The Crow Reboot Review &Fall Preview Hype Meter | ComicBook Nation

As a long-time comic book enthusiast who’s witnessed the rise and fall of countless superhero adaptations, I must say that the Fall TV and Movie schedule has me more excited than a kid on Christmas morning! The anticipation is palpable, especially with the much-awaited reboot of ‘The Crow’ starring Bill Skarsgård.


The team at ComicBook Nation takes a peek at the upcoming Fall TV and film lineups, expressing their excitement for some of the most eagerly awaited premieres! They also delve into the latest updates on the remake of The Crow, featuring Bill Skarsgard.

Expanding on the current situation of “Star Wars” following the cancellation of “The Acolyte,” as well as engaging in a discussion about the potential direction for Marvel’s “Blade” reboot.

The Crow Reboot Review

This is what ComicBook Nation host Kofi Outlaw had to say in his 2-star review of The Crow:

As a fan, I can honestly say that under the guidance of Rupert Sanders (Snow White and the Huntsman) and the dedicated performances by Bill Skarsgård and FKA Twigs, The Crow isn’t an outright disaster – it’s just a confusing blend of artistic ambition and graphic, brutal action-horror. It’s a film that pulsates with creative energy and emotional intensity, yet it struggles to coherently tell a compelling story. In essence, it’s a vibrant, living testament to passion, but also a listless, muddled attempt at cinematic storytelling.

…There’s a possibility that, despite its shortcomings, The Crow may eventually become a cult classic in the future. At least, this film offers a strong demonstration of Bill Skarsgard’s abilities as a leading actor (beyond his roles as peculiar creatures or villains). However, considering over a decade has passed since attempts to revive this franchise began, and given the wealth of talent involved, it seems ironic that the final product is merely average.
