The Crow: City of Angels never quite becomes the all-out disaster one might’ve rightfully anticipated...

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Mar 25, 2025

Visually, it’s still a stunning film, the soundtrack still rules, but the acting and cgi are not on point and they hurt the film as a whole.

| Original Score: 7/10 | Sep 21, 2023

It's a story that never takes flight, while the constant "cawing" of an actual crow in nearly every scene only adds to the irritating experience.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Nov 16, 2022

The most important thing you need to know about City of Angels is that it's the exact same movie as The Crow.

A major portion of the film is reiteration, predominantly through repetitive flashbacks, which stretch out the overly simplistic revenge plot.

| Original Score: 2/10 | Sep 11, 2020

Even for teens hooked on the grandiloquence of death-metal masochism, the movie may seem closer to an endless Sunday in church.

Memo to Edward R. Pressman: Gloomy Goth teens like the Romeo and Juliet stuff, not parental devotion from beyond the grave.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | May 3, 2007

Stunningly awful.

Although the setting has moved from Detroit to LA, the stylised urban wasteland, morbid atmosphere and basic plot remain the same.

I highly recommend watching the original, instead of this dud.

Vincent Perez is game, but he--nor anyone involved in this sloppy production--can erase the fond memories of the late Brandon Lee.

Worst of the Crow franchise, which should have ended with Brandon Lee and the entertaining first film.
