Constantine

The film needed more cynical humor because there are some good comedic moments, but it missed other opportunities, and given the genre and material, I think it would elevated the material on a human level because of the stakes at hand (mainly the hinted-at past relationships/occupations of Constantine and Midnight, and others before adopting their current roles in the universe). That said, the film could have been tightened up by about 10 minutes.

But, I wasn't all that bored with the film, but it did lack some oomph that could have made it a better film.

I give it 2.5 stars, or a grade of C+.
