Ned F i didn't like this movie becuase it is not so good. but i will watch it all but then i regret. please don't . Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 09/18/24 Full Review Juan M This could have been an excellent movie, were it not for the discontinuities in the plot. Right off the bat, we never find out why Professor Corvus wanted to kill Lawson in the first place during Mardi Gras Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 09/08/24 Full Review Audience Member Wow this movie is all kinds of awful. It’s only redeeming quality is the story and plot are interesting and you are kind of forced to stay with it to see how it wraps up. Cuba and Tom Berenger are good actors but look downright silly in this neither one seems like they’ve ever acted before. And Eric Stoltz went for high camp. I assume this is all the Directors fault. Yep, just looked up Rowdy Hereington’s biography - definitely chose the wrong profession!! Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 09/01/24 Full Review Bahad j The movie was a very exciting adventure from start to finish Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/06/24 Full Review Jelisije J This movie gets a 0% by critics......This is an entertaining well acted film that has a plot that makes sense which is more than I can say for half the movies the critics give 90% or more. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/13/24 Full Review jwcdood Watching A MURDER OF CROWS in 2023, it demonstrates itself to be an obviously hollow attempt at 1940s film noir with its screenplay/script, direction and acting coming off as a pretentious dress rehearsal with no functional chemistry whatsoever. After 40 minutes into it, I had to bail. The professional critics are entirely right about this one — 0% for sure. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 12/17/23 Full Review Read all reviews
