        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. All he wants is a reprieve. When a
        desperate but skeptical police detective (RACHEL WEISZ)
        enlists his help in solving the mysterious death of her
        beloved twin sister (also played by Weisz), their
        investigation takes them through the world of demons and
        angels that exists just beneath the landscape of contemporary
        LA. Caught in a catastrophic series of otherworldly events,
        the two become inextricably involved and seek to find their
        own peace at whatever cost.
