    The Crow - Salvation

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Mar 27, 2001 | 1 out of 1 found this The Crow: Salvation (2000) review helpful

    The 3rd entry in the Crow series does justice to the cult-classic original, and takes a few liberties with the now-familiar premise of love, death, and revenge from beyond the grave.Eric Mabius plays Alex Corvis, a man put to death for the crime of m...urdering his girlfriend, Lauren Randall (Jodi Lyn O'Keefe). However, he's innocent of the crime, and his sentence was a set up. The restorative power of the Crow awakens the dead Alex Corvis...his face now scarred by the electric chair in which he was executed. One by one, he hunts down the ones behind the murder, and the conspiracy, helped by Erin Randall (Kirsten Dunst), the sister of his deceased girlfriend.Eric Mabius sets a different tone from his predecessors (Vincent Perez, and the late Brandon Lee), by portraying a dead man who takes some real joy in the use of his restorative powers. Appropriate, since his character is just 21 years of age. His performance is often subtle, yet very moving, and it fits the nature of his character. Kirsten Dunst's character isn't given the greatest dialogue, but she makes good use of it, turning in another good performance. Genre vets William Atherton, Dale Midkiff and Fred Ward all turn in strong performances, as well as being visible to fans of science fiction and horror. "Nash Bridges" and "Halloween H2O" alum, Jodi Lyn O'Keefe, is wonderful in her handful of scenes, and will leave you wanting more.The film has a wonderfully dark, artsy atmosphere thanks to the work of director Bharat Nalluri, who makes good use of a small budget. The eerie scoring of Marco Beltrami sets a wonderful tone throughout the film, and Like the first two entries in the series, "Salvation" benefits from its powerful Soundtrack, featuring Filter, Kid Rock, Stabbing Westward, Hole, Rob Zombie, and many more. The music helps set the tone of the film, and each song fits perfectly into the scenes in which it is placed.All in all, "The Crow - Salvation" is a VERY strong film. Its only weaknesses are some occasionally hokey dialogue, and a potentially confusing climax. The script could have used a couple more rewrites to iron out these difficulties, but nonetheless, "Salvation" is a well-paced, suspenseful, atmospheric ride. Well worth your 90 minutes!

    i went to rent this the first day it came out right after school on the 20th because ive been waiting to see this for a long time...ive been a fan of the crow since the comic books and this movie is the best.. the story line was good the cast was goo...d and they mixed this movie up.. because it was kind of a mystery/thriller.. and eric mabius was a good crow. id dont see why they didnt release it in theatres. dimension should be ashamed because it would have been a hit in the box office.... and dmx should not be in the next one!!!!!!!! i dont want a hip hop influence on the crow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    The movie was pretty good.

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Aug 30, 2003

    The movie was good. This movie had really graphic violence which sometimes bothered me a little bit. The special features are not that great. The documentaries are like 5 minutes except for the bird one. It is like 10 minutes. The picture is goo...d. Sound is good. The movie is pretty good. Just rent it though in my opinion. But if you want the whole series buy this but I say just stick to the original. I have not seen the second one. I hear mixed reviews about that movie. I hope wicked prayer turns out to be really good. Read more Less

    The Crow at its best!

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Jul 7, 2002

    The Crow: Salvation is a really good movie with Eric Mabius as Alex Corvis who is framed and wrongfully executed for the murder of his girlfriend, Lauren Randall (Jodi Lyn O' Keefe). After he is executed, he returns from the dead to get revenge on th...e cops who murdered Lauren. He then meets Lauren's younger sister Erin (Kirsten Dunst) who helps him out and tries to prove to everyone that Eric is innocent. It would've been great if Brandon Lee starred in it. This is a must see! Read more Less

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Nov 3, 2001

    ok well i liked this movie alot more then alot of other movies it has alot of good things about it but it also has alot of things that could have been better but just by watching it i knew it wasnt for every one it didnt have the same gothic thrill o...f the first crow but i did like that they stayed true to the calling card of the crow but they screwed up the crow can only see the truth near the ending he saw lies and well he could have remembered that he can only see the truth but its still a good movie its not the best but its good and true fans will buy it anyway but for the people who just like the crow rent it before u buy Read more Less

    Great Save!!!!!

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Jul 29, 2001

    After The Crow: City Of Angels, I thought that this one would have been even more disappointing but it really is an excellent addition in The Crow collection. With superbly choreographed action scenes, brutal violence, fantastic performances by Kirst...en Dunst and Eric Mabius, The Crow: Salvation proves that some sequels can be surprisingly entertaining.
