Constantine: City of Demons

This was some of if not THE best work ive seen in a literal decade from DC animation. Its made for the growing audience which is has to start recognising. many of us are in our 20's even 30's now and we still love watching the old justice league and batman series and all the films. But to grow with your audience is so important to keep the brand really alive. Produce adult content in animation next to content made for kids. You can do both and this little series proves it 100%

This was great but a little disappointing. Each "episode" is barely six minutes long and it ends without any kind of resolution or a cliffhanger. It just stops, abruptly right as the plot is starting to unfold. As a huge Constantine fan I feel it was a little half assed. Maybe they will make more and pick this back up.

As for the animation and voice acting and judging the mere content, it's great. Still worth a watch even though it can be done in one sitting.

Loved it! I do wish the series had of had more interest from the public. Cause I liked it. Constantine is a great character. Be good if he and the team got more air time and better time slots!

I really enjoyed the movie! It kept me engaged the entire time and wanting more!

I knew that DC had plans to take this series of shorts and combine it into a cohesive story with a bit more added on after episode 6. As it stood, I thought the shorts were good by themselves and adding another 20 or 30 minutes to the end to wrap things up and make a pretty good solo Constantine animated series/film.

What I didn't expect was for DC to add a full HOUR in material as a follow-up to the shorts, and boy was the wait for this worth it.

I've always liked Constantine as a character and thought Matt Ryan was an excellent choice to embody the character. The one thing that always bothered me is up to this point we haven't gotten a truly good Constantine story. The short-lived live-show was good but it was hindered creatively by the fact that it was on network TV so they couldn't truly go dark with it. The animated film Justice League Dark did better, but because it was a team movie obviously each character needed their own time in the spotlight.

City of Demons is exactly the kind of story needed for John Constantine. It's dark and bloody as hell and doesn't pull a lot of punches with the visuals and story. It's also pretty damn heartbreaking too, but I'm not going to spoil that part because it really does need to be experienced fresh without any idea it's even coming. I really, REALLY hope DC does more of Constantine like this because damn did I need it after the Batman & Harley Quinn and Batman Ninja debacle.

I can't tell you how happy I am they took these six shorts and exploded it into a really good hour and a half film. Other than one specific point where they added on some footage to one of the original shorts that ended up transitioning pretty badly, if you're a DC fan and especially if you're a Constantine/Hellblazer fan, I'd say you're going to enjoy this.
