Do yourself a favour and give the movie a whirl. I’m in the minority but as a long time fan of Hellblazer (original run of 300! comics) I was happy with the movie, thought it was adequately close to the material (for a movie, how can you fit the scope of the source material into 1.5 hours…) and a good old romp overall.
The TV show was excellent, quite close in look and feel and Matt Ryan nailed it (also his characterization in Legends but the writing there was lesser for the character, even though I enjoy Legends for their goofy, campy fun, Constantine wasn’t a good fit), totally want some more.
