Constantine: City of Demons - The Movie

Constantine: City of Demons is a violent, gory and very atmospheric horror and adventure fantasy adult animated film. The movie is full of interesting characters (mostly demons) besides John Constantine. I loved particularly Nightmare Nurse and Angela! There is some dark humor, but also a lot of pure good-quality horror, with several remarkable situations, places and creatures. It is an animated DC Comics movie that engages spectator throughout the story, until the bright ending. The portrayal of Los Angeles was very innovative. Good script and nice animation constitute a formidable combination.

That's a mini review about the movie, not the tv show (even if the show is part of the movie). I watched the film yesterday which contained the first 5 episodes of the animated show and took them further into a full, completed story.

I don't blame people who didn't like the show since the episodes were ridiculously short (only 5 minutes each) but the film is a different story. Matt Ryan shines once again as Constantine with good support from the rest of the cast. The story is probably the darkest story I've seen in an animated film and there are many shocking scenes and surprises. As I mentioned in the title, this is undoubtedly the best adaption of John Constantine. The character is actually a damaged character, haunted from his past, trying to find some purpose in life (at least that's how the original Hellblazer presented him to us) and the film captures that perfectly.

I liked the live action series, I loved the Justice League Dark film but City of Demons goes even deeper and gives us the darkest and more mature animated film/series in the DC Universe. Highly recommended.

City of Demons was very good! With that said, the horror story theme really made the movie extremely interesting, along with great story telling. DC and WB did a great job with this movie and the character of Constantine! We are all are begging for more!

It's really one the best outing for Constantine ! Superb animation a bit over the top gore but really like how his character is shaping up. And it looks promising too, he shaping up to be an important character in the larger scheme of things. Looking forward for more movies on him and would like Zatanna with him too and her own movie of course.

The twelfth entry in the DC Animated Movie Universe and the 34th overall entry in the DC Universe Animated Original Movies. Originally premiered as a web series and later released as a feature-length film on DVD and Blu-ray.

A much darker tone than the rest of the films. Solid animation, outstanding voice cast, fantastic direction and a well written engaging screenplay.
