The Crow Reviews Turn The Title Character Into A Punching Bag
Briefly

Skarsgård intentionally plays this antihero as a relentless brooder. The actor's approach reflects this new film's commitment to utter seriousness, leaving no room for camp or dark comedy... This forgettable new version doesn't just fail to honor [Brandon Lee's] memory--it never justifies its existence on its own merits.
[Skarsgård is] shockingly inert for someone with a career built almost entirely on characters at the intersection of creepy and hottie.
It doesn't matter how low your expectations are for Rupert Sanders' The Crow, because this callous and clumsy remake will still fail to exceed them... This is not the Eric Draven that Crow fans know and love.
