Epic film. Love the line, "Move and your dead!" Draven replies, "I'm dead and yet I move!!"
That whole exchange was great. Brandon made Eric so playful in those moments. "Do you know someone named T-Bird? He had a friend who shouldn't have played with knives. Like the coat?"
Walk in front of a gun.. are you high?
they're all dead, they just don'y know it
I feel like Heath Ledger based some of his performance as Joker on Brandon Lee's performance as Eric Draven. They're similar in that they both died before their most well known films were released and never lived to see them.
I've always found the similarities eerie.
I wanted to point out that Joaquin Phoenix as Joker also looks like Eric Draven with white makeup and blue triangles.
I agree with all of you guys wholeheartedly. The parallels between Lee and Ledger, particularly, is eerie and amazing at the same time.
They were damn near the same age too.
@@CyborgSodaCollects Both 28.
The Crow is an amazing film! I've lost count of how many times I've watched it!!
I watch it every year on Devil's Night.
Same here since I’ve been 9! Kind of a dumb tradition at this point but devils night is my new favourite holiday.
saw The Crow 4 times on theaters, love it.
+BeardedMovieGuy Awesome! Yeah it was a great theater experience.
I thought you meant Wicked Prayer for a second there, you had me worried...
@@DrumdumsMovieReviews my son Jesse loves this film. It's in his top 10 movies of all time
Here's his movies ranked
1. Terminator 2 Judgement Day
2. The Crow
3. Goldeneye
4. The Thing
5. The Matrix
6. Alien
7. Captain America The Winter Soldier
8. Mission Impossible Ghost Protocol
9. Sin City
10. Phantasm
Extra eerie is the fact Brandon Lee and Heath Ledger were both 28 when they died.
Good point!
One of my all time favorite movies!
An Instant Classic!!
Eric Draven is Badass!!!
RIP Brandon Lee.
One of the best film's I have ever seen.
The Crow is one of the best comic book/graphic novels adapted to film. It is a masterpiece of darkness, and sorrow with an incredible soundtrack. Hearing you talk about the film makes me so emotional. I remember the firs time I saw the film, it hit me so hard. It will always hold a very special place in my heart.
it's weird how Brandon Lee died. he was going to get married and it was all taken from Brandon. it's haunting in a way
Haunting is the perfect word for it. It all seems so "off" in a way. I still miss him.
It's creepy how much that mirrors the character of Eric.
It was all due to stupidity, too. They sent the weapons master home to save money, and put the props master in charge of the guns. Apparently, some of the crew had been using them for target practice, and a spent shell casing got lodged in the barrel. A few weeks later, that same gun was loaded with extra powder to produce a flash for the camera, and the combo acted just like a real bullet. Michael Massee was so traumatized by the shooting, that he never watched the film for the rest of his life.
Kinda like the same way Eric Draven dies! He got shot before his wedding
1994 was my favourite year for movies and The Crow is part of that reason it's my favourite dark toned and has great cinematography and of course I was a great Bruce Lee fan and I wanted to see what Brandon Lee had up his sleeve and he gave possibly one of my favourite cult classics and Brandon Lee's Legacy will never be forgotten
Yeah 94 had some great movies...Speed, The Fugitive, Pulp Fiction, Forest Gump, Shawshank. ..what a year!
i'm really pissed off about this upcoming reboot
Speed, Natural Born Killers, and The Flintstones!!!
We lost Jason momoa in the crow reboot
The 90’s in general was a big movie time
The most beautifully, amazing movie . Brandon did phenomenal . RIP what a great actor. I agree with you 100% man
Thank you Raven. The Crow is my #2 favorite film of all time, behind Halloween.
My mom actually showed me The Crow for the first time, and it instantly became my favorite movie ever.
I still have The Crow soundtrack.
It’s still so good.
Oh yeah one of my favorite soundtracks.
This soundtrack is phenomenal.
My all time favorite movie. Brandon Lee will forever be remembered.
Damn brother. Had no idea the Crow meant so much to you too. I have Bruce tattooed on my back, I studied martial arts thru the 80s and was so pumped to watch Brandon take up the mantle of his father. Couldn’t wait for the movie to drop when the tragedy happened. I remember watching it in the theater and choking up several times. I love you reference Heath’s Joker since he too never saw his own masterpiece because of his untimely death.
I don’t drink anymore, 565 days sober, but I want to raise a toast a glass of cider to Brandon&Bruce. 🥂RIP fellas. We love and miss you!
Great video buddy,
Chuck Gordon
Brilliant review. My all time favourite movie and still the greatest comic/graphic novel movie ever made. Brandon Lee was amazing and it still crushes me that he is gone. Scene that will always put me to tears is that little tribute scene where Brandon says “I’m coming home Shelly” and he laughs as the kids are playing and pauses on Brandon’s smile
What gets me is how his death is just like that scene in game of death where there's a shooting on the set.
Yeah that's crazy. This movie just added to the whole Lee curse. Thanks for watching man!
the crow is best movie of all time it's on of my favorites
Rest In Peace Brandon Lee
One of the very best movies of all time! It just defines cool and it does everything right in every way. I thoroughly enjoyed seeing this movie in the theater when it first came out. I was very heart broken by Brandon's death and I thought this was a great movie to go out on.
+BramSLI1 Exactly! It really is so unique in composition, tone, and setting...and has the story/acting to back it all up. Beautifully done film!
The original Crow with Brandon lee is the greatest of all the crow media even better than the original graphic novel it's based on, the tv show they based off the movie was horrible and disrespected brandons legacy as the original Eric Draven in the comic he's just called eric and the events and characters are way different from the movie so really Brandon lee refined the crow character and has owned it ever since #GreatestMovieOfAllTime
+Randy Hogan Well said man. They really executed the first film perfectly...because of Brandon Lee's excellent performance.
My All time favorite movie, I could watch it 3 times a day really lol
How have I never watched your The Crow review?!? My all time fav!!!
I know Ashley. Damn you!!! My #2 of all time.
A few days ago I watched The Crow for the first time in about 20 years. I think it’s a pretty good movie, but I wish there was more character development and more going on with the plot. I felt like we didn’t know that much about the characters and they didn’t have much to do, but stylistically the film is amazing, and there are a lot of nice things about it. It gives me a very nostalgic 90s feeling. I remember the first CD I ever bought was The Crow soundtrack. I believe I saw the movie in theaters but I can’t remember exactly. I also remember when I was a teenager my brother painted my face to look like The Crow for Halloween. ;) One part of the movie that I felt was extremely effective was the ending when Eric visits Shelly’s grave. It brought tears to my eyes as I was watching. It was both a happy and sad ending. Happy because Shelly’s spirit comes to Eric so they can be together again, but also sad because of the sorrow and tragedy of their deaths. It was a very bittersweet moment and the musical score by Graeme Revell beautifully complemented that scene, and the whole movie as well. Of course Brandon Lee’s death adds an extra layer of sadness to the movie, too. The musical score is so good that it makes me want to purchase it to go along with the soundtrack that I still have.
For me this is one of those movies that feels like such a part of me. A very important and emotional film that really hits me on an emotional level. The score, the cinematography, Brandon's last performance. All great stuff.
This movie had some good scenes like when eric kills tbird then leaves a crow symbol in flames
Definitely one of the all time faves. The score,John Woo shootouts,the tone and the killer s/t,it has everything and Brandon Lee would have been a giant star. What a shame\;\9
Drumdums: This was a great review (greetings from CROATIA btw ;) ) I ve noticed that not so many reviewers are reviewing this movie, but much more its sequels. As far as your review.... lets just say that I personally have TOTALLY SAME feelings and nostalgic memories of this masterpiece....like I imagine U have. I was 14 when it came out and..... that was the time of my life (1993-1994) when 3 of my favorite musicians and actors have died....Kurt Cobain, River Phoenix and Brandon Lee. Even to this day, I clearly remember where I was, and what was I doing every time I heard about one of those 3 died. Therefore I really liked that you shared your own feelings about Brandon in first 5 mins of review...... because, even I was 13 at the time, and the war in Croatia was at its highest point..... I ll never ever forget how I felt in 1993 and 1994.... and how much those 3 super talented people affected my life, and defined my future life style, behavior, empathy, weakness and......stuff...... OK, I ll finish this post thanking you for making all this stuff still important and worth talking about..... especially for people who suffers from deep depression, anxiety, panic attacks and.....well, I'll stop here... Love and respect from Croatian fan!
One of the scenes that really stand out for me, is when Eric is laughing as the kids run around him. At one point, the camera zooms in on his face, in slow motion, than pauses. That for me, always stood out and still does today. It was a powerful, sad moment considering what happened to Brandon Lee on set. Damn, I love this movie so much! One of my all time favorites.
I loved this movie one of my favorites Loved Brandon Lee and Loved Bruce Lee so sad they are no longer with us my Bruce and Brandon Lee rest in peace
I watched The Crow movies on Netflix a few years ago and I really loved this movie. It's definitely my favorite and the best of the franchise.
Rest in peace Brandon Lee you will be remembered. It can't rain all the time.
I fell in love with this movie ever since I first was told about it by one of my ex girlfriends that loved this movie. I can't believe this movie came out just 4 short months before I was born. Damn. This is the only Crow movie I've ever had/seen. I've watched parts of another one, I think, that I caught on TV...but I forget which one. Haha. Take it easy, and don't forget, Conversations Kill, Lee. I freaking love that they added Stone Temple Pilots into this movie. Love me some STP. P.S. I always thought the quote "It can't rain all the time" meant like it won't always be sadness..you won't always have to go through shit. There must always be a light side...a light to the dark, in other words. Also, I just found out Hollywood's trying to remake The Crow, but Alex doesn't want them to because he wants this film to be Brandon's Legacy, and I gotta say, I think it would degrade Brandon's memory if it was remade. What do you think?
That's funny because this came out 2 months AFTER my son was born. It was his first movie in the theater (although he doesn't remember it haha). The STP song is one of my favorites...hell, the soundtrack is still in constant play in my car.
That's awesome...I would've loved to have been able to see this movie in the theater. Most of all my favorite movies I wasn't able to see in the theaters because I either wasn't born yet or my parents wouldn't let me and I was too young to drive or I just didn't know anything about the movie beforehand. I need to get this movie on Blu-Ray and I'm trying to get a Steelbook version. I used to have a DVD version, but I have no idea where it went, and I used to watch it pretty much 24/7 when I first got it...I just fell in love with the movie. It is really weird though how I have no idea where it went, because I'm pretty sure it barely left my PS3 (what I used to watch movies on until I got a PS4)
I really love this movie man. I remember seeing the trailer and just knew I had to see it. I saw the movie opening weekend, and I’ve been obsessed with is since. I was 12 at the time. Im old lol
brother i am so obsessed with it named my stage name after it for r.i.p. brandon lee, proud to say i did reach to millions in my region & always made sure they know the connection
I saw the film in the theater and knew I was going to have to go back and see it a second time. I have watched it over a thousand times since.It’s nice to know that someone else gets it! I had much the same experience as you. Brandon was and still is one in a million. He is irreplaceable. Thank you so much for your review. Peace!✨
Thanks for watching!
I found out about this movie because Sting was my favorite wrestler growing up. I always wondered why they called his image change the crow Sting, so I watched and found out why.
Paw King same but before I saw parts and images but never really thought of it till Sting
I was 17 in 94. Seen it 3 times in the theaters.. I’m 47 today and this still my favorite movie all time .. most justified revenge movie EVER .. it can’t rain all the time .. and tears won’t fall forever .. great movie .. awesome soundtrack 💯…. 💯❤️✌️
I was 21. Extremely important film to me.
I also have a very personal connection to THE CROW. I remember my best friend coming over to my place on a Saturday Morning with the newspaper article about Brandon's death. We were all shocked. I was already a fan via SHOWDOWN IN LITTLE TOKYO and RAPID FIRE. Remember, no internet in those days; we had to wait soooo long for any real news. Finally saw the trailer one nght late on Cinemattractions. Watched the film a total of five times at the cinema during that Summer of 1994. Love everything about it and it's still damn near perfect. Pure Classic.
Thanks for sharing such a nice story man. I saw Rapid Fire in the theater and was already a fan. Was sad when he died, but this movie really got to me. He would have been huge.
I loved Michael Wincott in The Crow.One of my fave movies of all time.I have the model of Eric Draven with a crow on his shoulder and a guitar;and the graphic novel.Loved Brandon Lee too.Amazing movie.
Michael Wincott is one of the greatest underrated villains out there. He really complimented Brandon Lee in The Crow. Did you see my last VHS haul? I got some Crow art that will blow your mind.
Great video! The Crow is one of my all-time favorites! I remember watching Brandon Lee, growing up in the 90s. I saw Rapid Fire on VHS, and saw The Crow on the same format. It was only later that I learned Brandon had been killed.
The look and feel of this film always blew me away. As a student of Gothic literature, it really touches on the total feelings, of love and sadness, and melancholy. Much of this has to do with the look, but also the sound. The music is two-fold excellent, with a remarkable OST and licensed soundtrack. Good point about most of the movie being black-and-white. Much of it is dark and rainy and most of the color is muted or subdued. Heavy use of red in the background also emphasises various themes that move back and forth. There's a lot going on, here, with love and death intertwining. And to its credit, the movie doesn't try to separate them, anymore than Emily Bronte did, in Wuthering Heights. It views each component through the total, haunted lens.
Your points about Eric are absolutely on point. He really is more invested in revenge than being with the living. But at the same time, a part of him does care. And at the end of things, two people are still in graves, side-by-side, united by their intense, special love for each other. There's a great beauty in their love as something that holds up through intense tragedy and waste.
One of my favorite films, with one of my favorite performances by any actor. Brandon dug deep and produced something intricate, unhinged and sympathetic; it easily could have been rote and mechanical, but he delivered something very special. Thanks to him, and virtually everyone else involved in this project, this movie speaks to my like no other! RIP Brandon!
Yeah I remember picking up the USAToday and seeing his picture on it the day after he did. It was such a weird feeling. Missed him immediatelyl.
I had a similar experience when I went and saw The Dark Knight at the cinema, no one moved until after the dedication to Heath Ledger. Even had a standing ovation for Ledger in the cinema I went to.
The Crow is a Dark visual Poem. A gothic poem
I came across your clip recently & I just have to say THANK YOU SO MUCH!! The Crow is my ultimate favorite movie ever & I so appreciate seeing & hearing someone speak so intently about a movie I adore so much!! My favorite scene is when he's getting dressed & you hear The Cure in the background. Your words really meant a lot, again thank you so much!!
Excellent review! I wish I could have seen this one in the theater. This is definitely my favorite revenge story of all time as well as one of my favorite movies in general. It's funny that you mentioned Heath Ledger as the joker because when I first saw the Dark Knight in the theater, I said to myself...I saw a lot of Brandon Lee in Heath's performance! It's such a tragedy that Brandon's life was taken after this. I actually heard somewhere that he was supposed to play Johnny Cage in Mortal Kombat after doing The Crow! He would have been perfect for that role!
+Philip Rouse Yeah I heard that too. He would have been great in that role for sure!
Recently I was sitting around thinking about movies, and my mind drifted to Brandon Lee's movies, and then I got extremely depressed.
RIP Brandon Lee and RIP Michael Massee. Brandon didn't deserve to go out like that and Michael Massee didn't deserve to have to live with that guilt.
I often get sad when I think about Brandon. So tragic what happened to him.
My favorite movies of all time. I saw it in theaters. I was 12. From the trailer, I knew it would be special. I was not disappointed. Once it hit VHS, I’d watch it everyday. I was obsessed with it. Sadly, it’s really underrated. No one really speaks about this movie. I give this movie the highest recommendation. Such a classic. I can go on and on about this movie.
One of my most watched films. I've seen it so many times.
“IS THAT GASOLINE I SMELL?!? >8•D...”
My all-time favorite movie. With an excellent soundtrack. The scene where Draven takes down a warehouse full of criminals to the sound of After the Flesh is just outstanding.
Oh hell yeah. My favorite quote is from that scene. "I see you've made your decision...now let's see you enforce it"
I absolutely love this movie it still breaks my heart Brandon Lee died so young like Bruce
I have not just the soundtrack of the movie, but also the score and have listened to them hundreds of times. But every time I hear the song ; It Can't Rain All The Time, and the part of the score called; Return To The Grave, I often find it hard to avoid shedding tears because of the terrible disaster that ended Brandon's life, and how that unique but sad sounding music always reminds of it. But there were at least 4 factors that led to the disaster: 1 In the shooting of previous scenes where guns were fired at him, after the director yelled out "cut" Brandon had been repeatedly pretending he was unconscious. But when he really was, the others thought he was still doing the same, and so no one paid any attention to him for at least an hour after he was shot. 2 Brandon was not wearing a bullet proof vest, even though he was advised to by the wardrobe supervisor. 3 There was no weapons expert on set at the time. 4 The gun was not checked before it was loaded for the scene, and together the fully loaded blank and the led tip that was unknowingly stuck in the barrel provided the impact of a real live bullet. This and heaps more information is provided in the book; The Crow, the story behind the film. But if he'd survived, Brandon might've ended up in a wheelchair due to being shot in the spine. And I think he would've preferred to die than end up like that. R I P Brandon dude, and may God bless you for how well you did at your final but best movie..
Malcolm Allison Great comment. I have the score as well. One of my favorites for sure. Miss Brandon terribly. Thanks for watching!
What a wonderful set up for the review brother. That was absolutely wonderful. I remember it exactly the way you do. And what you said brought back all the feels man. Wow! that was an amazing job. Thanks for the trip.
Thank you kindly good sir.
I agree with everything said in this review. Props to you sir.
This is the one. This is my favorite film of all time. I’m man enough to admit that this film gets me right in my heart. I grew up a Bruce Lee fan and then a Brandon Lee fan from Rapid Fire. I was following through the martial arts magazines about Brandon filming The Crow. Then I remember finding out at Lunch from high school that Brandon Lee was shot on the set of the Crow. I went back to school praying that he would be okay but when I got home later, I found out he had died. Broke my heart. The Crow didn’t come out until almost a full year later after Brandon passed, and I had to go see it to say goodbye. And what ended up happening was me awed at Brandon’s masterful performance in a dark and haunting film that is just brilliant.
It wasn’t goodbye to Brandon. It was hello. Because The Crow became my all time favorite film of all time and the closest I keep to my heart. Brandon Lee was gone but you said his legacy lives on in The Crow. I couldn’t agree more. Brandon’s legacy survives strongly in this masterpiece of cinema and that will keep him around forever.
#BrandonLeeForever
Side note - The cinematography, the atmosphere, the cast, the soundtrack, the score, the action, etc, it was all top notch, or in other words, Top Dollar.
Oh me too man. I get emotional every time I watch The Crow. Brandon's last performance was amazing.
I saw it in 94 the first time in a midnight showing with a bunch of goth kids, industrial music fans, and vampire live action role-players. It was a really cool experience. I think it is a great movie, but like you it really spoke to a time in my life. I can't view it objectively. It is too special to me.
Agreed. It was such a pivotal point in my life as well.
Book is "the Crow- the story behind the film" by Bridget Baiss
Also, you mentioned that there are still so many fans that are absolutely obsessed with this movie even to this day..... I'm one of those fans. One of the greatest movies of all time.
Such a classic, Brandon was so good in this. A horrible tragic ending for a talented young guy who had a lot more to give.
Yes he was mezmerizing.
The Crow is my all-time favourite movie! Great review!
The crow is probably one of my favorite action movies of all time. It is so great. I don't have anything else to say other than it's simply amazing. It's so cool that you got to see it in the theater man it must have been amazing. You have a great day lie
This movie is so haunting i went to see it in 1994 at the cinema aswell and the film was amazing amd like your expierence me and my girlfriend and friends sat quietly througb the credits and than sat quietly in the pub after. One of my favourite films ever and i still get a twinge of sadness about brandon lee. Ive never seen any the sequels as i couldnt bare to watch them. Another great reveiw man
One of my all time favorite And a very Awesome soundtrack
Great review dude! Love hearing the personal history with the movie!
Thank you Conner!
Great review. When I saw this movie, I have adored the crow ever since, posters, comics, action figures and even Halloween outfits.
Yeah it's still as popular today as it was back then. The Crow lives on!
The crow is a awsome film its one my favorite films. Brandon lee was. Fantastic as the crow he would of been a big action star if he wouldn't have been killed on the set. The original crow has and will always be the best.
Couldn't have said it better.
I always loved this movie it’s one of my favorites easily as well . The fact that Eric and Shelly died who was basically Sara’s mom and dad that she never really had so to Darla’s lack then she is left with nothing as well and I found that to be just as sad as the death of Eric and Shelly. I been working on a fan film project and it’s the most fun I’ve had out of it cuz I can relate as most people could relate to the character of Eric Draven dealing with loss. I hate Brandon died as well as Heath they would have gone to be two of the most successful actors today . I always did wonder idk for sure if they caught who switched the guns on set? Beautiful memorial review and great review as always brother.
It truly is a beautifully tragic film. Thanks man.
I really need to rewatch this, it’s been like 8 years since I’ve seen this, and i wasn’t sober at the time, so it most def needs a rewatch ❤️👍
The Crow(1994) was ahead of it's time in terms of tone & storytelling. It was a breath of fresh air that was a game changing film for it's day. I'm gonna confess that I had a crush on Bai Ling during my late teens & early 20s. The soundtrack is an encapsulation of what was great about Alternative rock at that time. Brandon Lee's performance is incredible & he disappears into the part. My rating: Platinum Class certification. An important work of art that's timeless.
It's still so unique. 25 years later.
this movie is pretty much a 90s Frank Castle/Punisher, as a Huge Fan of both this movie and The Punisher, I Love this movie so much
This is one of those movies that will be immortalized due to the circumstances surrounding it. I remember watching The Crow on VHS maybe a couple years after Brandon Lee had passed (I might’ve been 8 or so), and even though I was too young to understand the themes...the atmosphere, visuals, and music stuck with me. And of course, Brandon’s performance as Eric Draven... Truly immersive. You really can’t take your eyes off of him when he’s on the screen. 25 years later and The Crow still holds up and is easily one of my top favorite films of all time.
Agreed. The movie really stand the test of time. Still feels new to me. What a gift Brandon left us with.
I love your reviews , because i love horror movies and i like to hear other people opinions, sometimes they make points i did not get it. But besides loving horror movies i do love super heroes and anti heroes movies. You just touched my favorite anti hero movie, what happened to Brandom Lee was a tragedy, still the movie was really well done, it is hard to see that the he was dead at the end and some parts were made with cgi(really good for the time) and with doubles.
The crow is kinda diffrent from is comics counter part, yet both versions have a beautiful story, and both touch on death sadness and how to let that feelings go. The crow is one of the most beautiful stories i've seen in movies, and i've seen a lot of movies, i like the care and love you put in this review while talking about the crow because this movie deserves it, i dare to call it a masterpiece, too bad none of the sequels were quiet like the original, i hope the remake makes justice to the crow's name once again and that it's going to be a nice tribute to brandom Lee.
I can't agree more with what you said about this movie, it is one the movies of my life and i'm waiting for too long for a crow movie that gives the feelings the original did but i have high hopes that the remake is going to be just like that
Well Lee I'm watching The Crow for the first time it's seems pretty good and seeing Eric and his fiancee it's really a tragedy seeing them died honestly this movie pretty much going to affect me. So for Brandon Lee thank you.
If you want more info on "The Crow", there's a great book by Bridget Baiss that delves into every aspect of the movie. From the comic's origin, to the screenplay, casting, filming, Brandon's death, the police investigation, and returning after the fact to finish the whole thing. Its a very detailed book; you should definitely read it.
Oh thank you! Definitely picking this up!
lee! excellent review man! my sister back in the day was a huge fan of this movie because of Brandon lee! she even went to Seattle to get a picture of his grave! so growing up I had to deal with her obession over this movie hahaha! it is a good movie! my favorite kill was the car scene! been awhile, when he says a pray then gets blown up I think!
Yeah I love the car scene. It has my favorite line from the movie. .."Abashed the devil stood and felt how awful goodness is ".
The guy that did the cinematography for the The Crow also did Fight Club my two favorite movies.
Great review for an incredible movie. Easily one of my all time favorites.
Thank you...and me too!
I love this movie. Great review, Drumdums.
It's such a classic. Thanks Josh!
My fav movie of all time. Half of my songs (which you can find on my channel) have been inspired by the crow and Brandon. The tin tin scene is my fav one as well.
Oh yeah this movie was a life changer for me. I still watch it annually.
It's crazy man, My favorite movies have 3 released within 4 years of each other The crow Halloween 6 and Terminator 2. All three came out between 91 and 95. Good shit man.
George Cantstandya
My all time favorite movie! I remember when it came out, I was unable to see it in theaters as I was just 11 yrs old and when it came out on video, my mom wouldnt let me rent it. I had to wait for it to come on TV, and Starz was running a free weekend type deal and low and behold, The Crow was playing the last day of the free weekend. It was a Sunday evening around 6:30pm. I remember it like it was yesterday. The soundtrack is awesome as well. I’ve had to buy it 3 different times! Very good movie but sad at the same time because of what happened to Brandon.
Over 3k views and no thumbs down that tells a lot. Great movie. Still wach it every now and again.
Thanks so much man. I love this movie so much....poured my heart into this review.
That was such an epic review for such a fantastic movie! Loved it! There was one villian that didn't get mentioned and that was Tony Todd who played Top Dollar's bodyguard. I thought Todd was excellent. As a whole, this movie was nothing like I had seen before and that's why it is one of my all-time favorites (tied with Superman: The Movie 1978 and Halloween 1978). Thank you for this review.
Thank you for watching. Tony Todd was really good in this actually.
No problem! I have to say that your channel is one of my favorites. I like the fact that you tell the viewers that you don't hold back on liking or disliking a movie. I'm happy that I found this channel.
Did you see Showdown in Little Tokyo where Brandon teamed up with Dolph Lundgren? It was a little cheesy but fun. Brandon got to show off a little bit of his comedy skills.
Not only did I see it, but I just found a copy on VHS. Scooped it right up!
Damn Drums...you said it best that Brandon is a 'black and white character; there's no gray to him' 😢
Thank you!
Hey mate , well as most people i love this movie , really like the style of the movie and the vibe of the movie ! As always lots of fun checking your videos Lee :-) looking forward to your drumcover !!
Thanks man. Yeah I love The Crow so much!
I saw the crow 3 weeks after it opened…I was in south Orange County and it was an 8:00pm showing this movie has been my favorite movie since I saw it 🤘🤘🤘
Yeah it's so amazing.
What you need to do is change the color of your television so it's in black and white and watch the movie in that tone.
It's awesome.
Awesome review!!! I love this movie. I have a connection with this movie too. My former co-workers used to call me The Crow because I would dress in all black. I was a deeply depressed teenager. Later, it turn out that I didn't have depression but Bi-Polar. You are right, we have all movies that hit close to home. Mine are From Dusk Till Dawn, Donnie Darko, Fatal Attraction, The Crush, Fight Club, Sucker Punch and Birdman. I still need to watch Birdman. I still haven't seen that one.
+icelight7 Great films. Donnie Darko is another one for me that really resonates.
The Crow & Fight Club are my 2 most favorite movies of all time and DUDE..... I FUCKING LOVE UR SHIRT!!
Both are classics....and thank you.
It's crazy for me that I watched it last year last summer on Netflix after work and I watched it again in my bedroom while I was sick and I love The Crow it becomes my favorite movie.
a quick little anecdote from Brad Pitt
I remember back in the early days I hung out with Brandon Lee. He drove a hearse and lived in Echo Park. We went out one night and everyone else had peeled off, and we ended up back at his place and it was like six in the morning. A real, you know, drunk and stony night, and he proceeded that night to tell me how he thought he was going to die young like his dad. And I just chalked it up to, you know, stony 6:00 a.m. talk. Then he got The Crow (1994) the next year.
Damn. I never even knew that story.
@@DrumdumsMovieReviews he actually had a blast meeting Brandon Lee apparently he thought he was having the time of his life meeting the son of Bruce Lee
The Crow is a masterpiece.
Absolutely Deanna.
I'm glad someone feels the same way about this movie because I love this movie so much. This and The Matrix got me back into films made me love films again showed me movies are not just movies there something much more. Brandon Lee gives one of the best performances ever by an actor. The Crow is a cinematic masterpiece its one of my favorite movies of all time and its one of the greatest films ever made
Well said. This really is the movie that made look deeper into films and imagine the possibilities. It's so unique.
I truly hope that Hollywood will not try to reboot the crow leave the crow alone this is a classic can't never be remade there is no replacing Brandon Lee may Brandon Lee rest in peace awesome movie I always get sad when I watch the crow because Brandon Lee is no longer with us he was amazing in this movie love love this movie
This movie came out a week after I was born. It's probably my third favorite movie of all time. I also really love Bruce's movies.
Beautiful analysis!!!Thanks!!!
Thanks for watching!
@@DrumdumsMovieReviews You're welcome!!!Everything you said about ''The Crow'' is exactly what I feel about the movie.
Me and my brothers watched Brandon films before The Crow came out.The Crow for me is easy top 50 films of all time. My younger brother was so obsessed he dressed up like him 😂 he was only 16 years old at the time. Great Memories soundtrack is next level The Cure was massive at the time
Thank you for sharing!
Yup, it's me again. :p Just watched this and what you said at the beginning of the review about this movie was what I felt like I had to explain to people was dark and harsh but with a great heart underneath(even if it was soaked in sorrow/revenge.
Nick Randolph Couldn’t have said it better. Thanks for watching man!
Any time my friend!
My #1 movie of all time for me!!
Hell yeah!!
A few years ago, I took my girlfriend to this at in a private screening to this in a movie theater. We ate Chinese food take out and had the best time. This movie has always meant something to each of us. Best Valentine's day ever.
Great review man I love this film it has been awhile for sure. I bought it on blu ray have yet to rewatch it, but after your review you have inspired me to do so tonight thanks man. When I was a kid I was a huge huge fan of Bruce and Brandon lee. I had all of their films on vhs and watched them over and over. Rapid Fire was always fun to watch so was Showdown in little Tokyo idk if you have seen it pr not. I love that movie it was a good action comedy! Lee: Were going to eat fish off those naked chicks! My all time favorite film is Terminator 2 it was a big part of my childhood since I was 5. It is one of the few films I can watch 100 times over and still get chills from it. I can quote every line from the film as well. Great review dude such a classic film and a very tragic loss he had potential to be a great actor it really showed in this film. Take care man!
+MattaTron1000 Yeah man Brandon Lee's death is so heartbreaking. This was his ultimate swansong. Terminator 2 is easily the great action film of all time...just epic! Fish off naked chicks...yes!
Now you got me interested in seeing this film again Lee! LOL
Oh it's a classic.
