'The Crow' Is Trapped In Its Own Purgatory
Briefly

Rupert Sanders’ films often showcase lush visuals that captivate viewers, though his narratives may lack depth beyond the stunning set design and cinematography.
Sanders masterfully incorporates Faustian themes of deals with the devil and the burden of purity into his gothic reimagining of The Crow.
In The Crow, Eric Draven’s character explores his Dark Past more thoroughly than in previous iterations, showcasing the circumstances that create this anti-hero.
The legacy of Brandon Lee looms over this adaptation, with an expectation that no thematic adjustments can fully revive The Crow for modern audiences.
