Despite having Keanu Reeves in it (dont get me wrong, I like the guy but his acting range is minimal).

Constantine - There is not much to say except that the storyline is far too confusing and long to explain and the acting is far too terrible to imagine. Once again Keanu Reeves has disappointed us with a overly-rated, overly, overly advertised movie. The only thing that sheds lights on the film is the special effects.
