CONSTANTINE

Showtimes for Feb19th Sat at East side Warren:(12:45), (1:45), (4:00), (5:00), 7:00, 8:00, 10:10


SYNOPSIS:stolen from www.rottentomatoes.com

John Constantine has been to hell and back.

Born with a gift he didn't want, the ability to clearly recognize the half-breed angels and demons that walk the earth in human skin, Constantine (KEANU REEVES) was driven to take his own life to escape the tormenting clarity of his vision. But he failed. Resuscitated against his will, he found himself cast back into the land of the living. Now, marked as an attempted suicide with a temporary lease on life, he patrols the earthly border between heaven and hell, hoping in vain to earn his way to salvation by sending the devil's foot soldiers back to the depths.

But Constantine is no saint. Disillusioned by the world around him and at odds with the one beyond, he's a hard-drinking, hard-living bitter hero who scorns the very idea of heroism. Constantine will fight to save your soul but he doesn't want your admiration or your thanks – and certainly not your sympathy. -- © Warner Bros.


I have to work tonight. (I'm back waitressing at Flashbacks for those who haven't heard.) But I seriously NEED to watch this flick. I'm hoping someone will offer to take me.



Comments:
Was it any good? We are going to the 10:10p show. Either way, I'm drinking so if it's bad I'll probably be too drunk to notice anyway.
 
BTW, they use some Tagalog in the opening exorcism scene in Constantine.. I'm not sure if I'm the only one who noticed it.. But usually when the possessed character screams out gibberish you can't understand it.. This time, they had the possessed girl say "Papatayin natin siya!" I busted up laughing!! I can't believe they actually squeezed some Tagalog in there. I think that one of the people who worked on the film was Fipino. I don't think I was imagining it. I'm positive that's what she said!
 
for those of us that arent filipino maybe you should tell us what papatayin natinsiya means.? does it mean pop a cap in yo bitch ass?
 
Papatayin natin siya. - We will kill him/her.

And yes it is what she said. Jason tried to tell me in the beginning while my eyes were closed and I was surprised myself. But not surprising most Filipinas are possessed some would say.
