... they see you.
good gawd.. i just caught one of the best movies i've seen recently.. and that's keanu reeves' constantine.
man you have no idea how this movie fulfilled all my fantasies. i've always been so interested in stories that deals with angels... demons... Lucifer... the devil... God.. it just fascinates the hell out of me (no pun intended). i'm not a believer.. and perhaps that's exactly why i like stories about them.. twisted... out of this world.. the more dark they portray the light to be... the more i like it.
and i have a thing for flawed characters... unwilling heroes with an unbearable past... they have so much on their shoulders. they hate it but yet they don't have a choice. john constantine don't kill demons because he wanted to save the world or mankind. he did so all for himself... so that he can go back to heaven. so that god will take him again because he was meant to go to hell since he killed himself before.
i love heroes like that. they are so much easier to relate too.
and i love the humour in this movie. the funny lines are soo evenly spread out, coming in at the right places... not too much, not too little. they gave constantine this really likeable sense of humour.... sometimes making his already pathetic life (he's dying of terminal lung cancer) even more pathetic. but i like it that he can always joke about his predicament. an attitude that i should adopt.. or do i already have it in my blood?
ooooh. i have something in common with my favourite hero .. at least for now. but he definitely made it into my list.
gosh i wanna watch it again. keanu reeves' really cool. heck those who say he can't act. his characters are just all that... au natural... u can't put someone really dramatic into his roles... it would ruin that kind of poise and composure.
man... keanu rocks big time.. BIG TIME.
and i almost forgot.. HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR~
