23 – Constantine

Thanksgiving is nearly upon us, and the Why Watch crew is not very thankful for one of their dumber duller movies, 2005's looser-than-your-holiday-dinner-pants adaptation of the DC property Constantine starring Keanu Reeves. Why are Tilda Swinton and Peter Stormare the only magnetic presences? What's a half-breed angel or demon, and how could they exist in the first place if angels or demons can't come to Earth and bone a human? What is the villain's plan exactly and why does it take over an hour to complete? We don't know but we'll also rework this dumb, dumb, dumb movie into something that would actually merit you focusing your eyeballs at it for over two hours.
