CineTV Contest: Constantine
Choosing a Keanu Reeves movie is reviewing a good set of them, but without a doubt I lean towards Constantine, I think it is my favorite, every time it is shown on television I see it. CineTV Contest #54 - Favorite Keanu Reeves Movie this week brings us this great actor from We always hear good things about him.
Inviting friends @purrix and @leticiapereira to participate.
Our John Constantine has been to hell and back.
This phrase catches their attention, I also its paranormal theme, that world of other dimensions, the fight between good and evil is very attractive and the way they present it where they give us information about that other world.
Constantine (Keanu Reeves) has been born with a gift that he did not ask for, he has the ability to see both angels and demons that walk the earth under a human aspect.
Desperate, he took his own life and discovered that this world that terrified him and that no one believed him, did exist. The medicine brought him back. When he recovered, he decided to accept his gift and find a way to learn from this experience, trying to earn points by sending those demons back and thus helping other people.
Constantine has flaws, he is not a normal human, he smokes, drinks excessively, he does not take care of himself, he does not want human recognition and he does not want to be seen as a saint by the people he saves.
This messy life will take its toll again, he wants a postponement of his cancer.
We see how a young woman jumps from a large building and we soon find out what she has to do with the scene when we see a skeptical policewoman (Raquel Weisz as Angela Dodson) enter as her twin sister.
Coincidence of strange messages and a dream make her look for information from that paranormal world, since she does not believe that her sister had committed suicide and ends up finding the name of Constantine.
The film takes place in the city of Los Angeles. After their meeting, they are trapped in a series of supernatural events, which for 脕ngela does not seem normal. Together they will take the road to find out why Angela's twin sister took her own life and is in hell without the right by the Catholic Church to enter heaven.
Angela with the help of Constantine remembers again that she was also psychic in her childhood but that she put a veil to not look at him anymore.
Now they will try to save the sister, which is difficult since the very son of the devil wants to pass into this world and needs a psychic to do it.
One of the most striking scenes is when the devil goes up to take the soul of Constantine, who has cut his veins, before the sincere request before God, to help him save them. Constantine becomes so heavy that the devil can't take him to his kingdom and since he doesn't want to lose, a great miracle happens.
I keep reading for when they make a second part that will surely catch us all.

CineTV Contest: Constantine
Escoger una pel铆cula de Keanu Reeves es revisar un buen conjunto de ellas, pero sin duda me inclino por Constantine, creo que es mi favorita, cada vez que la pasan por la televisi贸n la veo. CineTV Contest #54 - Favorite Keanu Reeves Movie nos trae esta semana a este gran actor del que siempre escuchamos cosas buenas de el.
Invitando a las amigas @purrix y @leticiapereira a participar.
Nuestro John Constantine ha estado en el infierno y ha vuelto de el.
Les llama la atenci贸n esta frase, a mi tambi茅n su tema paranormal, ese mundo de otras dimensiones, la lucha entre el mal y el bien resulta muy atractivo y la forma como lo presentan donde nos van dando informaci贸n sobre ese otro mundo.
Constantine (Keanu Reeves) ha nacido con un don que el no pidi贸, tiene la capacidad de ver tanto a los 谩ngeles como a los demonios que andan por la tierra bajo un aspecto humano.
Desesperado se quito la vida y descubri贸 que ese mundo que lo aterraba y que nadie le cre铆a, si exist铆a. La medicina lo trajo de vuelta. Al recuperarse decidi贸 aceptar su don y buscar la forma de aprender de esta experiencia, tratando de ganarse puntos enviando a esos demonios de vuelta y as铆 ayudando a otras personas.
Constantine tiene defectos es un humano nada normal, fuma, bebe en exceso no se cuida, no quiere reconocimiento humano y tampoco ser visto como un santo por las personas que salva.
Esta vida desordenada le pasara factura otra vez, el quiere un aplazamiento de su c谩ncer.
Vemos como una joven salta de un gran edificio y pronto averiguaremos que relaci贸n tiene en la escena al ver entrar a una esc茅ptica polic铆a (Raquel Weisz como 脕ngela Dodson) como su hermana gemela.
Coincidencia de mensajes extra帽os y un sue帽o la hacen buscar informaci贸n de ese mundo paranormal, ya que ella no cree que su hermana se hubiese suicidado y termina encontrando el nombre de Constantine.
La pel铆cula se desarrolla en la ciudad de Los 脕ngeles. Tras su encuentro quedan atrapados en una serie de acontecimientos sobrenaturales, que para 脕ngela no le parece nada normal. Juntos tomaran el camino para averiguar porque la hermana gemela de 脕ngela se quito la vida y esta en el infierno sin derecho por la iglesia cat贸lica de entrar al cielo.
脕ngela con la ayuda de Constantine vuelve a recordar que tambi茅n ella era ps铆quica en su infancia pero que ella puso un velo para no mirarlo m谩s.
Ahora trataran de buscar salvar a la hermana, lo que se dificultad ya que el mism铆simo hijo del demonio quiere pasar para este mundo y necesita una ps铆quica para hacerlo.
Una de las escenas m谩s llamativa es cuando el diablo sube a llevarse el alma de Constantine, que se ha cortado las venas, ante la petici贸n sincera ante Dios, que lo ayude a salvarlas. Constantine se vuelve tan pesado que el diablo no logra llev谩rselo a su reino y como no quiere perder ocurre un gran milagro.
Sigo leyendo para cuando realicen una segunda parte que seguro nos atrapara a todos.
