Fire it up! Fire it up! Fire it up!


I always say “it can’t rain all the time” and my family thinks I’m nuts.

The Crow is pretty great. It’s a little dark for my taste generally, but it just works. Maybe that’s due to Lee or the tight story, who knows. But it works well. One of the better revenge flicks of that era for sure. And it still holds up really well.



ETA: and that stripper story is awesome. I’d have definitely hit her with a “can’t rain all the time” reference in that situation.

Same, I caught it on TV about a year ago, hadn’t seen it in almost 20 years and I was surprised at how well it held up. The sets were great, the CGI held up because of the dim lighting except for when Funboy shoots him through the hand. The writing is solid, action scenes and stunts are very good and the cast was incredible. Are there any bad characters or performances? Lee was very good, Wincott was brilliant, Bai Ling was perfect in her role, Todd was imposing, Earnie Hudson was great, David Patrick Kelly and the rest of his crew were very good, one of Masons first movies and he was great. Anna Thompson and Jon Polito were also very good. Really there isn’t any faults in the movie. Sure the concept and genre might not be for everyone but the Film itself is top notch.
