Continuity mistake: In the scene where John commits suicide by slitting his wrist, the soles of his shoes go from brand new and unmarked (quite clearly seen in a couple of close up shots) to scuffed and worn (also seen quite well in a couple of shots). (01:34:25)

Mad Ade

Continuity mistake: In the end when Constantine slits his wrists there is a shot where you see the pools of blood from his wrists. The scene changes for a few minutes and there is another shot where the blood is visible and the pools are smaller than before. If anything they should have been bigger. (01:35:20 - 01:40:50)

Continuity mistake: Near the end when Constantine is on the floor with Gabriel on top of him. There is a shot from the side rotated by 90 degrees so they appear to be upright. There are several things on both Gabriel wrists which look like hospital ID tags. One of them on her left side has slipped down her wrist on to her hand. The shot switches to looking over Gabriel's shoulder and the tag is now back on her wrist and the writing has rotated. Switch back to a side shot and it's back to the original position. (01:35:50)

Continuity mistake: Near the end, after he slits his wrists, Constantine grabs a cigarette from his pack and places it on his left side. Later, when Lucifer is done with Gabriel and walks back to Constantine his pack of cigarettes is suddenly on his right side and far away from the puddle of blood. When Lucifer wants to grab Constantine's hand the pack of cigarettes is still on his right side but closer and almost in the puddle of blood. And finally, when Lucifer is dragging Constantine away the pack of cigarettes is gone. (01:40:50 - 01:42:20)

John Constantine: When I was a kid, I could see things. Things humans aren't supposed to see. Things you shouldn't have to see. My parents were normal. They did what most people would do. They made it worse. You think you're crazy long enough, you find a way out.
Angela Dodson: You tried to kill yourself.
John Constantine: I didn't "try" anything.

More trivia for Constantine

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.
