I am not against remakes, some are fantastic. Some comic characters get rebooted too often though, such as Spider Man, and while i loved The Batman, it was too close to Snyderverse and Nolan's. So a fresh take on The Crow.....well it couldn't be any worse than the sequels right? I love the original, it might be my most quoted film ever. Bill Skarsgard is solid in this, as is the action & gore....the plot however is awful. There is no heart, there is no love, no romance. Eric & Shelly are not lovable lovers here, they are junkies and soulless. This is a mean spirited film in all the wrong ways but it thinks it is speaking to people. Should have just either been a Crow sequel since it is not a true remake, and just give new characters, or it should not have been a Crow film period. It felt like John Wick meets Constantine only not good, this should have just been a vigilante film, it still might have been awful but atleast it would have been bloody awful.
