Constantine

There is a huge difference between the performances of some actors in the past years and their performances in their recent movies. It's quite upsetting to see an actor you admire perform so poorly. One of the latest additions to the ring is Keanu Reeves!

When I saw Keanu Reeves in the 2005 movie Constantine, I could swear that the Keanu Reeves in the new movie is not the same Keanu Reeves. Of course I am being ironic, even though the movies are different, the actor is the same, but there is a big difference between the performances. I think it's natural for an actor or any other professional to have ups and downs in their performance, but I don't understand such high zigzags.

Before going into the story of Constantine, I would like to say that I think Keanu Reeves, who plays the character of John Constantine, gave the performance of his life. I think he played his career movie. Because I don't expect him to give a better performance than this anymore. As a moviegoer, of course I would love to be wrong.

The actor, who plays a character with mystical powers, loses his life for a short time and has the misfortune of seeing hell. After being brought back to life, our hero devotes himself to capturing the demons of the world and sending them back to hell, but he is also looking for a way to get to heaven.

I can say that Keanu Reeves fully inhabits his role with the character he brings to life. The way he reflected his dedication and his body language was perfect. The way he adapted to the story of the movie and his unique facial expressions were also worth seeing. I liked the way he smoked the cigarette the most and his indifference and defiance of life in the moments he smoked.

I have to say that Constantine adds as much value to the movie as a character can add to the movie. The character of John really lives the movie and manages to draw the audience into the movie all by himself. Except for the beginning movies of the Matrix movie series, this is the first time I liked Keanu Reeves so much, I even think he is at a higher level.

The secret code of the movie is "sacrifice" and for me the message was that everything should be done for the sake of faith and what you believe in. The atmosphere created through what we see and what we don't see was impressive. The image of hell was the most chilling. The visuals of mystical creatures and demons complemented the mood of the movie with the story.

You should definitely watch the movie Constantine. I would like to renew that I watched the best Keanu Reeves performance I have ever seen. If you are a smoker, throughout the movie; there is someone I believe you will accompany and his name is; John Constantine

Thank you for being here and reading. I hope I have given you an idea about the movie. I wish everyone who will watch it a good time. See you in my next article, goodbye!
