons he's facing to be doused with the holy water. This destroys their false human disguises, which makes them more vulnerable to attack. The water spray also covers the floor with water for the ensuing battle.

Twins Are Special: Isabela and Angela were born with strong psychic powers, strong enough for both to be considered good vessels for Lucifer's son Mammon to inhabit.

Cool and Unusual Punishment: Constantine interrogates Balthazar and gets him to talk by reading him his last rites, threatening him with the punishment of being forgiven for his sins and being sent to Heaven instead of Hell when he dies. Balthazar protests that John doesn't have the power to do this, he's not a priest, but John keeps going and it finally scares him enough to spill the beans. Afterward John informs him that you have to ask for absolution for it to count, and he was probably right on the priest point anyway.

Pride: What saves the world. Namely the pride Satan has is so great even when his son and his allies are inches away from unleashing his son onto Earth and making it a hellhole, Satan cannot abide this as the world is his to damn and destroy. He effortlessly sends his son back to Hell and defeats Gabriel.

Shout-Out
 Constantine (2005) / int_c75df49a
comment
Shout-Out When Angela Dodson wakes up in her apartment, her black cat meows and walks across her bed - a reference to the scene in The Matrix where Neo (also played by Keanu Reeves) sees the black cat meow and walk by twice. After some demons are destroyed, Angela starts coughing due to the smell of sulfur/sulphur. Constantine says "Happens to everyone the first time", a reference to the "Everyone falls the first time" bit in The Matrix. While Balthazar is looking at himself in a mirror, his image starts to distort and bubbles form on the glass just before the mirror explodes. This is a combination of two scenes in The Matrix film series: the one in The Matrix where Neo is looking into a mirror and it distorts, and the one in The Matrix Reloaded where bubbles form on a door just before it explodes.

Rerouted from Heaven
 Constantine (2005) / int_cb4c72d8
comment
Rerouted from Heaven: Inverted and then played straight. As John attempted suicide in his youth, he is bound for Hell no matter what he did because many of his good deeds are done to try and save himself from the consequence of his attempted suicide not because it is the right thing to do. But when he sacrifices his life and soul to stop the Big Bad, Satan offers him a reward. Instead of healing his mortal wounds, John requests the release of one soul in Hell. Satan obliges, not immediately recognizing the selfless virtue in his action. This action redeems John in the eyes of the Lord and Satan quickly finds John is being rerouted from Hell to Heaven. Not having this, Satan spitefully resurrects John, painfully curing his lung cancer and healing his injuries in the process, in the hopes that he'll screw up and get himself damned again.

Artistic License – Traditional Christianity
 Constantine (2005) / int_da14a081
comment
Artistic License – Traditional Christianity: The film borrows symbols and names from Christianity, but that's where the similarities end. A major plot point in the film is that, according to Catholic doctrine, people who commit suicide always go to Hell. This has not been the case since 1997, when the Church concluded that while suicide is a grave matter, people who take their own lives might still be saved. note In the Catholic Church, the three requirements for a sin to be mortal is that it be a grave matter, that it be committed with full knowledge, and that it be committed with deliberate consent. While suicide is certainly a grave matter, one or both of the other two requirements for the sin to be damning might be missing. Likewise, the concept of brain death means a person who commits suicide might be able to repent in the moments before death. Isabel's suicide likely wouldn't be treated as a mortal sin by the Catholic Church in Real Life, since she suffered from mental illness and wasn't fully aware of her actions; in any case, she certainly wouldn't have been denied a Catholic funeral for committing a mortal sin. Even more egregiously: Constantine is told that he's permanently barred from Heaven for attempting suicide as a teenager, since he was clinically dead for a few minutes (technically making his suicide successful). The only reason that the Catholic Church historically believed that suicide resulted in automatic damnation was that it was viewed as a mortal sin that a person couldn't repent, since you can't repent after death; since Constantine survived his suicide attempt, this wouldn't apply to him, and there's no reason he couldn't be absolved after repenting afterward. Its partly justified in Constantine’s case as most of his attempts at atoning are done almost purely out of the desire to avoid being sent to Hell rather than a being done out of goodness. Constantine states at one point that Jesus didn't die by crucifixion, but from being pierced in the side by a Roman spear; upon hearing this, Angela (a devout Catholic) states that she already knows this from reading Scripture. But according to Scripture, Jesus did die by crucifixion; the Roman soldier only pierced him with a spear to test whether he was dead.note  In those days, it was believed that human blood separated into its base components after a person's death. Most scholars believe that the line in the Gospels about "blood and water" flowing from Jesus' pierced side referred to this (the water in his blood had separated, proving that he was really dead). The novelization justifies this by noting that the Spear just played its part in the death of Jesus without being responsible for it on its own. There's also the fact that the Spear of Destiny (also called "The Holy Lance") is considered a sacred relic by the Catholic Church, making it pretty questionable that it would cause demonic possession. While the Catholic Church does currently recognize exorcism as a sacramental practice, it's a religious rite that can only be administered by an ordained priest (just like baptism, confession, and communion). No Catholic priest would ever officially recognize Constantine as an exorcist, since he's a layperson. The Bible that they use in Hell has an extra five chapters in First Corinthians. This is pretty implausible, since First Corinthians and Second Corinthians were actually the personal correspondence between the Apostle Paul and the Church in the city of Corinth; a Satanic religious text probably wouldn't contain a Christian apostle's letters to the Church of Corinth.note  One possible Hand Wave is that Paul's other letters to the Church of Corinth were lost to human records (but known to demons), or were removed from the official Biblical account for whatever reason. But that just raises the question of why a Satanic text would contain Paul's letters in the first place.

Good Smoking, Evil Smoking Papa Midnite subverts the cigarillo trope by being a good/neutral witch doctor turned bartender. Constantine smokes excessively, only to find out during the movie that he has lung cancer. After Constantine willingly sacrifices himself to save the world (allowing him to enter Heaven), Satan ends up curing his cancer to keep him alive so he can claim him later. At the end of the movie, he's seen popping gum in his mouth.

Hijacked by Jesus: The movie removes all elements of non-Christian mythology from the setting. The novelisation slightly justifies this by explaining that Constantine's weapons focus on Christian holy relics as he comes from a Christian culture, giving him a greater innate understanding of their power that increases their effectiveness.

 Constantine (2005) / int_e78c698f
comment
In Prison with the Rogues: Discussed. Constantine's soul has been destined for Hell ever since an attempted suicide in his childhood, and he's trying to earn his way into Heaven by banishing demons that don't belong in the human world. However, he's very aware that if his plan doesn't work he'll be even more screwed than he would have been otherwise, since, as he tells a police officer he befriends: "What would you do if you were sentenced to a prison where half the inmates were put there by you?"

Wait Here
 Constantine (2005) / int_ea382fea
comment
Wait Here When John goes to confront the half-demon Balthazar he tells his potential Love Interest Angela Dodson to stay in the car. After a while she decides to go after him, ends up losing the amulet he gave her to protect her, and is captured by their enemies. When John goes to convince Papa Midnite to let him use the Chair, he anticipates that the confrontation will be dangerous and tells his apprentice Chas Kramer to wait. After the encounter ends amicably Chas shows up without being summoned and starts to show off his book learning, to Papa Midnite's amusement.

Conversation Cut

comment
Conversation Cut: Constantine and Angela Dodson are standing in a room in a psychiatric institution, talking about Angela's sister Isabel. Constantine asks Angela how long she had Isobel committed to the institution. The scene suddenly changes to Isobel's room in the institution and Angela says "Two weeks". In other words, Constantine asked her the question, they walked up to Isabel's room, then Angela answered the question.

Guns Are Worthless: Angela's normal pistol is the straight example. Constantine subverts it by assembling his own gun out of a variety of holy items, allowing him to quickly blast his way through a room full of half-demons.

Psychic Children
 Constantine (2005) / int_ec7c50af
comment
Psychic Children: The title character and Isabel and Angela Dodson all first displayed their psychic abilities as children. Unfortunately, these abilities helped them to see the half-demons infesting the Earth, resulting in two of them being forced to undergo psychiatric treatment and later committing suicide. Angela had to lie about hers to avoid the same fate and ended up losing her ability.

 Constantine (2005) / int_f8e010ce
comment
Evil Cannot Comprehend Good: Gabriel cannot fathom the possibility Constantine would die to summon Satan to save the day nor that their Father would revoke his ability to smite Satan in His Name despite just trying to bring about the end of the world. Played with with Satan. He doesn't comprehend in the moment that when John asks for another soul to be freed as a reward, it would count as a Heroic Sacrifice. However, he is quick to realize the implications when John is prevented from being taken by His power and the gates of Heaven begin to draw John in.

Meta Casting: Keanu Reeves was a very... odd choice to play John Constantine, but as it says elsewhere, the movie is good if you don't mind its In Name Only connection to the comic book. So as long as the protagonist doesn't have to be a fast-talking scouse Anti-Hero... who's better for the role than The Devil's Advocate?
