The Crow aged like wine,it’s great.And I’m here for it.
Disagree with you, Ken. I was a bit older than you and I saw it in theaters. Still love this film.
The hot dog and onion thing has it's purpose...it informs us that Albrecht and Sarah has become a close friend after the tragedy... And it was like a surrogate father and his little girl...it was cute and heart warming.
Exactly it wasn't really a joke or to be funny cause its not its banter to show their are far from strangers like it started.
Brandon Lee the man, the myth, the legend. RIP Brandon Lee. His last film he tragically died on set of this movie. Anyone who thinks this movie is boring must think all movies need to have the action of a Rambo movie to keep their attention. I was in my mid teens when this movie came out and I enjoyed the movie and the soundtrack too.
One of my all time favorite movies and I think the villains in this movie are some of the best parts.
The villains are terrifying and disgusting AND definitely unforgettable.
You're not wrong. There is a real Fandom for this movie. I sold a Crow blanket for 90 bucks within a few hours of listing it. I was shocked.
Showdown in little Tokyo. Need 4k
I will forever love this movie. And this movie will forever break my heart, because it took Brandon Lee from us.
Agreed. Hopefully he's felt the energy from those of us who he touched the entire time.
I find it crazy that father and son Lee both died at the height of their fame and while they filmed what some would say, their magnum opus.
Sounds a bit nitpicky to me. I think it’s lazy using the 90’s as a negative against the film, of course it’s gonna be 90’s the film was pretty much built around the music and culture of the time which is it’s biggest positive and considering the cinematic slop we’ve had in the past decade makes me appreciate films such as The Crow a lot more
Just gave my opinion. Take it or leave it. The culture and music of the time can’t make up for bad writing, sloppy storytelling, and poor editing. The cool factor rules here and that’s the best thing about this movie to me.
@midlevelmedia yeah Friday the 13th is great lol
@@midlevelmedia To be fair, some of the bad edits were probably down to Brandon dying during production and the studio rushing reshoots to get it released quickly. I recognize that the movie has its faults - as most movies do - but I love it. I confess to still seeing the scenes you think of as corny as still cool. Maybe that says something about my maturity level, ha ha. Proyas' Dark City is also one of my favorite science fiction movies, one that's never got the attention it deserves, in my opinion. I think a lot of great older movies will be increasingly overlooked over time, not just because of the obvious fact that they're old, but because younger audiences today, who tend to like crap, are downvoting and scoring low all our old favorites in all the places that people go to now to look for recommendations, resulting in them falling increasingly out of favor with the general public. (Not including you in that group, by the way, and not even necessarily including The Crow or Dark City among "great" movies, just making the general observation while it's on my mind.)
How is it lazy to say the 90’s is a negative. Because most 90’s movies were bad. It seems like you’re just stuck in the 90’s and don’t want your someone to have an opinion
@@supertrexandroidx I definitely thought about that. I’m sure it wasn’t easy to cut together scenes after Brandon’s passing. It’s probably the reason why we didn’t get a lot to establish the relationship between him and his girl in the beginning. Could have used that honestly.
Can't wait to get my steelbook!!
My very first CD was this movies soundtrack and I still have it
Sounds GREAT for thr HUGE Crow fans. It's perfection for its age and Brandon Lee is forever om our hearts. I'm biased massively as it's my favourite movie of all time.
Great movie, Great Soundtrack
Of course you are entitled to your opinion. But I strongly disagree.
agreed!
You are entitled to that.
I love your channel but I have to disagree this is a perfect film
A perfect film? Maybe to you. Doesn't make him wrong. It is his review based on his opinion.
@@scaps2200 I said I disagree not that he was or is wrong you nutter as if you are commenting on someone’s comment on RUclips get a life a can’t even believe am writing this lol
Agreed. It is absolutely perfect.
Sting the wrestler, is pointing his bat at you, Ken. 😂 He might getcha with that Scorpion Death Drop move.
prices can't be high all the time......(wait, yes they can)
It can’t rain all the time.
😂
This film to me is one of the greatest action films ever made, and definitely in my top 10, if not top 5, favorite films of all time. All the sequels were crappy remakes, and the newest one is a joke. Brandon Lee was born for this role and this character belongs to only him. Lightening in a bottle with this one, at least in my opinion. Not a mess in the LEAST. I pre-ordered from DiabolikDVD and cant wait to see it again.
Crow 2 is awesome. Unfortunately people were never able to accept it due to not having Brandon. But the performances are excellent, especially iggy pop, the direction is bolder, uniquely dynamic, the colors vibrant. Sure the plot is similar, but it should be. The original seems drab in comparison, although top dollar is definitely a better villain.
@@reginaldforthright805 out of all the sequels, City of Angels is definitely the best, but it's FAR behind the quality of the original. Just slogged too much and despite its positives, like a very good atmosphere and performances, the script I felt definitely needed to be more exciting and intriguing.
The action was very well done in the movie. I give it credit for that.
@@metalgrinch Respectfully, I have zero desire to rewatch any of the sequels. All other considerations aside, none of the actors looked as good as Brandon in the role or could actually fight. Brandon was a legit martial artist and I think it simply made him more watchable in the role, whereas the other guys were kind of like watching a second rate Kevin Sorbo doing action.
You don’t find Michael Wincott menacing in The Crow?! Wow, that’s…an opinion.
He's not, he just has a cool voice. His right hand man is the scary one.
@@nicodimus2222 Tony Todd? Nah, Wincott as Top Dollar is menacing as hell, his encounter with Gideon is a perfect example, his role is legendary
that’s not Tony Todd, it’s the same actor from Hackers
@@blackphilipalvarez1305Actually it was Tony Todd. They're talking about Grange, the guy with glasses, not Tin Tin.
Masterpiece! You kinda hurt my feelings....but each to their own
I do not look to hurt anyone’s feelings. Just giving my thoughts.
Call me crazy but I like the slip cover the best I pre ordered it on Amazon .
🤪 " CRAZY "
😂😂😂😂😂@@iansteventon4221
Slip cover > steel book imo
As a wrestling fan, this movie is epic because it is great as a movie, and it inspired the most iconic wrestler of all-time that transcended WWF/E, WCW, and in all wresting, Sting.
You say it's silly and you like reddy kruger and friday the 13th lol
He didn't say the movie was silly. Calm down. He said some of the dialog seemed silly. Two different things.
Freddy’s Dead > The Crow
I could see that the crow is a bit emo, whereas the other films have no pretensions of being anything other than simple thrillers.
@@midlevelmedia oh no! Now your causing trouble Ken.
@midlevelmedia bro are you nuts?
Blind bought the Steelbook. Very Excited!
I got my 4k special edition through today here in the UK I love this film it's one of my all time favourites.
Such a gorgeous steelbook for a great movie!
I love this film. Total classic. Just ordered my steel book. 😁
😱 from where?!
@Beetleejuicee ebay. I'm in the UK. It was £40. So, about a tenner more than Amazon had advertised it at. But I thought I'd better get it now before the price goes up further.
Bro this is the best I've ever seen the crow it's amazing the transfer is amazing
I saw the crow. 4 times in movie theater one. During my birthday
Awesome! I can't wait to get mine
I think it’s goofiness and corny bits are apart of its charm. It’s a reason why I like it. As a teen that was into metal and punk, watching this movie when it came out, it was fun to make fun of those cheesy parts. We also quoted stuff like, “it can’t rain all the time”, but at the same time we also loved brandon lee and the action was incredible.
Now im wanting a definitive version of rapid fire and I’ll be set.
Time to update my VHS!😀🙌
It’s a great movie.
Can't wait to get it!
I've got the exclusive steelbook in the post, hopefully arrive tomorrow. I bet it looks great in 4K.
My copy will be at my house when I get home from my work travel this week. I think I’ve only seen this film once when I was young so I’m so excited to watch with mostly fresh eyes and perspective.
I’m going to do a side by side to bluray comparison too just because I want to…
Appreciate hearing your thoughts on this bother…
Great review Ken! Loved the film. I want that steelbook but I may settle for the slipcover
Thanks AJ man! I feel like the steel will come back. Just be patient
I got the exact same steelbook from my local physical media store right after I got off work.
I love watching it in October. It’s not perfect, but definitely worth owning.
Stone Temple Pilots, nine inch nails, rage against the machine, Pantera, Violent Femmes… What’s not to love?
Appreciate your honest opinion though.
I love this film.
How can you not like The Crow Kenny? I'm blaming your car accident you might have a head injury. 😆 Orbit has a shipment of the UK steelbooks coming in soon. It looks exactly the same as the one you have. They are not up for preorder it will be first come first served.
Dude I literally started it 3 hours after the accident. Could have been it. 😂
My steelbook ( other edition) will be here tomorrow. In uk we get the 1080p blu ray with the set , but we don't EVER get a digital code. You say it's cheap enough? ? Mines was $41.50 ( £33) still a bit pricey. Looking forward to seeing it, not seen it since VHS 📼
You’re right about its unique style and proyas is a legend, but I totally disagree with you that the movie has not aged well this is the look of the film. It’s always had that edgy gritty look to it and that was a chosen look. And again it’s not a perfect film in terms of the way that it flows but yes, it definitely is a lot like a music video and it’s still beautiful to watch the scene in the bar is one of the most expertly shot action scenes ever put on film.
My favorite movie 🎬. I'm glad I ordered mine fron Amazon. I can't wait till it comes in
Snagged the last copy today at Walmart. Stooooked 🤘🏻
I can’t wait to receive my copy for this movie at least you got it early Kenny lol 😂 bro 😎 and I’m still looking forward to the remake too lol 😆 but there just me though
Great film. Can’t wait to get the steelbook
Gutted i waited to buy this steelbook its sold out now as you said but i did buy the abyss true lies and aliens on 4k so had to wait great vid pal
Love this film. So glad the 4k transfer was fine right 😅👍
Damn you are looking cool dude. Love the new look.
Big fan of you keeping it real. Being an 80s kid, the vibe captured was a real thing. Dark. Only disappointment is heading no DOLBY ATMOS. Misses opportunity. Cheers MLM!
Got mine today
Getting my copy next week
I love this movie . i gotta get the 4k now.
Definitely can't wait to buy this supernatural The Crow on 4k Ultra HD Steelbook 👊👊📽
Hi. I was looking for Steele book or the crow earlier and they are out of stock for awhile on Amazon. Because I was looking for. Double disc in Blu ray or with3 disc
I got the main steelbook but I'm still haunting the walmart website for when ( if ) they restock their exclusive one.
You don't hate Steelbooks when they send you free ones, do you?
Ohhh John you really got me there. Comment Section - 1 / Mid Level Media - 0
Why you sound so sad John?
Not that I think Ken was hating on them, but seriously, what is with all the anti-steelbook vitriol lately? I completely get people not thinking them worth the extra cost and not feeling like they need them, and sure, every once in a while we might get a steelbook only release (although usually only shortly before a regular release) and okay, again, in those cases some want the movie NOW and don't want to pay extra for it - but recently it seems almost like a fad for people to dislike them simply because they exist, lol. Are some of these people just hating the medium itself, the packaging? Because personally I'd rather have a nice sturdy steelbook any day over one of Sony's latest cheap plastic case releases.
@@supertrexandroidx I like steelbooks just fine. I was just giving Ken a hard time because recently he went on and on in several videos that he hats steelbooks now, yet he turns around and goes hunting for them in one video, and he reviews one here in this video. I think hes conflicted.
@@Youfailedatlife I'm actually really happy! I was just giving Ken a hard time because he recently said he hated steelbooks.
I have loved this film ever since I first saw it in the cinema way back in the day. It would be nice to get a Dolby Atmos upgrade however I'm pleased that the PQ is nailed and that is the main thing. Mine is in the post and now I just have to wait patiently for it to make it's way here to Australia and I look forward to revisiting in glorious 4k.
Can’t wait to receive it!
love your t-shirt
Could you make a video about steelbooks vs normal 4K editions, there’s no information out there I’m still can’t get the information I’m looking for. Is it just the packaging or is it another better recording from the master film?
Same exact disc. Just different packaging
The film is a masterpiece, i saw this in 94 on vhs release. I’ve had all sorts of memorabilia over the years and it’s in my top five of all time.
I went for the Uk zavvi SB as the one you have Ken looks like he has Angel wings when the case is off. The transfer however is one of the worst in a while HDR seems non existent here. No improvement over the blue ray.
What? The crow is one of my favourite movies, how can you say that, i think its aged perfectly.it captures the 1990s grunge, gothic exceptionally well. the thing that i will criticise, is the scenes cut down in places. With the complete omission of the skull cowboy. Lots of other incidental stuff too. Especially the shootout sequence. It has a genuinely haunting feel too. It's like Brandon conveys the character too well for me.
the crow is getting re released for the 30th anniversary ! May 29th and 30th ! back in theaters
I cant wait for this. I've watched it many times. I saw it for the first time with my mom in the theater when I was 15.
The humor interspersed in the movie, shows they were still hopeful living in a crappy place. This is home, and its what theyre used to, even if its often dark and dreary, with lots of corruptiont"It cant rain all the time". Its similar to people living in Gotham. At some point you would become numb to the depressing parts and find the good things to keep you going. The villain isnt as menacing as he is inevitable. Hes a Thanos. He has so much power that hes untouchable. And thats why a supernatural force is necessary to overcome him and bring justice to the city.
Wow did not know Brandon lee died during this movie on the movie set and his father Bruce lee also died on a movie set…. Someone wanted his blood line ended. Very creepy and interests me more to see this now. Also want to see Dark Blood with River Phoenix
Bruce Lee did not die in a movie set but arrived dead in the ambulance at the hospital. The official version is he was at this house with a woman and he complained about a headache so the woman gave him some analgesic and he lied down. But the headache got worse so they called an ambulance. But he arrived dead at the hospital. At the beginning doctors thought that the analgesic that he took gave him an allergic reaction. But the autopsy revealed he had a brain aneurysm that bursted and that was his headache. When Lee died he made headlines around the world in every media.🙏
How do you not know Brandon Lee died making the movie? That’s what the movie is known for, it’s even dedicated to him?
I have the crow 1 disc double disc now I'm looking for a update with blu ray steel book with extra stuff probably scenes. That didn't make it in film including trailers. Making of the crow maybe tv Verson to with. The crow stairway to heaven some of it also
After hearing how much Ken loved the crow 😉 can't wait hear his review of the crow remake
I probably won’t bother. Lol
Oh I’m m exacted for the remake
@@YoufailedatlifeWhy? It looks like dogshit.🤢
Kenny this movie is good u can’t get enjoyable movies like that in today cinema and new crow is too much towards John wick style film and new guy is a great actor that will turn out to be like nightmare of elm sr mistake.
Ken I love you're channel man but hearing you say it's ok not the best kind of disappoints me man but you're just saying how you feel So I get it I want the Crow on 4k. I'm going to see the new Crow movie but I'm not looking forward to it
It’s being rereleased in the cinemas so imma hold off on my first watch
CROW with the Gothic feeling reminds me of Batman...
That being said,
I wish Brandon Lee would OF LIVED...
So he could have made a TRILOGY,
of BATMAN moves...
Good review, disagree. The original is a classic, the sequels have diminishing returns. We would say, the tv show is a great show as an adaptation of which... shameless plus, we are covering on our podcast this month.
Love that show! Gonna have to check that out!
It was filmed in my state of nc
I think The Underworld movies, got its atmospheric style from The Crow. And I also think The console games BloodRayne 1 & 2 and it's films, Which are all great. DTS-HD systems these days deal with it through DTS-HD neutral x which does do hight sounds close to DTSX, as my soundbar does both and Atmos.
This is the perfect horror comedy
The TV movie and show and salvation are the ones that I will always say are better but I enjoy the whole series
I agree, just watched this movie for the first time, and it does indeed seem a bit silly, it's like a B movie! The fast editting feels so amateurish, and the story itself is so damn basic, with no depth to anybody's character bar Brandon Lee's. Glad I watched it, but not one I'll be picking up as cannot see myself ever wanting to watch this again...
Well Ken, you obviously have terrible taste in movies!
Crow is an awesome movie. Cult classic!
Yea Warner Brothers giving us a special feature and not including a Bluray 😂😂 what a joke that company is 🚯
This is better than most of the garbage that is churned out of the M she U
But it’s not better than most of the movies of the year it came out. I’m not comparing it to modern films by saying it feels 90s. I love 90s films, but some age better than others.
@@midlevelmedia I agree. This is a genre film, I view it in terms of comic book film. For me it is in the top ten of comic book movies. I'm looking forward to this remaster.
Weak villain?? After hearing that i got a Tinnitus.
Everyone is entitled to their opinion but you sound very nitpicky, this film is beautiful and tragic and I think the crow is better than anything that Marvel or DC will ever release and that is down to the story and the emotions along with the amazing performance of Brandon Lee. Maybe that's what you're missing from your review
It really sucks that Brandon Lee died making it. When I was a kid, I thought that part where he's skewered on that pointy fence post thing was his real life death. I think older kids/teens were spreading that bs around.
What an reviewer..goes arourd and around using same thoughts again and again making it longer and only a negative thoughts about the great movie. Ignore everything he says because movie is great! Send it back to paramount if you feel so much goofy.
Paramount >>> James Cameron
LOL
When it comes to 4Ks--who isn't? ^^
Anddddd this aged like milk since Paramount DNRd Once Upon A Time In The West literally a week later.
We all have a opinions but wow, some of yours are pretty strange on your videos
I’m sure if you documented all of your movie opinions on RUclips, they would come off as very strange as well. Why? Cause we’re all different and enjoy entertainment differently.
Where is the director's cut? So much extra footage that should be restored to the film.
We’re lucky to get the version released today honestly, not every film has a director cut.
@@blackphilipalvarez1305 One could only hope...
Does this still have the terrible Gideon hand stab edit in it?
I would rather watch this than watch what Hollywood puts out today. Over blown budgets with no story.
Thanks for the review. The Crow just does not hit the same way as an adult. It comes off as kind of corny and has not aged well. Also, watching movies that give you a dark feeling are not a good thing.
The Crow movie, like the comic book, has really great visuals. In terms of style, dialogue, and themes, it is not very good.
Still, I would love to look at it in 4k, but I do not have a 4k player.
Hits the same way for and my wife!🤷♂️ Guess it depends on the individual.
Agreed that scene with hot dogs & farting always made me cringe. Always wish they took that stupid scene out. Aside from that always loved this movie.
I thought The Crow was overrated as a kid. It's worth watching/owning for sure, but it's not a favorite. I'm waiting for it to hit around $10 before I get it.
The only thing they should have done is digitally erase the wire that is seen when one of the bad guys falls in the meeting/massacre scene. Too much grain, strange color at times and even vertical stripes in a few shots on one corner of the frame. An overrated botched transfer.
It's OK movie...I agree.
Now I wait for sale!
Omg! Watch the special features before you review them. The main new featurette is with the production designer, no the producer.
I watched them. Just couldn’t remember exactly what their role was. I’m sure they were also a producer in some capacity.
Just an ok movie when you’re an adult now, that makes no sense to me. Definitely a little nitpicky here. I’ve been waiting for this movie in 4K because the blu ray was awful. Yes even as an adult now this movie will always hold a special place in my heart. I practically wore out the soundtrack when I had it on tape. Again I’m just glad it’s finally in 4K and can’t wait to watch it again.
Some movies age better than others from that time. Just my opinion though. 🤷♂️
