I have never read the comics so i wouldn't know what was from the comics and what isn't. But the only thing i do know is the he is from Liverpool [city where i am from :)] and in the film i don't think he is.

you dont see many DC characters from England, so to see this i was happy and to see that he was from Liverpool i was ever more happy to know there is a DC character from the city where i was born.

But does anyone like the film?

I did

I did enjoy it but that was from someone that has never read any of the comics. I would give the movie a 6 out of ten. Worth watching 1-5 times but not worth seeing in theater or buying (Yes I have my own rating system for movies)

I thought it was kind of mediocre. I didn't appreciate getting pummeled over the head with the anti-smoking message through the whole movie. Could've been much better.

You might want to put spoiler the next time you wreck the movie! but i enjoyed this film,

it could have been made much better though. It was nothing like i thought it would be, as it was a tad underated, so i expected the worst, but i acctually enjoyed it when i started to get into it.

overall i would give it 3 out of 5, it's not the worst thing you'll ever spend money on, but i would just watch it free of charge anyway.

i thought it was boring though i dont remember the anti-smoking aspect... i must have been yawning at the time.

Haven't read the comics either, and i thought it was horrible.

And Keanu Reeves couldn't even dye his hair for the role? Pathetic.

read the comics, you'll actually end up liking John Constantine rather than at the end of the movie where you thought he was a loser

It was okay. It would have been better if they did not use the name Constantine because the movie and comic versions are very different.
