Constantine is spelled B-L-A-H or Reverend Jim

Just got back from seeing "Constantine" with Stobes, Erin, Ashley, and Brad. Not having read "Hellblazer" before I was going in without any comic book bias. Even with that fact I was severely underwhelmed. Keanu was far too pretty and whitebread to be a grizzled exorcist suffering from lung cancer. He also dressed far too "hip." His acting, as always, leaves something to be desired but in this case, he wasn't called on for all that much in the way of emotional range. The movie didn't really have all that much action and was kind of slow and meandering in places. It wasn't a terrible waste of time or something that encourages the gouging out of one's eyes, but also wasn't some kind of magnum opus that warrants the spending of $8.75 to see. Thumbs pointed at an approximately 45 degree angle downward.
What does rock however, is the character of Reverend Jim on Taxi. Having only vague recollections of how hilarious Christopher Lloyd was on that show, it was quite refreshing to see it now and be cracked up. He was absolutely brilliant as the perma fried burnout.
Last night I was able to hang out with Tyler and Kari for a bit; doing such awesome things as watching "Krush Groove" again and ordering some tasty takeout from Santa Lucia. Any place that'll deliver at 2 am is fine by me! Especially when you can get pie!
