We, shockingly, have our first GOOD movie this week, and we have the great Matt Lynch (@colonelmortimer, Letterboxd, The Suspense is Killing Us, Scarecrow Video) to cover maybe the only good movie for months in either direction: Keanu Reeves in "CONSTANTINE". We discuss its tangled backstory of its creation, striking performances from actors expected (Keanu, Tilda Swinton, Peter Stormare) and more unexpected (Gavin Rossdale?!), its incredibly enduring special effects, the reasoning behind its day-of critical pans and the even more tangled attempts at a sequel, as its reputation has only grown in the decades since.
