Critics Consensus

Dreary and poorly paced, this reimagining of The Crow doesn't have enough personality or pulse to merit the resurrection.

This does not really justify itself beyond being full of new actors.

The Nightly (AU)

Lots of movies are “bad” but still interesting but earnest-to-a-fault The Crow is not that.

Rated: 2/5

The Age (Australia)

Whether anyone involved with this new Crow genuinely wanted to tell this story is something I’m unable to judge. But even if the film is a purely cynical cash-grab, idealised love and rage against authority aren’t the worst products to be selling.

Rated: 2.5/5

Screen Realm

The film’s biggest flaw is its dullness. The supernatural revenge narrative is bogged down by sluggish pacing, lacking the energy and momentum needed to drive engagement.

Rated: 2/5

John Daniel Tangalin

The Cinema Spot

If there is one thing to take away from this film, it’s the fact that pure belief in love is a strength that permits a person to break boundaries, and I think that’s righteous storytelling in and of itself.

Rated: 3.5/5

It is all just rather underwhelming and unnecessary.
