Crow: City of Angels (Ws) [VHS] More of rant than a review 7/10 – J. Paul – hell MI usa
I know I’m going to p**s a lot of people off but this is a good sequel it’s not as good as the 1st cause none of sequels will ever be as good. Casting is great Vincent Perez plays
Ashe Corven/The Crow Richard Brooks Plays Judah Eral Mia Kirshner plays Sarah Iggy Pop plays Curve & Thuy Trang plays Kali. This movie I feel has a darker tone the story is Ashe Corven & his son witness a murder & are killed by members of Judah Eral’s gang. Sarah from the 1st movie from the 1st movie is an adult she has changed mutured & it is for the better. I know a lot of you will say oh I liked the Sarah from the 1st movie better so you like a foul mouthed annoying (at times brat.) You had to pay to watch her you don’t have to pay to read my reviews. You want to see s****y go watch Katie Stuart from the TV show. Sarah sees Ashe & Danny’s murders in her dreams the Crow leads her to Ashe she actually applies the paint to Ashe so it actually has a reason unlike Salvation to have the style of paint that Eric Draven had. Greammer Revell returned & done the score the soundtrack is still b****in’ White Zombie Filter & a young Deftones. I liked The Crow COA it’s underrated really the only good sequel in the Crow franchise.

The first crow was an amazing film.haunting and beautiful. This one had so much potential but ultimatly falls a bit short, the main character ash is not as interesting as eric from the first one and at times ash sounds like he barly knows english.i think they shound has founded the same template as the first film and the tow that followed this one by having the crow avatar come back to avenge the murder of him and his girlfriend not his son like this one.to me it didnt seem as powerful or moving.it get three stars because the music was good and it is a crow movie afetr all and i love the crow mythos and the idea that true love lives forever.watch if your a fan and are curious but dont expect the power or emotion of the first crow film.
: Because of his tragic death on the set of The Crow, we’ll never know if Brandon Lee would have turned one successful film into a popular series. But one look at this tepid sequel suggests that not even the charismatic Lee could have rescued The Crow movies from the burden of a lackluster screenplay. Based on the popular comic books by James O’Barr, this sequel finds Vincent PĂ©rez as a man named Ashe, who is murdered along with his young son by a gang of drug-running thugs under the employ of slimy kingpin Judah Earl (Richard Brooks). Ashe is resurrected with the help of a tattoo artist named Sarah (Mia Kirschner), whereupon he begins a campaign of revenge against his killers. More a rehash than a sequel, the film repeats the grungy, dark look of urban decay from The Crow, but its combination of violence, heavy-handed symbolism, and tacky sentiment make this a film strictly for nihilistic teens. Then again, no movie in which veteran punkster Iggy Pop plays a sleazeball can be considered a total loss. –Jeff Shannon Crow: City of Angels (Ws) [VHS]
