Anybody else see this one? Good production values couldn't save this CONSTANTINE-type story. Sean Patrick Flanery plays Jake, the half-demon hero trying to stop the evil Asmodeus (played by Billy Drago) from impregnating half the hookers in L.A with his devil seed. The story idea itself was not bad but the acting and script were incredibly immature. I really tried to like this movie and kept watching, hoping that it would find it's footing part way through. There is a headbanging soundtrack to go with that isn't bad music but doesn't really fit in any of the film. The twist ending might have been interesting if you didn't see it coming after the first 10 minutes of the film. The movie might have been more forgivable if the film itself didn't look so polished. There was too much money involved with this one for it to turn out so poorly. I am interested to hear if anyone else walked away with a different opinion.

I saw this movie also and was also pretty disappointed with it. With that much money on a movie you'd think they would be able to do a better job.
