Kanokon (2008)
I have seen a worse anime...
...but just one. This is way bellow all standards: most of all aspects, it requires as small as possible brain from audience. All is about sex, which is really dull, maybe from 5-years old male perspective, but with a very serious face though. Add a bit mystical elements, just in case the audience is really bored. It does not have a story at all, though it pretends to have some. Alas, the very insufficient script cannot be saved in any way. Main line goes about this way: "oh I want to get laid but I do not want to be the one who gets laid and see all the chicks want to get me laid though I am the biggest loser in the world, yes man this sucks and this is the way that all should like it".
Constantine (2005)
Not bad at all
It seems to be rather a provocative concept of the cold war between the Hell and Heaven (who knows who's good or evil...)... The heap of mystery, exorcism, action and the necessary explanations is surprisingly well balanced.
Keanu is a bit uneasy in the character I guess, but keeps quite consistent "him" through all the story. Many of other actors performed really over-the-standard! What I really liked -- a handful of very decent jokes or against-the-cliché scenes, like the few last seconds.
I am not a fan of Hellblazer so .... being intact of this "purity or deviation from the original".... I found the movie really mind-inspiring... Not that bad, just perfect 9!
