The script was boring, the plot was…boring. It was supposed to be like this fun, edgy thing and it wasn’t. They sold aesthetic, and for a time when that aesthetic was cool, this didn’t even come close to making it feel cool. I was a kid when this came out, and I saw it then and I didn’t enjoy it. I watched about half of it recently and I still found it boring and not entertaining.
It wasn’t good when it came out, why would it be good now? I understand this is an unpopular opinion, but it always wasn’t good.
Anything specific? I can overlook a lot of cinematic and technical issues in a film if the script and talent are good.

That’s what I was actually afraid of, thanks. I’m not the most critical guy about films, but I cannot abide a weak script.
I thought The Crow was universally loved
