YMMV / The Crow: Salvation

Go To

  • Big-Lipped Alligator Moment: The angel statue on top of Lauren's tombstone crying Tears of Blood.
  • Designated Villain: Even though the conspiracy was limited to just six corrupt policemen and their leader's secretary, the film still has Alex kill nearly every police officer that he encounters, without there being any indication at all that they were corrupt and not just doing their jobs by trying to stop someone who, from their point-of-view, was a maniac Cop Killer who was wrecking a strip club, tearing up the streets in a hijacked Corvette, etc. This admittedly does get brought up, albeit rather offhandedly, during Captain Book's Breaking Speech.
    Captain Book: You come in here so full of righteous indignation, but what have you got to be so righteous about, huh? How many innocent people did you leave dead back there?
    Alex: I had no choice! You sent them!
    Captain Book: Bullshit. You're a killer, that's all you are. Just a clown with a bird and a rising death toll.
  • Special Effects Failure: The CGI has not aged well, especially when it comes to Alex's crow.
  • Squick:
    • Alex peeling the melted mask and burnt skin off of his face after Waking Up at the Morgue.
    • Alex slowly pulling a big, jagged piece of glass out of his hand after punching through the door to Peter's office.
  • Surprisingly Improved Sequel: Barely. While a lot of reviewers admitted that it was better than The Crow: City of Angels, they still found it to be a middling (at best) and unnecessary-feeling follow-up to the original 1994 film.
