What We Think

This reboot of "The Crow" embraces nearly every modern woke trend, prioritizing identity over grit, and sanding off any sharp edges that once made it subversive. Fans seeking non-woke storytelling will likely find this version deeply sanitized.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Hyper Woke

What is this?

The 2024 reboot of "The Crow" takes significant liberties by swapping character genders and heavily focusing on identity themes over original narrative depth. In our view, this reboot feels more concerned with ticking representation boxes than delivering the gritty, character-driven storytelling that defined the original.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Hyper Woke

What is this?

Traditional masculinity and the original's grim themes are softened or reframed to fit a more modern, sensitive lens. Religion and family bonds are mostly background noise, while edgy counterculture is replaced with a sort of performative progressivism, as some viewers may interpret.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Hyper Woke

What is this?

Any dissent from the central worldview is sidelined or reduced to cartoonish antagonism. Classic themes of outsider justice and moral ambiguity are replaced by a more uniform, ideologically safe space where everyone essentially aligns on modern values.
