    The Crow is an absolutely fab film. Brandon Lee is just the best!! (Rest in peace my friend) There is not alot i can say for this film, but there is one thing, go and buy it!! It is money well worth it. The Crow 2 and 3 are rubbish compared to the first. You just cant beat the original!
    The extra footage is quite sad in knowing that this is his final interview and he will be sadly missed. Go and buy it

    Well, I think this film will appeal to a limited audience. I`m fed up with these croaky creepy crawlie films.

    A beautiful dreamlike fantasy tale that has alot going for it. It is a great film to remember Brandon Lee for (I dont think he had been in any good films prior to this). The special effects are way ahead of its time and really bring Brandon back to life, so well that if no one told you he was dead for alot of the film that you would not notice. The hyper-gothic setting is greatly enchanting and adds to the fairytale style of this film.
    One of my favourite films.
