Oh, I did too. And I like Keanu Reeves, whom I think is far better, generally, than people give him credit for.
I'm just saying that they simplified and normalized the character immensely for the movie; and made him Californian. None of that fits the real, fascinating, John Constantine.
As I recall, Keanu Reeves didn't even wear the trench coat. But maybe I forget. I think I'll watch that again.

Anyway, Castiel is terrific.
