Crank
Statham is cool, lots of action, but the way the cinematography is done, pace of film, and non-stop action, I felt like I needed a valium afterwards.
Good flick though....

#4 Posted: 4/5/2011 1:47:03 PM both wer fun movies but I actually though Crank 2 was the better. like Jarrett said, "good for mindless action". also pretty funny in spots too with the same kind of nutty humor as his movie "Snatch".
"2" is on the EPIX HD channel today (tue april 5th) and tomarrow (april 6th). |

#7 Posted: 4/7/2011 12:51:51 PM Where is Epix channel? I have Directv but can't find it.
unfortunately I don't think DirecTV carries EXIP yet. not to worry, I'm sure Crank 2 will be on another DirectTV available channel soon

#10 Posted: 3/1/2012 4:08:16 PM Crank 2 is so over the top
The heart transplant
Shot out at the strip club
Sex at the track
Ron Jeremy Cameo
The Spice Girl on the Talk show (yeah don't ask me how I know that was a spice girl)
Electrocuting his balls
The head in the tank
I swear I have never seen a movie like this
And Rumor is there is a 3rd one in the works |

I don't think there is any such thing as a "BAD" Jason Statham action movie. he even at least half saved that Sylvester Stallone wreck "The Expendables". hopefully there will be a Crank 3 BUT I'm wondering WHAT the "your gonna die IF you don't do this" they will come up with after Adrenaline and High Voltage?

Just looked at that wikipedia page. I think I have seen almost every movie listed. His first two movies are still his best ones, liked The Bank Job as well. The rest of his flicks range from good to garbage.
