and one of my favourite films of all time, brilliant film, one that I'm not afraid to call a masterpiece

No question about it. I’d go as far as to call it one of the greatest films of any genre. It is just so compelling, dark, beautiful, heart-rendering, cool, poetic, unique, and brilliantly well-made and acted. Brandon Lee’s powerhouse performance alone is definitely the stuff of legends.

A bonafide classic.

Brandon Lee Was set to Explode with this film....

It would have made him a Superstar....

I have no doubt that had he not Died, He would have become An List Superstar, and I'm talking talking Just about Action movies, Like He would Have been Like Tom Cruise or Brad Pitt....

He would have been one of the biggest action stars ever Plus he would have been Starring A list Roles like Cruise and Pitt....

They Wrote The Matrix films and The role of Neo With Brandon Lee in mind....

The Crow is in my top 10 greatest action movies ever made....

Brandon Lee as Eric Draven/The Crow is IMO One of the most iconic roles and performances ever...

One of the greatest CBMs ever made

Can't argue with that. Probably wouldn't even argue if you left off the 'One of' part.

It is a good movie. Has a very gothic feel to it.

The Crow has its moments, but it's soooo campy and corny, and hard to take seriously. It definitely isn't a film that has held up well over time.
