Movie Title: The Crow The Crow is available for streaming or downloading. |
This DVD has it all, and is well worth the extra trace. First of all there is a mountainous movie. The Crow is a cult classic, but I don’t mean to demean it at all by calling it one. Based on the comical book of the same name, The Crow has a ample premise (a man comes serve from the monotonous to avenge the death of the woman he loves) and is made well. It’s a shadowy film made in muted, unlit colors, almost shadowy and white. The action sequences are broad (after all, Brandon Lee is Bruce Lee’s son) . This would have been Brandon’s break-out role if he hadn’t died. It also has one of my approved fight scenes, the shoot out at Top Dollar’s. And Ernie Hudson is surprisingly pleasurable in his role in the film. And a gargantuan soundtrack.
The DVD is loaded with extras. There is commentary by Jeff Most (producer and executive music producer of the Crow movies) and John Shirley (co-writer of The Crow) . Their commentary is almost as genuine as the film. You salvage a lot of insight into the movie, how it was made, and why sure choices were made. This is what DVD commentaries should be like. (It is a shame that Brandon Lee was unable to do a commentary, it would have been very enchanting to contemplate what he had to say about the film) . Most’s commentary is very informative and very spellbinding. My only fault with the commentary is that there wasn’t remarkable on Brandon’s death. I really expected to hear more about it, since it is such a stout fraction of the mythos of the film. Also on disc one is the DVD-ROM extras. There is the script that you read the same time the film is playing. There is a trivia game (which really isn’t that gargantuan and is about the entire Crow franchise and not impartial this movie) . You can also seek the “enhanced playback track” which has trivia and other features as the film plays.
In addition to the usual production stills, posters, and (five) memoir boards (one of those is the record board for the Shoot Out at Top Dollar’s and it is very enthralling to examine), Disc 2 contains a Gradual the Scenes featurette that runs about 15 minutes. It is not a making of, rather those interested with the movie (including Brandon Lee) discuss the movie and opinion. There is a 30 tiny Portrait of James O’Barr (creator of The Crow silly book) which is O’Barr in his basement talking to someone holding a video camcorder. You regain a lot of insight into his life, his work, the movie, Hollywood, and where many of his ideas for The Crow came from. There is something called the Deleted Footage Montage, but it really isn’t deleted footage. There is some deleted footage in the montage, but most of it is outtakes, alternate takes, leisurely the scenes footage, and what looks like scenes that weren’t deleted from the movie. It’s a touching `tribute’ to Brandon Lee, but not what it should have been. And finally there are three extended scenes (The Arcade Bombing; Fun Boy Fight; Shoot Out at Top Dollar’s) . What makes these so animated is that you explore what the recent footage was and how they edited the scene to acquire it go so posthaste paced. You eye the decision process in removing unessential footage to hold the movie from bogging down.

So you have a large movie and some really satisfactory extras on this DVD. Definitely one that should be in your library.
For those of you don’t know this movie is Brandon Lee’s last. Tragically, he died during the last days of filming. This film would have catapulted Brandon Lee into major-stardom.
Knowing this only makes the movie darker, sadder, and more heart-wrenching.
Based on the funny book series of the same name by James O’Barr, the movie stays halt to its comical book roots. Shadowy imagery, up-close shots, and stark contrasts add to the laughable book feel and gothic peep of the movie. The music in the film, both soundtrack and songs, relate thoughts and imagery.

The Crow is a anecdote of cherish and revenge, loss and retribution. It is a portrait of the struggle between the hurt of seeing the past, and the peace of gaining closure. Director Alex Proyas did a fantastic job of capturing this struggle on film.
While the bulk of the supporting cast is at the very least believable, Michael Wincott is disturbingly creepy as the main antagonist “Top Dollar.” Ernie Hudson, here playing a cop who thinks he’s seeing a ghost, delivers an even performance.

But the movie is ALL Brandon Lee. He brought his martial arts background and talent to this film and gave 200%. He was also the movie’s fight choreographer. This means: sit up and contemplate!
This movie is 80% action, 5% comedy, and 15% heart-wrenching, tear-jerking tragedy. Be prepared to sit on the edge of your seat, and exhaust up a box of kleenex.
