A perfectly reasonable story, but not one of the classics. John turns out to have made a mistake with dire consequences in his past, and now something's out for revenge, as well as killing a number of rich people along the way. There are definitely some good elements in here, with the relationship between John and his father being notable, in a story that's partly about themes of guilt. And the resolution is a decent one, relying on Constantine taking a different approach than usual, while still being entirely consistent with his character. But the ending is rather drawn out and surprisingly upbeat, and while there's plenty of gore (and swearing) it's less dark than one might expect. And I'm not clear why the police detectives are carrying guns... this is supposed to be Liverpool, not New York.
