Customer Rating:      Summary: R.I.P. Brandon Lee Comment: This is such a great movie. It has the look of Batman and Batman Returns, and has the feel of all the gothic literature/films that have been seen. Brandon Lee's (sadly) final performance is a treat: he is the one and only "Eric Draven", and all the others are just copycats of him. Pacing and direction of this film is compelling, while the wicked art direction stands out. Action sequences are a must-see, and the script is purely well-written. ***** out of *****.
Customer Rating:      Summary: A great DVD!!! A real collector's item!!! Comment: This is one of my all time favorite DVD's and I was so fortunate to find it available on Amazon at an amazing price. It is now safely in my collection where I will watch it over and over again.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Great movie Comment: This was a really good movie. As always, the product from Amazon was excellent
Customer Rating:      Summary: THE BEST CROW EVER Comment: There was the Crow comic book, and there is this movie.
the orignal comic and this movie are by far the best versions of The Crow.
after this movie were several movie and comic sequils, a tv series that remade the story, and a comic series that did the same thing.
NONE of these were in any way interesting.
this IS the BEST version of the Crow. just as the orignal comic is the best of the comics.
the rest is garbage.
there have been other actors cast in the roll and one even playing the same charture of Eric Draven.
frankly I think that is a diservice to the memory of Brandon Lee
to recast his role and have someone else do it.
lee is the ONLY actor who does it well.
and it is not only lee who plays his part so well.
there is
Michael Wincott
who is excelent as the villen, Top Doller, he steals all his sceans.
the fact is becaus of lee's tragic death, on the set of this very movie, some sceans were shot with a stunt double.
and yet Lee is still very much a large part in the movie with several sceans.
this movie is about the dead coming back to life.
and that is very much punchuated by having Lee brought back to life in this movie.
so this movie is the only one that is need for a collention.
the rest are not worth the price of admission.
the story is of Eric Draven who is killed along with his girl friend. some time later Draven is back to take revenge against the muggers who killed him. he faces Top Doller in a final battle and gains peace in the end.
this movie is about reserection, revenge, atonment, and redemption.
again with the movie having lee it is the theme of the dead returning.
one of my favorite sceans is when one of the muggers is about to hurt Draven's girl friend and he quotes from some book about the Devil fearing good, and the mugger only mocks that. he mocks the power of good. but then Draven straps him to his own car with a bomb. and the mugger then sees the 'awful power' of goodness. I rather like that.
this is one of the best movies ever made.
defitly a great 'superhero' movie.
and again.
the best version of the Crow story Ive ever seen.
Customer Rating:      Summary: The Crow DVD Comment: I love this movie and this edition with all of the extras did not disappoint. Great interviews and behind-the-scenes stuff perfectly complement a fantastic movie. I'd recommend this in a heartbeat.
