Adrenaline packed action
On paper this film sounds rediculous but somehow it just works........actually it kicks ass!!!
Jason Stratham is great at what he does, a 21st century action hero, who is menacing but funny with it!!!
Crank does exactly what it says on the tin, a relentless, adrenaline packed movie where the action doesn't let up for a full 90 minutes, so don't be expecting an oscar worthy drama because that it ain't.
Very erratic editing and jumpy shooting add to the whole effect and keeps you transfixed as the lead manages to come up with increasingly inventive methods of keeping his ticker going!!!
I can fully understand why this film got the great reviews it did, because it never claims to be something its not.
Sit on the edge of your seat an enjoy 90 minu...
A pleasant surprise
After seeing some good reviews I decided to give this a go expecting a decent enough action flick. What I didn't expect was the most breathless, exciting and funny film of the year. Anyone expecting plot, characterisation or Oscar-worthy acting is going to leave disappointed, everyone else will have a field day.
The film opens with Statham waking up, hearing some bad news and kicking his t.v. in, we are then taken on a breakneck journey of ludicrous action, insane stunts, brilliant gags and possibly the funniest sex scene in cinema history.
I don't want to spoil the fun so just see it.
