The crow 1/6 scale review12/31/2022 And Brandon Lee's performance is very good on top of that. Granted, the people he kills are scumbags, but that is what he's doing. So you're always fully aware of Eric's motivations and it sort of humanizes the character despite him going, pretty much, on a one-night killing spree. ![]() Every couple of scenes he'll have a flashback to a moment where he was alive and with his fiancee. While this movie is violent, not nearly the most violent film I've ever seen, they never once let you forget why Eric Draven is doing what he's doing. Each bucket of blood completely tearing away at the film's, supposed, emotional core. This is one one of my complaints I have, in general, with revenge films, and that is the fact that they let the ultra-violent approach get in the way of why the main character is doing what they're doing.

And I'm not particularly proud of myself for waiting so long to watch this movie, because it's a really damn good film. ![]() Obviously, throughout the years, there would be instances where I'd see the film on TV and I'd watch parts of it, but never from beginning to end. As far as I can tell, yesterday was the first time I've actually seen this film.
