Watched this tonight via a Screen X showing. Was certainly a lot better than I expected as always he kicks ass and has a good time doing it.
 
As recent Statham films go this was his best in a long time. Basically 'John Wick' but with another interesting back story.

First film I can think of that shows off the tech scams that have ran rampart for the last 10+ years.
 
Just got back, quite enjoyed it but do like a Statham film and this is along the same lines as Transporter etc. so knew I would enjoy it.
 
I saw this at the weekend, I agree with the above - it was an entertaining action movie. I like the general plot concept with the Beekeepers, that does have scope for more movies.
 
The acting from all of the other actors let it down. Only the old lady and Statham seemed to put any effort in for what it's worth. Great action, but everyone else felt like they were a B-movie character. I'd give it a 6/10.

FBI agent's mum just died? Not a single shred of emotion shown etc.

It's like the director was trying too hard to make it like a Korean style gritty violent action thriller, but only the Koreans are capable of such feats. Crank is about as ridiculous as Hollywood has ever gone and still kept everything enjoyable, inc the acting.
