Revealing mistake: When there is the quick zoom-in on Pestilence, you can tell they cut between to a different shot, as the skull logo on the barrel behind him goes from being sideways to right behind him.
Revealing mistake: When the man gets whacked by the fence in the very beginning, you can see it comes nowhere near actually hitting him.
Revealing mistake: You can tell the spears Lucifer throws at the crow are already stuck in as they supposedly hit him.
Continuity mistake: When Jimmy is getting ready to propose, in the shot where he pets his dog, you can see in the first shot from in front he is not moving, yet in the next shot he is walking and leaning towards the dog.
Luc Crash: What happens to an angel that loses his wings?
Lola Byrne: He falls.
Trivia: The original script for this fourth entry in the series was titled "The Crow: Lazarus." It was about a wannabe rapper (who goes by the stage-name "Lazarus") who is murdered in a drive-by, and his journey to piece together the mystery of who set him up to be killed. The film was intended to be the first movie in the series with an African America lead, and controversial rapper Eminem was intended to play the villain. After the project fell apart, the script was hastily re-written to be (very) loosely based around a 2000 novel ("Wicked Prayer") inspired by the series, and the budget was drastically slashed, resulting in this film.

Answer: As I understand it, it all had to do with a spat between the director of the original Crow movie (Alex Proyas, who had "approval" of all the subsequent Crow movies) the producer of the Crow movie franchise, Jeff Most, and Miramax. Miramax eventually caved in favor of the producer and it was made into a "non-Crow entity" when Miramax reportedly signed Eminem to play the bad guy.
