Just came back an hour ago from watching this one.

I loved it, one of the weirdest, mainstream hollywood movie this year so far.

the plot stayed true to the spirit of Hellblazer and i didnt mind the american/keanu version of John Constantine.

some of the effects were abit cheesy and so was some of the dialogue.

But great perfomances by rachel Weisz and tilda swinton and keanu was not bad either as John C.

Those who dont follow the comic might get a bit confused though.

FYI, this movie is released in asia first before being showned in the US.

edit: stay on after the credits roll. a friend of mine ( who stayed, i didnt) said there were some surprises at the end.

it looks spectacular, and even though i never read the hellblazer comic book, i can see its fairly close to it from the brief descriptions i have read

I wondered if the plot would stay true to the spirit of Hellblazer. I still don't know if I "buy" Keanu though, I really can't stand his work, to me he's just terrible in everything. I'm still trying to decide if I want to see this film in the theater or just wait.
