Factual error: When Angela is watching the security video on her laptop of her sister committing suicide, you can see she's playing it using Quicktime. She rewinds a couple of seconds by clicking on the first button of the video player. Actually, when you click this button, it takes you to the beginning of the video. The second button would have rewound it a short time. (00:25:20)
Constantine (2005)
Ending / spoiler
Directed by: Francis Lawrence
Starring: Keanu Reeves, Rachel Weisz, Shia LaBeouf, Djimon Hounsou
The angel Gabriel is helping Mammon, the devil's son, cross over from hell into our plane (earth), to punish all humans... but just before she does so, Constantine slits his wrists to commit suicide and the devil Lucifer comes to take his soul back to hell. Lucifer then stops Gabriel from helping Mammon cross over, and takes Mammon back to hell.Constantine sacrifices himself to take the place of Angela's sister, who really committed suicide and is now in hell, so she can go to heaven. Because of this sacrifice, Constatine is about to go to heaven, but Lucifer heals his ailing lungs (from chain smoking) and Constantine lives again. Gabriel loses her wings, and becomes human herself.Staying after the credits reveals that Chaz (who is killed by Gabriel) has become an angelic half-breed.

More mistakes in Constantine
John Constantine: So when a half-breed breaks the rules, I deport their sorry ass straight back to hell. I don't get them all but...I'm hoping to get enough to insure my retirement.
Angela Dodson: I don't understand.
John Constantine: I'm a suicide, Angela. When I die the rules say I got just one place to go.
Angela Dodson: You're trying to buy your way into heaven.
John Constantine: What would you do if you were sentenced to a prison where half the inmates were put there by you?
Trivia: The name of the Mexican guy who found the Spear of Destiny is Manuel. (It's revealed in the opening scene, when his fellow calls after him in Spanish.) Manuel is the Spanish form if Immanuel, the name of the Messiah according to the Book of Isaiah. Occult interpretations of the Bible commonly claim that Immanuel will be the name of Antichrist.
Question: I never fully understood why Constantine disliked 'half-breeds' so much, he called them "hypocritical bullshit." Can someone enlighten me?

Answer: He calls it hypocritical bullshit because half breeds exist in both half-demon and half-angel form, they "whisper thoughts" to us that are both positive and negative suggesting that we will do both positive and negative things, confusing us humans. They call it a balance because there are an equal amount of both good and bad half breeds. However he thinks this is unjust, because they should let us make decisions on our own.
