Pros:
Brandon Lee, great plot, effects, final interview, soundtrack

Cons:
Brandon Lee's final film, for some--the amount of violence and cursing

The story of Eric Draven is so much more than just a great film. There is a message held within that stresses the importance of every aspect of life....both the ones viewed as special and those that are mundane. The unfortunate and untimely death of Brandon Lee only intensifies that missive. In the following review, I will attempt to convey the overall significance of the movie that created a legend. The Story On October 30th, the night before their wedding, Eric Draven (Brandon Lee) and Shelly Webster (Sofia Shinas) are brutally murdered by four thugs hired by the crime lord known as Top...

  Brandon Lee - From Beyond The Grave
Review created: 12/31/00
by: Freak369 -- a member of Epinions

Pros:
Outstanding acting, superb stroyline, excellent cast of characters.

Cons:
Death of Brandon Lee, missing footage of Lee's scenes.

The Crow is not just a love story, if it were that simple that cut and dry then it would have been a modern day version of Romeo

Pros:
Great cast, excellent soundtrack

Cons:
None

After watching this movie, you should really check out the graphic novel by James O'Barr. The novel has far more characters and is much darker and deeper. However, this movie is beautiful and touching. The Crow is a love story, it is about a long so strong that death could not seperate Eric Draven (Brandon Lee) from his soon-to-be wife. On the night before their wedding, Eric and his wife are murdered because she was working on a real estate deal that would have kept a bunch of gangsters out of a good bit of money. One year after their murder, Eric rises from the grave and seeks out to avenge.

  Something to Crow about!

Pros:
Great action, STRONG plot, well written

Cons:
The "head villian" could've been a little stronger at the end.

I must start by saying I am biased toward this movie. By now you've probably noticed it in my "love it" list. That would be because I think it is one of the top 5 movies I've ever seen. This movie has everything you need in a flick. The characters tend to be strong and well thought out. Almost all of them change throughout the movie. I can't think of any static characters at all as a matter of fact. I'm not going to give away much of the plot because I couldn't do it justice on a keyboard. I will say as much as I can though. The setting seems to be a dark, hopeless, lawless future. The...
