They shouldn’t have remade this classic smh. I wont be watching this one. No shade to Bill , but Brandon Lee owns that character for me .

[@danavixen6274]

EXACTLY! 💯

[@elijah1126]

I also agree it is a hard watch

[@ty6unleashed]

They never really stopped making them. Like city of angels dropped in 96. Which mean they made that movie the next year.

[@ragantate3995]

I concur.

[@RunninChic620]

“Hollywood come up with original shit” THAT PART!! Say it again Tony!!!

[@whodissis1]

Tony really trying to get in good with the Crows with the double-double back on the ending 😂😂

[@danavixen6274]

Brandon Lee will ALWAYS have the last laugh when it comes to failed sequels and this 'remake'. Brandon Lee was/is MASTERFUL as The Crow/Eric Draven. A THOROUGHLY done MASTERPIECE that is UNFORGETTABLE. 🖤 I love Bill Skarsgard and FKA Twigs, but NO! I have no intention of supporting a remake we didn't ask for! Thank you for your service, Tony! 🫡

[@Lilboozibert]

Pigeons stay merkin people. Remember the Goodfeathers from Animaniacs?! The Pigeon: City of Poopy

[@InsomniacWriter]

😂😂😂😂

[@InsomniacWriter]

The crow series was pretty good

[@NemesisEnforcer4937]

The Goodfeathers were the best part of Animaniacs to me.😂

[@Passion84GodAlways]

Bill Skarsgård's accent changed so many times during this film it was (unintentionally) comical. 🥴

[@lorelailuna]

It kept throwing me off 😂

[@PKDionysus]

The thumbnail, Tone. 😭😭😭🤣🤣🤣

[@Emanthebald]

You better not be playing around when Tony pulls up like this

[@sharaymecrumble2235]

Everytime😂😂😂😂😂

[@nerdyggg]

The first Crow is the only crow for me bruh✌🏾💙

[@banx757]

I too saw The Crow, 30yrs ago in theaters. But I was also a fan Brandon Lee from Showdown in Little Tokyo, Kung Fu: The Movie, and Rapid Fire. I too felt the same way when I heard him pass and felt The Crow would have been that breakout performance for him. Also, shout to Struggle Nation. They said for the first 3/4 of the movie he was The Pigeon. The last half of the movie he was The Crow.

[@danavixen6274]

The Flop is eating Crow. 😂

[@Kori-T]

The reason why crows are a symbol of death, is because they’re the only bird known to seek revenge on other animals and people who hurt their flock. Also a group of crows together are called a murder, idk how or why they’re called that, but shit is crazy!

[@Bette306]

No Ravens hold that spot 🦅🕷

[@Kori-T]

@@Bette306 here’s just my unpopular opinion, crows and ravens are basically the same bird, like first cousins.

[@Passion84GodAlways]

I used to have THE BIGGEST CRUSH on Brandon Lee 😍🥰 and was a heartbroken child when he passed away. 💔😔🥺😭

[@danavixen6274]

STILL remember to this day. I just knew he'd properly carry on his father's legacy. Didn't fathom he'd die just a year after making a name for himself in Rapid Fire. 😔🙏🏾❤🕊️

[@user-be7tc2bd6e]

@@danavixen6274 Rapid Fire is a good action flic. RIP: Brandon Lee

[@ronniearnold9165]

Love the 'Radio Raheem' shirt you are rocking! Bill Nun...R.I.P.

[@fahn22]

The original is one of my favorite movies. After they butchered part 2, I refused to watch any more sequels. Brandon Lee had such a bright career ahead of him, and I remember even as a kid, the news of his death was devastating to me. Side note: that's why I refused to watch the newer Point Break. Just, no. 🙅🏻‍♀️ Classics are called that for a reason. 😮‍💨

[@cobymcguire2598]

The same video clipped in twice at the end 😂 someone pranked my dude Tony

[@kmax1223]

I thought I was trippin, like what kinda vivid ass deja vu is this

[@bigtre311]

I loved Rapid Fire and Showdown in Lil Tokyo

[@6li8storm40]

The bar scene in Rapid Fire is one of my all-time favourite fight sequences.

[@losvortex10]

Tia Guerrera Shang Tsung and Dolph Lundgren Showdown was a good movie too😅

[@mikecolts21]

The outro coming up twice is legendary 😂🙌🏾

[@ronniearnold9165]

The Crow with Mark DeCascos fitted well with me being the Brandon Lee was a martial artist and Mark DeCascos was a martial artist. It suited the roll because how Brandon set the mark. It is like how Wesley Snipes set the mark as Blade. Few could replace him as the character! FEW!

[@devinrussell952]

Lil matrix double take at the end there 😂

[@gageabdul]

With it being a 'spirit of vengeance', they really could have made a new one; fresh story and everything 😅

[@Passion84GodAlways]

CHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIILE 😮‍💨 The ONLY reason I went to see it (opening weekend) was to support my girl FKA twigs! Thank GOD I didn't expect it to be good cuz it SHO WASN'T! 😩😫 1.5 saxs 🎷 out of 5 🎷🎷🎷🎷🎷

[@lorelailuna]

Same! Plus, I saw it in 4DX so it was fun but I had little to no expectations outside of supporting Twigs

[@danavixen6274]

​​@@lorelailunaI love her. But, NOPE! Heard it was BORING! Not even paying $5 to see something boring. The Forge is worth supporting guys! ❤

[@lsceo5932]

I have been saying this for the past 15 years. Either they are making a superhero movie or it's a remake. They have run out of ideas or they just aren't as accepting. You hit that nail right on the head Tony. Even the fact that they just remade Twister! I love the Movie reviews. And I usually agree with you about a good 85% of the time and I'm speaking about your saxophone ratings. I love Brandon Lee's movies. Showdown Little Tokyo was great. And as far as I'm playing in the crow I'm not going to even lie, I didn't even really think they could remake that. I really thought they probably would have just did some type of sequel of some sort where it goes to someone else but to try to do a remake you just can't because he already bought it and then on top of that to leave that legacy of being killed during the movie... That's just tough to overcome. But I hear what you reading was but I'm going to go check it out just to see it

[@sageslim1914]

The thumbnail 🤣

[@seechelleme]

I don't know if anyone commented this but... a group of crows is called a murder, also when you see a crow outside of its murder it's considered a bad omen.

[@gabriellehorace2289]

Man, I feel you.........30yrs ago!! 😳🤦🏽‍♀️. I love the Skarsgårds, they are an incredible acting family; Brandon Lee is still my favourite as The Crow, however.

[@Idealgentlemen_]

I hated this movie for the simple fact that they made Eric essentially a side character, the movie was focused on Shelly, which was pointless……it seemed rushed, no character development, and they seemed to fall in love after like what seemed like 2 days in the movie, even the villain didn’t make sense nor was it explained…..this was possibly one of the worst movies ever made

[@artisticnita]

I was about 9 or 10 when the original crow came out. I remember watching the movie when I was in my teens. I remember the crow TV series too. I think it only lasted one season.

[@Brahmabullz]

Tony dropped, I pulled up.

[@SpecialBeam]

Now that I think of it.. more often than not, whenever there's imagery of scarecrows, theres always a crow or two sitting on the arms. Almost like they want us to KNOW they know it ain't real. Like taunting us in a way. 😂😂

[@valzod3808]

I actually liked all 3 of Branden Lee's films. Showdown in lil Tokyo was kinda wierd though because he was an outsider to the Asian community but Dolph was all in. It didn't make alot of sense to me but it was entertaining

[@Bigromeo43]

Be liking his reviews b4 I even watch. That good.

[@waukeenphoenix4321]

Thought that was kid cudi at first glance at the thumbnail solid review Tony💪🏾

[@JBAnarch]

Rapid Fire AND Little Tokyo was a duo of pure underrated AMAZING!!! BTW!

[@rickeybrown9563]

A group of crows is called a murder and they are dealing with people murdered

[@Loveismyteacher]

Smart

[@michaelbullock8011]

Great movie review and I enjoyed it and I'm going to check it out and have a blessed day

[@jennifergoldson382]

I was not buying the love story in The Crow 2024; with all the romanticizing of drug use and drinking, it's a no for me. Brandon's other films are excellent. They don't make films like those anymore. I liked the second Crow film, City of Angels ( it had interesting elements). This new one had interesting elements, but they could have made better decisions that didn't drag the movie down. You can do a lot with The Crow Comic books, so why do they still want to chase the 1994 The Crow movie instead of telling an interesting new story using the elements of The Crow comic and other aspects to create something different than Crow 1994?

[@SirSuperFlyy]

Anyone remember pigeon man from Hey Arnold? Now he was dope! Wish he got his own movie lol

[@pattieciru5927]

I still remember watching crow as a youngin HELLA LONG AGO that shit stuck in my heart I loved it so gahdamn much. Idk if imma watch the new one

[@slipshot9074]

Well, after hearing nothing but bad things about it, I went and watched it anyways. I didn't think it was bad. It doesn't compare to the original. Still though, I think it was much better than the terrible sequels that came after it.

[@albodadon7285]

I seen it first day and it wasn't as bad as everybody saying I'm a Crow fan seen everyone but this was cool it wasn't too bad

[@asapolen]

Thank you for the reviews, Tony. 🔥🔥🔥

[@neenareadsalot7563]

“The Crow” (1994) was such a good movie!! When I heard about the remake, I KNEW I wouldn’t see it. “The Crow” introduced me to music that I still listen to now. “Big Empty” by Stone Temple Pilots is still in heavy rotation for me. Brandon Lee was finding his way, and I think he could have been a great action star. 🕊️

[@eqpayne]

Was this better than the sequels at least?

[@tinkalinks]

This is one of the wildest thumbnails Tony!😂❤

[@mundaneamazing]

I was gonna comment about why crows make sense but CLEARLY Tony got the memo. I am actually SO scared of pissing off a crow, they remember faces AND hold grudges, but they also can be friendly and will trade gifts for food. I think them being dark also adds to the goth aesthetic, though. And a group of crows is called "a murder".

[@paulbrown3rd531]

Great review, Tony. I will always like the original CROW movie from te 90's better. Brandon Lee is one of my favorite actors and it was a real tragedy to see his career cut short due to someone's negligence on the set. RAPID FIRE is my favorite movie with Braodon Lee. His work as the leading role, Jake Lo, was great both in acting and in screen fighting.

[@dicecreamman2003]

they let you see that live actually powered this one. his conviction to see her well is what strengthened him. he started out fighting for them to be together and ended up sacrificing his future for her and became stronger and more deadly for it. with Brandon he came out the grave a year later and then went straight to his apartment to remember things and take on the rage of love lost. this was a great superhero origin story

[@RichardmpayiTnway]

in Dragon he plays his father i loved that movie. But Anyone who has seen Dragon: The Bruce Lee Story will be aware that the Lees feared a family curse, and a metaphorical demon attacks Bruce throughout the film before finally turning its attention to his son. Dragon finished shooting several months before Brandon Lee€™s accident. Stranger still, at the time of his own death Bruce Lee was filming Game of Death, which would finally be released years later using original footage and substitute actors. Lee€™s character was an actor in the middle of shooting a movie and ends up getting shot in an on-set accident involving a prop gun.

[@fieryeurochick3194]

I recently learned a fun fact about the original movie. The crow was actually a raven. Apparently, ravens are easier to train. Who knew?!

[@telvamua6116]

😂😂 the crow speech at the end

[@cafeohlej]

The math at the beginning is mathing lol

[@riotd.r.8363]

Respectfully disagree on the establishment of Eric and Shelly's love, in this 2024 movie. They were together for what seemed like a few weeks and were just partying, getting high, and smashing. This is the love that defies death?

[@djstravels4828]

Tony is crazy 😂😂😂 we gone get yo corn

[@jusLonda]

I wonder how well this remake would hv done if they kept Jason Momoa

[@JXGold]

The Crow 2 was sabotaged by the studio. The original story was supposed to be about brothers iirc, they wanted to be as far apart as possible from the first one out of respect. Studio stepped in and said they wanted another film exactly like the first one. That's why Sarah came back, and it was trash. Every one after that was straight to DVD and also trash lol. RIP Brandon Lee.

[@MoFad3d]

A group of crows is called a murder.

[@hunterhansen79]

Yep, Tony. We're OLD!

[@oiat]

Legacy of Rage is the film that made me love Brandon Lee 😊

[@SpecialBeam]

I saw it opening weekend, and as someone who has NOT seen the original, I thought it was fun. Like in a "Fast and Furious 6 and later" kinda fun. Turn your brain off and enjoy. It's interesting to me that Tony liked the love aspect of it, I felt like they should have done more with it. Maybe I missed something, but.. like, he knew that girl for a month MAX. All this over a girl you only knew for a couple weeks???? Now to be fair, they did set up that he's got a bit of trauma he's dealing with, and they kinda imply that she was his first love.. like, I might have killed over my first real love too idk, I was down bad for her 😂 I did like all the action tho. He really IS just some guy, and they make that clear. Even towards the end, when they give him kind of a "power-up", he was still doing mostly regular ol stuff. I appreciate when movies do that.

[@GoukitoX]

Contrary to popular opinion, I actually liked this 2024 interaction. It was different, and I personally liked the extra R-rated material. Didn't realize it had done so poorly at the box office. I guess I'll be one of the only folks picking up the 4K Blu-ray if and when it gets released. The OPERA scene!! C'mon! That was worth the price of admission for me.

[@JTJnyce]

Showdown a little Tokyo was dope I love that movie. I also think it's because a group of them is called a murder of crows.

[@TWIZ31]

Hated the sequels, but loved the TV show

[@danavixen6274]

Right! The short lived show with Mark Dacascos was pretty good. It helped Mark seemed to respect the material and he knew Brandon personally!

[@whodissis1]

When the review is better than the whole movie 😆 man, I wish I coulda just fell asleep but I was awake for all of it n goddamn, a mess

[@cuteeb1]

I wasn't sure about this one. I'll stream it and check it out. (Like 👍🏼 111 😊)

[@jonathangaray8048]

The fact that she forgot she was looking for her friend till ol boy reminded her the friend was dead and they were just chilling at the crib when she knows they're after her was so stupid. I feel like even though they showed us them falling in love is was still shallow. We didn't get to see much of the love in the og but people knew and cared about them and their love which made it deeper.

[@KennethBattle-n2i]

I suffer with insomnia so I fell like this movie will help me sleep well many good nights!

[@snicole3610]

I liked the romance, but everything else was exactly ad you said. "Who's your manager? Why are doing this?"

[@kengray1663]

I was open to a remake, but wasn't surprised when they failed hard.

[@desergio54]

I actually like it. It's definitely not as good as the original, but seeing how they met and getting more into the loir of his powers was dope. Probably would have been better as a series. Check a book called, The Crow: Shattered hearts and broken Dreams. It's a tribute to James O'Obarr, I definitely think they referenced one of those stories.

[@teejayflash]

Will watch it when it hits streaming..Brandon Lee is the only Crow...ever

[@heavybre]

Coulda also called it the Magpie, yeah dumb name, I know, but those mfers can be vicious if you cross'em

[@corporatehippie5275]

I just recently watched the original crow on streaming and really enjoyed it. It was very "of it's time" without coming off as cheesy. Was looking fwd to catching the remake, but everyone says it sucks lol. I'll watch the new one when it comes to streaming.

[@ThaDutchess08]

I'm here yet again Tone! I kinda wanted to see it, but I'm more like I'll wait till it hits Peacock or Paramount 😅 and after watching this, I was correct! BUT Crows are Dark colored so it speaks to the Darkness, the mystique etc.. ain't nobody trippin on a piegion 😂 Have you thought about reviewing some of the re-realease they have coming out? Maybe some folks haven't seen or hadn't seen on the big screen?

[@BrokuStudios]

Imagine we got a closer adaptation of the graphic novel and it's more of a dark poem. Instead, we get this soft, action movie. We've truly lost the meaning of the original story. He's not a super hero. He's a man who lost everything and is in pain. A man who wants revenge on those who wronged him. He takes that revenge with ease, but the true hurdles are the moments of pain when he remembers his love for Shelley. That is his struggle. That is his story.

[@tarawalker7193]

The Turkey would be dope!

[@F4LL_4_NON3]

The thumbnail looks like juda from city of angels 👍🏾

[@losvortex10]

Like he said they could have changed the story because it's a good premise but no. they said let's remake it and have somebody try to fill the big shoes of Brandon Lee😮

[@ortiznikko]

That thumbnail 😂😂😂

[@TightMoneyGripp813]

The way Tony is breaking this down, I'd watch it still. When it pops up on streaming services, I'd make a weekend viewing of it 🤟🏾😤🤏🏾

[@drewworld1]

Never saw original so. I love the concept. Of new one. But I don’t know if I love someone that deep lol

[@cuz30001]

Preach leave dem classics alone

[@markdoe6118]

If you can find it Tony you should watch Legacy of Rage. It is one of Brandon's Hong Kong movies! I'm like you in that I only like the first Crow. All the sequels were bad.

[@Makumbi]

Tony, do you think I am dumb, why would you tell me about the crows twice? Oooooooooo am about to go crow all up in yo bizniss.

[@cuz30001]

They should of remade this into an animated series telling the story of the comic made by james obarr. The time period was set in the 1980s when gangs still romed the streets. Trust when i say animate the comic.

[@thedon1023]

I didn’t even know they remade this. I remember watching the first one which was good. That second one which I think was set in Detroit was not it.

[@salientfilm]

the pigeon !

[@cuteeb1]

👋🏼 Hi Lea 🎥

[@xamccormick]

Brandon Lee Was about to be Jason Bourne. He was about to be the biggest Action Star Fn Ever😢😢😢

[@russellgallien5449]

It was like John Wick, but if you watched him play with the dog for 45 minutes

[@cameronlee9753]

The Crow 2024 could've been a remake to city of Angels in my opinion. They didn't have to really remake the first film but we really didn't need an Eric Draven remake. No shade to Vincent Perez either he was good but The Crow city of angels is the one that needs a remake.

[@leahmerriam]

I’m so mad I paid 20 bucks for this before looking at reviews. I was too blinded by my love for the original and skarsgard that I made a horrible mistake.

[@shamainmccotry9713]

The crow is one of those movies i haven’t seen, wasn’t allowed to see anything but G rated growing up until i was like 28, so now I’m gone go back and watch the original. Why the crow 🐦‍⬛ i wanna know.

[@maxerinjames]

Trying to figure out what people classify as a remake. Is Spider-Man Homecoming a remake of 2002 Spider-Man? Both are just different adaptations of the comic to me. This is the comic. Only Brandon Lee's Crow has a last name. Like in the comics, this Eric did not have a last name. Unfortunate they still choose not to follow the comic story though

[@mawmawa4116]

Crows are hella petty !!!! they have a very good memory and will hire other crows into their revenge !!

[@boosterpack859]

I thought it was Kid Cudi in the thumbnail haha

[@RickymfP]

Yall cant tell Hollywood not to make remakes and sequels, when people don’t go see original movies. Go look at the box office. The top 10 grossing of the year, 9 are remake or sequel.

[@nightangel3578]

Skarsgard need a better agent. He shouldn't have even been offered this mess.

[@elijah1126]

I tried to watch the new crow and I didn’t like it. The original crow with Brandon Lee is one my favorite movies of all time! But I didn’t like any of the sequels

[@jakepinesett314]

I think a group of crows is called a murder of crows

[@JBAnarch]

I thought the creator wanted the reboot. James O'barr. I wonder how much say so they gave him. I wonder his opinion on the reboot. Honestly though I been over reboots for decades now. Felt like only a few years later each reboot was just flying out. Just terrible. I can not think of any reboots that weren't trash. Not one. The last time a reboot was good, was when Al Pacino did Scarface 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@user-gb2qv9cl3s]

There's no way you could top the original. Brandon Lee AND Ernie Hudson? I don't know why they bothered...

[@marcusmcgill4423]

Folks call this a remake of Brandon's film, but it's more of a different take on the graphic novel.
