The devil was ok, devils advocate was better i thought, this guy seemed a bit overweight, and i didn't like the demons either, they looked strange, and inefficent. They seemed more alien than demonic. Good story though, and great special effects, i'd buy it on dvd.

Yeah, was that angle intended to have vague sexuality? I remember the actor being in a movie called "orlando" in which she was a male, then she transformed into a female, and preceded to live for over 400 years because she felt like it, perhaps that's why they choose her for this role. The name "Gabriel" is vague too.

Look at Timber's post for Gabriel's motivations.

Yes, I think Gabriel was supposed to be close to genderless.

I just saw this film and I must say that I was pretty impressed, even though I'm not religious. The film had quite a few moments, where some pretty subtle humour showed through like:
s
p
o
i
l
e
r
when Satan sent Constantine back to life to be able to go to Hell afterwards, or the finger at Satan.

The special effects were also very good, basically this is a film, which merits to be brought on DVD by me. [img]smile.gif[/img]
