Likes : Cant really say must as to if this series will take off but so far for the pilot episode it has started off pretty strong as you get to see based character & a future plot emerge but doesn't give away to much. Allot of people would try to compare this to supernatural but this is a different storyline concept & also a different story line for the film version itself.
This is a series based of the Constantine hell blazer novels which has been reboot for the TV series, which is not bad, the series seem to have been put allot effort into as it doesn't look cheaply made, the acting to brilliant, along with the special effects of the demonic entity & the horror feel.
The story base line inst to bad Iver as we get a character of Constantine played Matt Ryan that come across simply as sarcastic & arrogant at time but you can see why he like this as his past is covered in regret for a job that he failed to protect someone.
The writers were clever about how they can't show Constantine smoking on camera. Instead, you'll see him idly toying with a lighter and putting out cigarettes that he would have just finished. It's network television that clearly doesn't want to promote smoking in their series. They didn't stray from the horror and the occult, either as the horror content & ritual signs are present so in some way yes this is similar to supernatural. Finally, the season at a glance trailer that played at the end offered much more promise to this series so hopefully this series work out. Fans of the comics will recognise some nods here and there, as well.
Dislikes : At the moment its only the first pilot episode so cant really say if anything s wrong .
Overall : Great strong start to a series, showing demonic creatures & entitys great acting, a series not cheaply done.
Rating: 4.7 out of 5 for entertainment / 8.8 out of 10 for storyline / pilot episode.
