Movie not that great
5 January 2005
I guess I was expecting a movie as good as the first Crow movie and I was terribly disappointed with City of Angels. Not only was it not even close to the superb acting and story line of the first Crow, it wasn't even close to being related to it in content, context, or special effects. This movie, rated as a movie by itself and not compared to the first Crow and Brandon Lee, is a mediocre half-baked attempt to keep The Crow alive. Extreme violence and a sexual scene that leaves nothing to the imagination makes this movie a candidate for late night viewing when all of the infomercials and paid programming is on. I would not watch it again and it did not stir me in the slightest like the first Crow movie did. Some gross scenes were not necessary and the movie could have been much better. The cast did a superb job though, and in recognition of their superior acting, this movie should not reflect badly on them. I hope the rest of the Crow movies are much better than this one.
