10 Movies Where God Intervenes

10. Constantine (2005)

Despite the original not having been all that well received (thanks to some major divergences from the Hellblazer comic book source material), rumours abound of a sequel to Francis Lawrence's Constantine abound. But whether this will come to fruition is anyone's guess. What we do know is that, for everything it failed in, Constantine made up in equal measure.

Sure, Keanu Reeves moody anti-hero John Constantine spends much of the movie moping and trying not to smoke or crack wise, but it all leads up to a mega final showdown, in which the androgynous angel Gabriel (Tilda Swinton) unleashes their master plan to enact their revenge against mankind.

God participates in the final battle at a heck of a distance, but the big guy upstairs' presence is very much felt when Gabriel discovers their divine protection has been rescinded. This means that when Constantine summons Lucifer (Peter Stormare) by slitting his own wrists (as you do), Gabriel cannot smite the unholy one, and suffers the dire consequences of having their wings burned off and made mortal - allowing Constantine to literally box their nose.
