Review: The Crow: Wicked Prayer
I’ve had my share of direct-to-dvd’s for this year, but this one, technically, is not one of them. It had a one week screening, but nevertheless, overall reviews are still the same. Bad news.
This time, I kinda dared myself to watch it anyways, maybe just for the laugh of the bad quality (and the download pipe was somewhat idle), but sadly, no such thing. It’s the usual boredom that sets in at the very start of the movie. Waiting for the stars to line-up is a tough job (for instance, Dennis Hopper, Tara Reid, Macy Gray with lotsa second rates also, like Edward Furlong and David Boreanaz) and doesn’t provide me the laughs I hoped for. The direction is heavily flashback-based, and the action is below par.
This is really it for me this year. No more of this shit (Sorry Wesley Snipes, I definitely will not review your just released DVD of The Marksman).4.
