El cuervo Ratings & Reviews
- Tim Jankowski25 de abril de 2026It can't rain all the time. Although they can't make movies like this all the time, absolute classic.
- Daniel Gustavsson12 de octubre de 2024Fantastic movie that delivers on all fronts. It's beautiful, intense and interesting.
- DarlingInThePlexx4 de agosto de 2025Review by someone who owns a long black coat and never emotionally recovered This movie didn’t just define a genre—it created a subculture. If you’ve ever seen a brooding teen in eyeliner, black boots, and a Nine Inch Nails hoodie cry in the rain, you can thank The Crow. Brandon Lee (yes, Bruce Lee’s son, yes, I’m already crying) gives a haunting, electric performance as Eric Draven—a musician brought back from the dead to avenge the brutal murder of him and his fiancée. It’s gothic, gritty, poetic, violent, and yes… tragically real. Because Brandon died during filming. And once you know that, the whole film hits different. It’s not just fiction—it’s a requiem. The movie is basically Shakespeare with leather and eyeliner. The city is soaked in rain and sorrow, the lines are quotable in that perfect ’90s-angst-poetry way (“It can’t rain all the time”… excuse me, I’m SOBBING), and every single frame looks like it should be printed on a velvet journal from Hot Topic. Also: 🎸 The soundtrack? ICONIC. Every. Single. Track. Hits. Like. A. Bat. Through. Stained. Glass. Nine Inch Nails. The Cure. Rage. Pantera. This soundtrack raised a generation of beautifully sad weirdos—myself included. The cast? Flawless. • Brandon Lee is transcendent. • That little girl (Rochelle Davis) gives more emotion than half of Hollywood combined. • The villains are unhinged, cartoonish, terrifying, and perfect for this comic-book fever dream. Yes, they made sequels. No, we do not speak of them. This movie is sacred. Watch it on a stormy October night. Light a candle. Put on your old combat boots. And pour one out for Brandon Lee. 🖤
- Kevin Ward1 de julio de 2025Think I would have liked this more had I seen it during it’s original release. Loved the look, aesthetics felt very much like Gotham City, and Lee’s performance even has a Joker quality at times. Liked Ernie Hudson and Tony Todd. Michael Wincott played the same damn character he’s played in everything, ever. The budget for breakaway glass must have been off the charts for this. Enjoyed it, but this is one of those films that I was just too late to the party, I think.
- Scott Enman11 de abril de 2026Caw caw!!!
- VonHader11 de octubre de 2025For the metal and grunge GenXers, this was our other Batman. The dark anti-hero that could kill and drop f-bombs in a setting that makes Gotham city look like the Vatican. This is one of the few that's aged really well.
- GBWest30 de marzo de 2026The Crow, starring Brandon Lee is a perfect analogy of life between men and women could be, there is a common goal that he toils over for her...for them. When his duty is done she is there as his comfort, his calm and the one person who can bring him peace like no other can. I havent seen this movie in a very long time, it is much better than I remembered.
- George Bananza22 de marzo de 2026Rest in peace.
- 0 19 de febrero de 2026amazing film score.
- darsan8 de febrero de 2026RIP brandon lee 💔💔 he gave an iconic performance as eric draven.
- Adam Aragon2 de noviembre de 2025I watch this every Halloween. It still holds up. It's Gothic and melodramatic and very 90s but I still cherish it. A great action movie with heart and style.
- IAMKWEST7 de marzo de 2025Don't judge me but this is without a doubt my favourite movie.
- DTSaito21 de septiembre de 2025Alex Proyas’ The Crow is a dark, stylish fusion of gothic romance, comic-book adaptation, and revenge thriller. Brandon Lee stars as Eric Draven, a musician resurrected from the grave to avenge the brutal murder of his fiancée and himself. The film’s visual identity is its strongest asset: a rain-soaked, decayed cityscape rendered in moody blacks and neon glow, equal parts comic-book panel and music video. The soundtrack—packed with industrial and alternative rock—cements the film’s place as a definitive ’90s cult artifact. Lee’s performance is haunting, equal parts vulnerability and menace, made all the more poignant by his tragic death during production. His presence elevates what could have been pulp into something mythic. While the narrative follows a familiar revenge arc, Proyas’ direction infuses it with atmosphere, poetry, and an undercurrent of doomed romance. The Crow endures not only as a stylish piece of goth-pop culture but also as a heartfelt tale of love, loss, and justice from beyond the grave. It’s a tragedy on and off screen, and one of the most iconic cult films of its era.
- Teddy Lee Brewer Jr16 de octubre de 2025One of the very early action-porn movies. Brandon Lee's last movie and taken from a pretty great story.
- Richard5 de octubre de 2025Rented it on VHS and it felt like holding a piece of gothic legend in your hands. Back then, walking into the video store and spotting The Crow on the shelf was like discovering a forbidden relic. The cover was stark: Brandon Lee in black leather, pale makeup, and a stare that promised pain and poetry. Brandon Lee’s performance as Eric Draven was raw, electric and heartbreakingly real. Knowing he died during filming gave every scene a ghostly weight. It wasn’t just a revenge story, it was a requiem. The VHS format added to the atmosphere. The grain, the analog warmth, the occasional tracking line, it all made the film feel even more haunted. So yes,this is the one to watch. The one to own. The one to revisit on stormy nights with combat boots by the door and eyeliner in the drawer. The remake might be a crow movie (but it feels not good and off), but the 1984 version is a ritual and the real one.
