After the surprise box office success of the first film (probably most in part to the controversy). A sequel was quickly greenlit. The original plan seems to have been to make a completely different style film (in honor of Lee), but as usual the studio saw dollar signs and re-edits were made to make this look as much like the original as possible. In the process driving both the director and screenwriter into disowning the film and giving us what is essentially just a low rent pseudo remake/sequel. There are literally only two good things in this, a pretty nice explosion, and an insanely hilarious Thomas Jane freakout. Everything else in this including the rather terrible performance from Vincent Perez is utterly forgettable.

Basically, this is a more expensive remake of the first Crow film. There are good points to the film, one being the really cool Iggy Pop and excellent cinematography, but Perez as the dead avenger doesn't exude the same presence on-screen as his predecessor, Brandon Lee.

Where do I begin? I can't believe I wasted 1 hour of my life to this pitiful excuse for a movie. I know that sequels are never as good as the original, but this is an outstanding example of an attempt at sponging off of the success of a well made movie with a low-budget piece of crap. Bad acting. Bad direction. Bad lighting. Bad camera angels. Bad special effects. And a story that, though searching for originality, ends up being a copy-cat version of the original "The Crow" movie. This movie is a stain on Brandon Lee's memory. "The Crow" was his legacy. His greatest role. I will have to watch the original several dozen times to purge my mind of this insulting waste of film. Watch the original "The Crow." Avoid the sequel at all costs!

I would like to suggest that if given the option, people should see CoA, then The Crow, then Salvation later when it comes out. CoA is an excellent movie in its own right, when you compare it with its source, that being a comic book. It's source is not the original Crow. It's a different movie experience all together. M2c

I watched this movie a few years ago then I watched it again quite recently and I loved it. I've read quite a few things about people going on how Vincent Perez is trying to replace Brandon Lee. He isn't really. They play two totally different characters. Thus affecting how Ashe and Eric react differently when they are borough back in both films. They are two DIFFERENT people. Looking past this and actually looking at the movie I still love it even if it is a bit dodgy in places. All the actors did a great job in this film. I think had a directors cut of this film been done and it had not been so mulled by Miramax it could have done really well.
