Chatty Hollywood

Chapter 397 The Devil’s Substitute

In the movie, under the guidance of Constantine, Angela immersed herself in the water.

Although she almost drowned because she was immersed for a long time, she finally managed to open her yin and yang eyes and found a clue.

That's a coin.

Hidden in an inconspicuous corner near the place where Biman died.

"It's him!?"

Seeing this coin, Constantine immediately realized who the murderer of Biman was——

That was the demon he met who threatened him in Midnight Dad's bar!

Balthazar! !

He remembered clearly that the nasty demon liked to play with the same coin...

Angry, Constantine immediately prepared weapons and went to Balthazar for revenge——

The next scene is an action scene.

It should be said that compared to the original "Hell Detective", the action scenes of this movie shot by Charlotte are much more detailed.

At least, this fight between Constantine and the demon Balthazar is not an American boxing fight in the simple sense.

In fact, this action scene is more like the action scenes of later Hollywood - the kind that combines a variety of fighting techniques, including Chinese Kung Fu, with a realistic and fierce style.

You know, it's still only 1997, and we haven't experienced the impact of Kung Fu stars such as Jackie Chan, let alone the "preaching" of "The Matrix" and "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon". This fighting style is undoubtedly a new one for North American audiences. Very fresh and impactful.

Even veteran film critics like Kenneth Turan, who has read countless films, are no exception——

"This action scene is very creative!"

Kenneth Turan feels Charlotte has improved again,

"Although this fight was short, it was definitely groundbreaking!"

However, after seeing the subsequent plot, Mr. Film Critic temporarily forgot about the action scenes——

The turning point of the story has finally arrived!

After defeating the demon Balthazar, Constantine finally obtained the required information by threatening to send him "to heaven (for real)" -

It turns out that, as revealed in the previous plot of the movie, Manmeng, the son of Satan, wants to come to the world, but this requires the support of the blood of God, that is -

"Lance of Longinus!"

Seeing this, Kenneth Turan finally connected all his previous guesses.

Undoubtedly, the boy in red who flashed many times in the previous movies was holding the Gun of Longinus.

The gun was the weapon used to kill Jesus and was stained with His blood. And Jesus is the Son of God—

"So the Spear of Longinus can help the demon Menmen come to people's homes, but where will the boy in red send this holy spear?"

Kenneth Turan's questions were quickly answered.

In the movie, after defeating Balthazar, Constantine realized something was wrong and hurried away with Angela, but Angela was suddenly pulled away by a mysterious force.

Constantine didn't even have time to react.

He didn't know where Angela was taken.

With no other choice, he had no choice but to rush to Midnight Dad's bar again and ask to borrow the chair that allowed people to go back in time to look for clues.

Moreover, in this excitement, he directly used the threat of force.

Feeling offended, Father Midnight rejected him again, and used voodoo to quickly subdue Constantine, who was in a state of excitement and was ill-prepared.

However, after Constantine revealed that Mammon was about to come to his home, and that Biman, Fat Father, and all his and Father Midnight's mutual friends were dead, Father Midnight was shaken.

He finally lent the chair to Constantine.

*******

Watching the movie, where Constantine was sitting on the electric chair that had electrocuted 200 prisoners, looking back in time, Diana also fully understood the ins and outs of the story——

It turns out that if the demon Menmen wants to come to people, he not only needs the blood of Jesus left on Longinus's gun, but

What is even more needed is a spiritual medium with powerful talent as a carrier for the coming.

He focused on Isabel, who was born with yin and yang eyes.

And Isabel also discovered this, so she finally chose to commit suicide.

——Even if this will cause her soul to fall into hell, it can prevent her from being used by the demon Manmeng.

However, Demon Manmeng has another choice -

Isabel's sister Angela!

Angela was also born with yin and yang eyes, and was even more gifted than her sister Isabel.

However, she had always chosen to close her abilities before, leaving the demons helpless.

However, in order to find out the truth behind her sister Isabel's suicide, she gradually opened up her long-sealed ability with the help of Constantine...

"So, it was precisely because of this that Angela gradually met the conditions required by the demon Manmeng, and was finally captured?"

As a comic book fan who has read the original "Constantine", Leonard clearly felt the "malice of the world" coming from the director and screenwriter.

——Of course, this can also be said to be another time when Constantine cheated his teammates with his strength.

In fact, this situation has happened more than once in the comics——

Constantine's impatient character, lack of principles, and unscrupulous style of doing things destined him to easily encounter such things.

It can be said that after watching it so far, this "Hell Detective" is very Constantine!

Even if Leonard doesn't like Keanu Reeves very much, he has to admit that the other party's degree of restoration is indeed very high.

However, based on this level of restoration, what will the subsequent final battle look like?

Leonard couldn't help but be curious.

***********

Equally curious was Joseph Gordon-Levitt, who was still huddled in the corner of the movie theater.

As the actor who plays Chas in the movie, although he has not seen the final film, through the script, he still roughly understands that the next decisive battle with the demons will be where his character Chas will be in the entire movie. , a rare highlight moment.

This time, he's no longer just responsible for the gags and comedy.

He helped Constantine prepare weapons and figured out how to use holy water to greatly weaken the demons.

This earned him recognition from Constantine and Father Midnight——

"Take him! Then kill him!"

Although Father Midnight's admission was a bit strange, it still gave Chas the opportunity to fight alongside them.

Even Father Midnight prepared a prayer ceremony with voodoo characteristics, hoping to bring them good luck.

But Constantine scoffed.

In short, Father Midnight, who originally strictly maintained neutrality, finally went to the battlefield with them——

It was a building full of demons, and Constantine finally found it by going back in time through the chair.
