It's no definitive masterpiece but it's damn close.
Brendon Jones
It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

The title of this atrocity should have been "The Movie That Killed A Franchise"! Are you kidding me? One great movie - and then a pretty good sequel - and then a not so good, but still interesting second sequel - and then finally - this vile thing? REALLY??? Devolution at it's absolute worst...David Boreanaz as the arch villain in a Crow movie? That's about as logical as casting Jack Black as James Bond. Talk about attempting an "oil and water" mixture. Also, Tera Reid had absolutely no business being in a movie like this, after all - it's devoid of cheerleaders - and there are no Frat houses full of drunken National Lampoon extras. A genuine "Fish out of water" type of situation to be sure. The casting on this toilet flush must have been suggested by somebody who was deliberately bent on ruining a movie before it was even entirely off of the drawing board - no doubt a desperate act of revenge more gruesome than any Crow movie could ever have portrayed to begin with. At least somebody could have been merciful enough to have taught Danny Trejo how to do a half way decent native American dance for crying out loud - instead of looking as if he were attempting an Orangutan impersonation. This traffic accident was to the memory of Brandon Lee - as burning the U.S. flag is to the Veterans of Foreign Wars association.This film was not in keeping with the "Crow tradition", in that it was not at least a marginally well done, moody, atmospheric, eerie tale of an otherworldly instrument of karmatic payback - but was instead written as if it were a story made up by third graders over a cafeteria table at lunch. it was childish and silly - not moving and involving. I've seen deeper, more exciting Burger King commercials.Edward Furlong was actually creepy and passively interesting enough to have made a pretty good "Crow", but unfortunately he was far too bogged down by idiotic writing, poor direction, lousy stunt choreography, derivative costuming, horrible production values, and a sheepish budget to have effectively gotten any revision of the character properly off of the ground. A very sad thing. I think that he may have been able to go places with this character - had his creative vehicle been slightly better than a rusted out junker with four flat tires.The entire movie seemed like it was written and shot in a single afternoon. A real disappointment - and a bad way to end a running theme. The funding for this movie would have better been spent if it were used for building a Putt Putt golf course. To call this movie merely "silly", is to give it far too much credit.

Let's face it, Edward Furlong is not all that convincing as an action hero... that thought passed after Terminator 2.The story... had holes. The biggest is... this was set in a little town outside of a reservation... and our best story line is a gang of Satanists? I know for a fact that most histories of Native American tribes have plenty of reference to different spirits and demons...Okay, so that was not organic... what else? The acting... Most of the actors in this film that have any sort of name that is recognized have proved that they can act. We may not like them, we may not approve of all of their acting jobs, but they have proved at least a bit of skill in the field of acting. So why was the acting so bad? My only guess is the director... Isn't that the director's job... to get the best performance and contributions from all involved? What was the best part of this movie...? Well... if you are a fan of action movies... if you have watched and paid attention to them... you learn that a LOT can be done with camera work. The camera work in this movie, in the fight scenes at least, was brilliant... You know... as much as I appreciate Furlong and Boreanaz as actors, I would not really qualify either as a serious action star... but the camera work in this film made them look valid.Thanks for reading.

Many people loved The Crow 1 so much partly because it created an illusion, and good/evil were more clearly divided, conventional in a way. Wicked Prayer is different to that experience, rough and seems to make fun of the whole thing. It leaves you highly unsatisfied the first few times you see it, as contains hardly any believable action-scene which could let you enjoy more.My vote would have been 10 if it didn't accentuate the tribal theme a bit too much at some points. The actors are well-casted. This is not what you expect, but The Crow in quite a poor environment. I found the little side blows on demonstrations, naivety and how many people imagine evil nicely done.As with all such movies, it's about what flavor you search for at a certain point of time in your life. If you want a pleasant experience, you will be disappointed.

Like all fans of the original Crow movie, I've learned not to expect anything good out of the sequels. Despite what some people say, ALL of the sequels have been awful. But this one is the worst by far. I have nothing good to say about this movie. That's right, nothing. Here's why the movie is absolutely dreadful.1. Edward Furlong looks like an emo version of the Crow. Seriously, when he put on the make-up I almost laughed. At that point, I knew this movie was going to be dreadful. Just look at the pictures yourself. You might as well have Justin Timberlake play the Terminator.2. Throughout the movie I kept asking myself "Could this movie possibly get any more lame?". The answer every single time was a resounding "Yes, yes we can".3. While I definitely hated the bad guys and wanted them to perish, I wanted the same for the Crow. No seriously, I was hoping that the Edward Furlong Crow would die and that the police would kill off the bad guys instead. Tara Reid would have been a better Crow and Edward Furlong.4. Satan. Satan himself is portrayed in this movie. No really. That's the point of the movie. One of the main bad guys is trying to become Satan himself. This movie and portrayal of Satan would have been torture for Satan himself to watch. Once Satan's character entered the movie, I wanted to drink arsenic and just end it all.5. In this movie, the characters will do something incredibly stupid and then explain it afterwards. It's like the director had the characters do random evil acts and then rewrote the script every time they did something. It was like a "write as you go" type movie.Summary: I only watched this movie because I loved the first Crow movie. Don't do what I did. You won't get back that hour and a half of your life. This movie should never ever been made.
