The audience’s predictions were right about this one The Crow reboot is next-level bad.
Earlier in the year, we questioned if thereactions toThe Crowreboot trailerwere too harsh.
Well, lets go on record here and apologize for even suggesting that, because they werent harsh enough.
The Crow (2024) / Lionsgate Films
What in the world is happening in this movie?
This isntAlex ProyasThe Crow.
So, Roegs muscle finds and finishes them off; however, Eric receives a chance at redemption.
Sounds like a simple plot on paper, right?
Somehow, the film fluffs it up.
The addition of Roegs supernatural powers adds unnecessary complication to the story.
Were important parts maybe cut out ofThe Crowreboot?
The film feels jigsawed to death where people fought over the final cut in the editing room.
Bill Skarsgards Eric saves The Crow reboot
Aesthetically, Bill Skarsgards Eric was always a hard sell.
That being said, Skarsgard convinces as Eric.
Hes also lost, because he isnt a violent person by nature.
For everything Skarsgard does right, hes let down by his co-stars.
Theres no personality or development to any of their characters.
Then, theres FKA Twigs Shelly.
In fact, one has to wonder why more of the film wasnt like this to begin with.
So, where to from here?
