Summary: Excellent Movie-A must see.
Review: The studios really dropped the ball not releasing this one in the theaters. It is a much better movie than City of Angels. And takes a very different approach, instead of portraying a decadent dead world, it breathes some much needed life into the movie. Nor does it tread the same ground the first two did, Being more of a mystery than a staight out vengence killing spree. There are even a plot twist towards the end that is VERY well done and will leave you guessing as to what is "Real" and what isn't. Further down, you'll note someone questioning how "Everyone knew about the crow", but throughout the movie you'll hear occasionally people saying "I'd read about this kind of thing happening", so apparently people do have knowledge of the dead arising which explains how they know about the crow. This is a MUST see movie.

Summary: Close to the first crow
Review: This movie was very close to being as good as the first crow. And honestly, I didn't want to see it after the disaster the second Crow was. But I rented it anyway and I have to tell you, I really liked it.They could have lengthened the movie a bit to develop the characters a tad more, but the acting was really good, the plot was really good, I liked how they decided to go with making the face look the way it did because of what happened to him, and not because he painted it that way. It was kind of cool to see them head a different route with a different "Crow". I liked the flair this movie had. Although I still loved the first crow best, this really comes close. you definately have to get the DVD. I bought it and it has a lot of great stuff like the training of the birds, behind the scenes footage, and a behind the makeup look. Its a good movie. I highly suggest it for Crow fans, and for those (Like me) who never heard of the crow before the first movie. I'm more of a "Disney" girl myself, but this crow and the first one, I really liked.

Summary: Get It if you like Crow movies
Review: The Crow Salvation was the best one I saw it has some humor it has a lot of different stuff the music gets stuck in ur head after u watch the movie and the music goes along with the movie because this cop turns on a song an waiting for a train to pass the beat goes with the red warning lights. At first i rented it an i didn't want to return it so go buy it if you like the others.

Summary: The Crow Regains it's Wings!!!!!!!!!
Review: Being a fan of the original crow I was quite excited about THE CROW: SALVATION. Eric Mabius does an exellent job portraying Alex Corvis. The Thing I like about this movie the most is that he did not try to copy any of the previous crow perfomances. He really went out and made the role his own. Unlike Brandon Lee's character who was depressed and very somber through the movie Mabius's character was in awe of the power he posessed. The action sequences were great, the acting was good. All in all this may actually be my favorite movie in the series. Well hopefully the next crow: The Crow: Lazerus, as it is being called at the moment will be as good. Hopefully DMX can pull it off! All in all I would definately suggest picking this up as soon as possible. It has some cool extra features as well. Behind the paint: a short clip of the make-up process, A behind the scenes segment, as well as Who's that bird: a short feature about the actual birds used in the trilogy.

Summary: I just bought the dvd and loved the movie.
Review: The Crow Salvtion is a great movie. it isn't as good as the first one but i don't think any movie will ever be that good. its like the other 2 crow movies but its got a twist to it. in the first 2 the victim knew who killed him but in the crow salvation he didn't know. he had to figure out who killed him and why. if you like the other 2 crow movies you will like this one.

Summary: PLEASE DONT BUY THIS
Review: What an uninspired mess. Visually Eric Morbius is just boring to look at as the Crow. Character motivation is nowhere to be seen. We know who the main villian is minutes into the movie. Even the way the Crow goes about exacting his vengence is boring and insipid. I regret buying it and plan to just sell this copy on Ebay in order to make some money back

Summary: Must see for Crow Fans!
Review: After hearing that this movie was a flop during a short showing in WA, I was expecting this movie to be another bust or as whack as The Crow: City of Angels. All the action, dialogue, and music seemed to flow very well in the movie and Eric Mabius does a way better job playing the crow than Vincent Perez. The reason why I gave this movie 4 stars instead of 5 stars was because the first one was best out of all the Crow movies put together. So if you liked the first one, but hated the last one, you will probably like Salvation. I hope the next Crow movie is as good or better than Salvation. Rumor has it that rappers DMX and possibly Eminem MIGHT be in it.

Summary: More of the same
Review: Man and love intrest befall tragedy, said character 'x' is raised from the dead to seek revenge ... blah blah blah. What infuriates me the most about this movie was that there is an enormous ammount of completely untapped potential in every entry into this series. Simply the idea that there really is no returning cast for each movie leaves each writer/director with the ability to go where ever they please with the material. For example, what about a female crow? Or maybe instead of a dark, brooding, lead male play off of a more scarcastic, dark humor-ish, angle (a la Daredevil or Spiderman). The script writing is mediocre at best (and I loved Chip Johnnson when he wrote for Millenium, he's capable of much better). Some things have me puzzled, such as how none of the villians or other characters in the movie recognize Crovis (the crow), who is still wearing is prison garb and very little make-up. Why is there so much yellow fog everywhere? Why is Alex Crovis' lawyer (Miles from Murphy Brown fame, who I just can't take seriously) not seem suprised at all to find his dead client walking around? How does everyone seem to figure out the significance of the crow (including Corvis). Mabius seems to spend the whole movie wondering how, emotionally, to play his role. William Atherton couldn't look more disintrested if he tried and Kristen Dunst should fire whoever signed her into this. Everyone just seemed to phone this one in ... if you're really that intrested, have someone else rent it and watch theirs. I hope New Line/Dimension recircles the wagons and comes up with some idea on how to inject new blood into this franchise. I'm a big fan of the series, it could be so good, but for right now, it's awfully close to hitting the drain.

Summary: Excellent Movie
Review: I pre-ordered this and just received the DVD. The movie was great. I was entertained, annoyed, frustrated, and vindicated. The movie is true to the spirit of the original. I would (and duck when I say it obviously) say that this rivals for the best in the trilogy. Buyer beware of rumors heralding this as another big flop: some sites even have this listed as a 4 and 1/2 stars out of 10 with 90 votes. The movie wasn't released "officially" before yesterday. If you have any doubts, borrow it from a friend and watch it, then buy your copy before the price gets high from sellout.

Summary: Sort of a Salvation
Review: I recently watched The Crow: Salvation, I had to rent it unfortunately. I thought it was an excellent addition to the mythos. Eric Mabius does an excellent job of portraying Alex Corvis, a young man wrongfully accused of killing his girlfriend, and excecuted for the crime. His scene are extremely awesome and he doesn't try to copy Brandon Lee's Crow from the first film, Mabius is his own Crow and he steals the show. The shock on his face when he finds out who the real killers are to the reaction of the flashbacks he has of his girlfriend. There were some things in the film that could have been done better, mainly the action sequences, but all in all it was a great film. I recommended this film to Crow fans and people who aren't fans of The Crow...and you don't need to see the first two movies to understand the crow mythos.
