Source : SuperHeroHype Reviewer : Mr Hand Date : 31st December 2004 Spoilers : None Now I don't know much about the comic on which this film is based on but I did enjoy what I saw on screen. Keanu Reeves was ok in his role but he looks a little too glum for his own good and really did not fit the character he was playing. While Keanu is the star of the film, it's the performance of Rachel Weisz that really shines here and she does draw you into the story more than Keanu does.

I did not buy Keanu as this kind of character and he did not hold himself well with the material at hand. Keanu has a charismatic presence on screen and that is what makes watching some of his films worth while but the character he plays in this movie is just an arrogant ***hole who should have gotten his clock cleaned a long time ago.

Also know that he has a great cast behind him that will make him look better while he’s on the screen. One of them is Rachel Weisz, whose very good performance makes this movie a much better film that I think it needed to be.

Source : SuperHeroHype Reviewer : Clark Date : 28th December 2004 Spoilers : None Keanu Reeves is not John Constantine and no matter how many cigarettes he smokes and how big his trench coat is, he still not John Constantine. He acts more like Archie Bunker than the sorcerer we all know and love who likes to add more fuel to the fire in the battle between good and evil.
