Amazon.com
Clean-cut kid Alex Corvis (Eric Mabius) is framed and executed for the brutal murder of his girlfriend (Jodi Lynn O'Keefe). He is revived by a crow spirit guide to hunt down the corrupt policemen who committed the crime, and ultimately to unmask the mysterious scarred man who ordered her death. The macabre noirish spin James O'Barr's original graphic novels put on the superhero mythos translated reasonably well for the original film of the series, directed by Alex Proyas in 1994 and starring the late Brandon Lee. But the premise had already worn thin by the first sequel, 1996's The Crow: City of Angels, and this entry simply rehashes the same story (tragic hero in clown greasepaint avenges beautiful dead girlfriend by eliminating outlandish villains) without adding anything new to the mix. Mabius brings nothing to the role except boyish good looks, while Kirsten Dunst is wasted in a supporting role as the murdered girl's sister. The supporting cast includes career cad William Atherton as Dunst's red-handed dad, and Fred Ward as a police captain with a taste for recreational surgery. Director Bharat Nalluri (the minor U.K. cult pic Killing Time, 1998) ably handles the action scenes and faux postindustrial atmosphere but seems at odds with how to pace or stage dialogue scenes (not that X-Files scribe Chip Johannesson's script provides any worth the effort). Gore effects courtesy the KNB Group and a Sturm und Drang soundtrack featuring Kid Rock, Hole, and others will help hold the most loyal fans' interest. --Paul Gaita

 "The best of the Crow sequals" October 6, 2009
Anthony Perez (usa)
The above statement in my opinion is true.this is the second best crow movie that has come out.the first one is a classic,city of angels didnt deliver the powerful emotion from the first(see my reveiw for more on that) and the forth,wiked prayer,was almoast laughable.salvation however tries to recapture what people loved about the first and on a few levels it does.the love between the main characters feels real,the way he goes about hos revenge is a good considering what he was put through,action is good also.and the story is unique in that hes charged with something he didnt do and is forced to pay the price ony to have to set the wrong things right.watch and you will enjoy it.in my opinion it shoud be the first crow then salvation,the other two should be forgotten.
Much better than the second, not as good as the first, but still good! September 29, 2009

I was surprised how much I liked this movie because I really didn't enjoy the second (City of angels). I think Eric Mabius did a good job as the crow, he has that quality where he is scary enough not to mess with, but vulnerable enough to sympathize with. I have to say though, the first is the best because there is no topping a true angel, Brandon Lee
 Better than the Original! September 25, 2009
Ms. Pam K. Larson (Boone Iowa USA)
Not being a real fan of the Crow series, I watched this with no expectations. I found the movie perfect. Sad story line and wonderful revenge. Gets no better than this but forget the other Crow movies when you watch it.
Come on guys this really isn't that bad of a movie June 24, 2009
Ted E. Kissel (Greencastle IN)
A lot of people I know have said this film is bad that it was the by far the worst movie in the Crow series, and is an epic failure (just like Sarship Troopers 2 & 3) (well I've actually never heard anyone reference Starship Troopers 2 & 3 with this movie). And I've heard a lot of people say that there never should have been any sequels made to the movie "The Crow". But after actually seeing this movie, I'd have to say that it was actually pretty good. I mean it wasn't near as good as the first Crow, that movie and "Independence Day" are by far the 2 best films of the 1990's.
 Remains a good story January 31, 2009
WA Kimble (New Zealand)
Although not as good as the original Crow which was a classic, Kirsten Dunst gives an apt performance. She is not as insipid as she was in Superman
