The Crow- After watching Dark City I wanted to go back to this. There are a ton of similarities visually, some shots are basically duplicated with a bigger budget and better technology in DC. The movie itself is still pretty awesome, 90s as fuck. It's funny going back to it though and seeing that transition period from 80s goth and industrial to the more commercial stuff we would get in the late 90s. It's very much an MTV generation movie. Brandon Lee's performance is passable, he's trying but slips back into his natural clean cut nice guy self in some scenes. Michael Wincott steals the show though, he's just great as the bad guy. The whole supporting cast is solid actually and the soundtrack is fun but a little cringe. Overall the movie still holds up remarkably well all things considered.
