I apologise, we feel bad, but there's no trailer available. ~Ed.
I saw this as part of a 24hr movie marathon and if a movie can keep your attention at 3am after 9hrs of movie watching it means its a really good film. Jason Statham is excellent as Chev and the story is fast-paced, interesting and funny all at the same time. Some excellent scenes with Amy Smart and you just want to see what happens to Chev in the end. I enjoyed it and want to see it again... perhaps it was my sleep deprived brain that made it appear better than it was but I doubt it.
This is not, in short, a film for anybody who appreciates the simpler virtues of logic, characterisation and narrative credibility. That said, Statham brings his usual hardnut conviction to his ludicrously named protagonist, while the pic contains what is easily the best car chase through a shopping mall scene since The Blues Brothers...
A Saw for the action crowd, this is an intense, stripped-down ride that goes places you’d never expect. Edgy and outrageous, it should get the fearless Statham some deserved attention...
The 2006 summer movie season went out with a reasonable bang courtesy of Crank, a jacked-up, unapologetically mindless bit of ADD-prescribed escapism that more or less delivers on a nifty premise...
For a movie premised on unrelenting action, Crank proves fatally turgid...
Videogamers who've been itching for "Grand Theft Auto: The Movie" can tide themselves over in the meantime with Crank, a down-and-dirty actioner that follows a rugged antihero trying to outrun death by keeping his adrenaline flowing...
