A man is killed with his son and once again a raven brings his soul back to earth to allow him to avenge the killers. Inevitable sequel of one of the most successful films of recent years. The protagonist Vincent Perez is not fully convincing in the role of the "black avenger" and the frenetic editing, music video style, with excessive use of special effects and fantasy settings, makes the film lose the dark and intriguing atmospheres that the first chapter had instead, turning it into a sort of generic action-horror. Born and mythologized as a "cursed film" "The Crow" was intended, and should remain, as a "unique" film, to which, both for the story and for the well-known events, no sequel should or could be given; but when there is the possibility of making some money, no one backs down... The advice is to rewatch the first one!
