I just got back from the movies and I saw Constantine. The theatre was almost empty and that was an indication right there. The story slowly unraveled had some great special effects, but didn't have 1/2 the kick as The Matrix did. I know they wanted a heaven and hell Matrix movie, as much as they didn't want to admit it, but it just wasn't there for me. The whole smoking thing really began to annoy me. When you see 2000 times you will understane. The cheese factor was minimal too...there were only just a couple 1985 chessy lines so that was a plus. I give this movie 2.5 stars out of 4 for the special effects, editing, and soundtrack.
