Constantine 2 (2025) sees Keanu Reeves return as John Constantine, a chain-smoking exorcist facing down the latest in hell’s uprising. Older and rough around the edges, he’s pulled from the shadows when a wave of possessions hints at a demonic escape tied to his own damned soul. Directed by Francis Lawrence, it’s a raw, R-rated dive into occult grit.

The dynamic sparks with Constantine’s cynical edge—Reeves’ low growl bears a lifetime of scars—taking on a hellish foe shrouded in sulfurous dread. New allies and old ghosts swirl into the mix, fueling a slow-burn clash of wits and willpower. The action blazes—dark rituals turn into frenzied brawls, lit by hellfire and despair.

Visually, it’s a gothic gut punch—dirty alleys and hellish crevices shimmer with a smoky, shadowy haze, shot with a swooping, moody lens. The CGI conjures demons with jagged flair, matched by a score of ringing bells and grinding distortion. It’s a hellscape that grabs you by the throat.

Constantine 2 (2025) is a lean, mean return to the trench coat, blending Reeves’ quiet storm with unholy terror. It’s a devil’s bargain worth taking.
