Gloomy, chain-smoking detective John Constantine (Keanu Reeves) has literally been to Hell and back, an experience that comes in handy in this film adaptation of the DC comic, Hellblazer (a thematic first cousin to the superior Hell Boy.) Young composer Brian Tyler, whose work showed such inventive promise in the miniseries Children of Dune, weaves a moody orchestral tapestry dotted with occasional flashes of the gripping post-modernism Don Davis used to such good effect in the Matrix series. But the "collaborations" of Hans Zimmer protégé Klaus Badelt seem like demographically driven, last-minute studio tinkering, jolting Tyler's subtle, often haunting soundscape with brash doses of intrusive metal, club beats and McAction film thunder. Tyler occasionally evokes the emotive, longing spirit of John Barry's classic arrangements, cues that are almost evocative enough to elevate the project above its unfortunate soundtrack-by-committee fate. --Jerry McCulley
