So, Have you guys seen THIS movie? Love starting my movie posts that way. Talk about Metaphysical Movies! WOW!! Keanu Reeves stars, and if you don’t like ugly demons or incredible manifestations of HELL, then this movie is NOT for you. But if you can tolerate it for a few, give this film a shot, because once you’re in it for ten minutes, I guarantee you, won’t be walking out on this film. FANTASTIC imagination that creates characters that are believable and engaging, These characters are an ensemble of metaphysical delight. Nearly every character is flawed in some way and also have some Metaphysical gift that sustains them. This movie is FLAT OUT fun!! Provided of course, you like exorcists, angels, and demons…..the devil and even GOD shows up for this film. This a truly amazing accomplishment. THIS a Metaphysical wonderland……
All of the characters here are fictional, however a few have a place in historical writings but this movie does not try to infringe on anything or anyone…….it stands alone in it’s creativity. It doesn’t matter that the whole thing is a fiction, the story line is a BLAST!! Another 2005 release, this movie is inspired by the comic character, “John Constantine”, first introduced by well known comic book writer/ creator ALAN MOORE while writing “The Swamp Thing” (comic book) which first appeared in 1985. John Constantine is an exorcist who lives in Los Angeles. e was born with the gift to see Angels and Demons on earth. He commited suicide at age 15 after not being able to handle his visions. CONSTANTINE (Keanu Reeves) was revived by paramedics but spent 2 minutes in Hell. (not a place to frequent) He knows that because of his actions, his soul, is condemned to damnation when he dies, and he’s recently learned that he has Cancer from smoking, (which is nice touch by the writer) Now check this out, the cast;
THE CAST; KEANU REEVES……….Exorcist extraordinaire,
Rachel Weisz………….dual roles …..Powerful psychic and Cop
Shia Lebeouf…../………Student of Metaphysics and Driver
Tilda Swanson………. Gabriel, half-breed angel, androgynous
Djimon Honsou………..Fantastic as Papa Midnite/witch doctor
Pruitt Taylor Vince……Insomniac, alcoholic, priest
NOW, if that’s not a line-up for a “METAPHYSICAL” movie, then I I’ve never seen one. They pull this off flawlessly. The depictions of Hell are worth the watch alone. There is a taste in the photo above. Hell is breathtaking, i’ll leave it that…..you guys tell me in your comments, what you think! The coolest thing about this film is “CONSTANTINE” himself. Keanu Reeves plays him as a person in constant contemplation, continually trying to figure out a way, not to go to Hell. It really is an engrossing role and Reeves drains it for everything it’s worth! As I sat watching the gadgets and incredible artwork that went into making this film, I couldn’t help but be reminded of the original “Matrix” because Reeves kicks some serious Butt in this flick. And as a movie goer I think we’re comfortable with Keanu [playing such a role, and it certainly makes it an easier view.. ……this movie is not for the squeamish…….but if you can look beyond that, then you’ll find the kind of movie that should go in your library of movies. Because, some rainy day, you’re going to watch it again. It gets a red chair and a big Wordy explanation……but for me there’s only one word that ‘s
capable of describing this movie………………..INCREDIBLE………….just for it’s beautiful MOVIE MAGIC………..I am Dartanion2……….and that’s the way I see it………..smiles,………..T xx
Deaest Tony, i hope your proceedure for your feet went well. This is interesting. I have not seen as many movies nor understood them but it is special to see what you see and share here. Thanks for sharing and caring. I had a very bad day healthwise yesterday I quickly was so swollen and that was extreme but go to the neurologist today. I hope they have some clarity on the whole matter soon. I am trusting Father God to get me through this time into a more meaningful experience ahead. I recently read a few more things here that spoke of another site and they were critical but knew that was not something I knew about nor related to and so it was confusing that they went back and forth on here about it. Every site is unique in its growth and changes to improve it. I am glad I have this experience with you here. I needed to see what you were sharing in your writings and what those writings were all about and this has been very special 🙂 ..so thank you for being here and inviting me. This has helped me sort out a lot by trying to post a few pieces. I most likely will never be a professional as some but I love creative souls and especially you and some who write and are your friends here. I hope you are doing better and share anout that too. Love and hugs to you dearest Tony. Be well and write on ! 🙂 🙂 🙂 oooxxx love to your Mom and Hi, to Isaac 🙂
Hi Kate, so sorry about having to to the neurologist…..you KNOW I can totally relate……especially the swelling issue…….when I swell everything becomes much more painful…..but I have it under control now…….I take FUROSEMIDE…for swelling and it’s been working well so far……I have hydrochlorothiazide as a back up……..if I swell, my day is done, can’t function……so sorry to hear the suffering in your comment here…….I will pray for you this evening……….I am so happy to see you participating in writing here and on COSMO….love it when you pop up……you’re such an inspiration to me sweetheart…………God bless you and keep you safe ,….sister girl…..smiles….tony xx
Thank you dear Tony for your kindness and prayers. That means so very much to me. You are wonderful friend 🙂 hugs and better days for you too dearest Tony 🙂 xo
Dear Tony, No help from doctors so still hanging on a limb for all that. No major neurological answers. More specialists recommended……still struggling but i will yet hope it can be overcome. Hope there are more comments on your movie..it should be interesting. Hugs and love to you dear Tony oooxxx:) 🙂 🙂 from your Kate
Hi Kate, don’t worry I think…GOD will always be there for you…..about the comments….not to worry…….this post has received nearly 70 views….just not everyone in comments, some people don’t write English well etc…
Reblogged this on Metaphysics and the Movies according to Dartanion2 and commented:
Hi guys……it’s a Saturday………..good day for a movie………..people ask me all the time about my favorite films!….My favorites (almost) always have some Metaphysical aspect to them. I do love a good Love story sometimes too!…But, mostly they have some spiritual or Metaphysical twist which is interesting to me because one of my favorite films really didn’t do so well at the box office and didn’t get a lot of attention. But on my blog it’s gotten more views than any other posts on metaphysical movies (aside from “the abyss”) and frankly, I was shocked. So take a look for yourself. leave me a comment on “CONSTANTINE”, I’d love to hear what you thought. Have a great Saturday and if you get the chance I definitely recommend this film…..INCREDIBLE special effects in this movie………..smiles………….T xx
