Constantine. 2005.

Exorcist and supernatural demonologist John Constantine helps a detective prove that her twin sister suicide was the work of something else and believes that demons are trying to enter the human world.

This has always been a favourite supernatural film of mine, Keanu Reeves plays the comic character chain smoking exorcist Constantine who doesn't seem scared and always raises the middle finger at the right moment. I was hesitant about Rachel Weisz after seeing her in The Mummy, in this she and Keanu seem to compliment each other's acting which makes it a perfect duo to work from different backgrounds.

The special make-up effects are amazing in this especially when John fights Balthazar with one side of his head showing his true inner demonic features and after his last rights. It was a laugh to see Peter Stormare as Lucifer who has always been portrayed as no nonsense leader of hell but in this he seems a laid back figure with a sense of humour a little bit. Always worth a watch every now and then.
