Summary: One Of The Best Action Films
Comment: Crank
This film dared to answer the question of whether or not an action film would work if it only had action. This movie doesn't have much dialogue and a very simplistic story. Instead it focuses on delivering literally non-stop action through the entire movie with almost no stopping.
The movie starts with Chev Chelios, your main character, watching a videotape revealing that he has been with injected with something and is going to die. In a fit of rage he begins his reign of terror. From that point on he begins his search for the men who poisoned him with what would become know through the movie as the Chinese ****. After a call to his doctor, Chev learns that the only way to slow his death is to keep his adrenaline flowing. If he slows down for anything he will begin to get dizzy and his vision will become distorted.
The movie is amazing to watch. There are tons of gunfights, fighting, and car chases in this movie. When I say it's non-stop action, it really is. The movie stays different enough to keep it entertaining. You won't be watching fight scene after fight scene. Maybe you'll see him snort drugs off of the floor or have sex with his girlfriend on the side of the street. Anything he can do to keep his adrenaline up will work for him.
The movie has a pretty simple story. There aren't many twists and turns. The way the story is done is well done with the combination of action and the fact that Chev is crazy and it is very humorous. I loved the way the ending was done.
The extras are done in a very interesting way. It's called Cranked Out mode. You play through the movie with commentary and the movie will stop to show extras. This is a cool idea and keeps up the fast-paced idea of the movie.
If you are a fan of action films then you have to pick this one up. Even if you aren't a fan of these films, you need to pick this one up. I can't give it five stars for being a bit too simplistic, but this is the closest to five stars as you can get.

Summary: A ride into Crank
Comment: There are many ways to keep your adrenaline up; and Chev Chelios is going to need every one of them to stay alive... What they actually meant is that there are many excuses to do wacky things, and Chev Chelios have got the one to do all kinds of crap.
Now, this is not a mental movie. This is an outrageous ride through the last hours of life of an unlikely person, a professional hit man (and the unlikely events of such). Chev is not following any conventions, nor is he taking prisoners; once he hits the gas of his vehicle, the action starts and won't stop.
This is a quite fun movie to watch. Now, weather or not exists some Chinese synthetic poison, that thing sure delivers an excuse to somehow glue the unexplainable and/or ridiculous action sequences that happen thru LA. The direction was also quite refreshing: it was like the guy actually believed the story and tried to jump us into the adrenaline driven last moments of Chev Chelios. We also get a break at the elevator scene, were we are explained for the bits of the movie we did not get. Stathan's acting is decent, and I like the Ricky Verona character and his unintended comic relief liners.
There is a ton of action on this movie: cops chase Chev thru a mall, he gets in a bar fight, breaks havoc in an hospital, runs thru the street with a hard-on, shoots hit men, has sex with his girlfriend, gets into a car chase-shooting situation, etc.
Now, there's been some controversy about the China Town scene, were good-old Chev has sex with his girlfriend in front of a lot of Chinese people, a scene that breaks today's feminism standards on movies. Well, I guess there's where your sense of humor must be harnessed. And if you don't have any left, let me tell you that if you tear your clothes for Chev having consensual sex with his girlfriend at a public place, but you do not utter a word about him armored-robbing medicines from a hospital, well, then your hypocrisy gauges must be re-calibrated.
It is a great movie for action fans.

Summary: Crank
Comment: Crank is a fast breathtaking movie which attracks the viewer without break. Statham gets into the absurdest situations, sometimes with a lot of suspense and sometimes with a funny outgoing.
It really is a great film that I can highly recommend.
