Crank. Is it any good?

Hedge · 17 Dec 2006 at 21:53

This film is due out on dvd soon and im thinking of renting it.

I loved the transporter films for the non stop action and the fact that they let me switch my brain off for a bit and just see lots of kick ass moves.

This film looks like something similar.

Has anyone here got any comments on it?

i really wanted to see it in the cinema... no luck, can't wait until the DVD though

awesome film i saw it at the pics, the action was sweet and it had some really funny bits in it as well. jason statham is the best action hero around atm.

Dave85 · 18 Dec 2006 at 12:20

the only film I have ever been in where everyone burst out laughin and cringed at some scenes and it was jam packed.

the action is great.

TerryWogan · 18 Dec 2006 at 12:30

Pure full on ridiculous entertainment. I thought it was ace.

Putty · 18 Dec 2006 at 13:01

Yep, mindless fun - loved it

Ev0 · 18 Dec 2006 at 22:09

As above, it was just what I wanted in a no brainer action flick, liked it a lot.

Was just the right length too.

Hedge · 10 Jan 2007 at 21:16

Just thought i would resurrect this thread to say that ive just watched it.

my opinion...

Quality film!

. really funny in places. And just none stop mindless action. Great stuff.

The bit in chinatown was proper cringeworthy, but hillarious at the same time.

Great . I recommend it highly

Aye , i was hunched up behind my knees hahaha. But at the same time it was shockingly funny. All i can say to anyone who watches this is...

Dont watch it with high expectations of a really clever action movie. Its not clever... But it is action packed, funny, and totally ridiculous

Jason Statham is really good in these roles. If he gets a film that is well written too, he will be even better

Robosapien · 10 Jan 2007 at 23:03

Started off well, got even more and more ridiculous, rubbish ending.

Worth a watch though.

Dark_Injection · 10 Jan 2007 at 23:25

It is god damn awful.

If anyone watches this and enjoys it, they need to get a new taste in films.

It was tacky, simplictic to the point of "why the hell am i watching this", and the ending was just shockingly bad.

Never again will i watch such a bad film.

kidloco · 11 Jan 2007 at 11:14

LOL oh well, i love all kinds of film, if your after a total no brainer then I thought Crank was hugely entertaining.
