Solemplex To me, this movie is perfection.

BootDigest Such a frustrating disappointment

Humaira Grant It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

Philippa All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

adonis98-743-186503 Professional assassin Chev Chelios learns his rival has injected him with a poison that will kill him if his heart rate drops. Crank has some over the top scenes and a terrible ending but it still elevates from Jason Statham's amazing talent persona in the main role that make for a heart pounding and action packed film that keeps audiences at the edge of their seats. There's some terrific car sequences like in The Transporter movies and one sex scene that was pretty insane between Jason Statham and Amy Smart. The film's plot is not perfect tho, there's some over the top scenes that even for me a big Statham fan were a little too big at times but overall this was a great film. (8/10)

chimera3 My title for this review pretty much says it all. I don't know how I became acquainted with this gritty gem, but I must say that I am glad that I got to knowing it. When I first got into this, I really didn't know what to make of it because I was not that used to many of Jason Statham's movies. The movies of his that I did watch before this ("Ghosts of Mars" and "War," just to name a couple) were not anything to write home about. This, on the other hand, is.In my opinion, this is like a lost episode of "Mission Impossible." Why? Well, the home movie that Chev Chelios views contains details about what happened to him. Then he consults his doctor friend to figure out how to stay alive. Throughout the movie, he keeps in close contact with the doctor all the while fighting off the villains and spending some time with his girlfriend. As stated, it almost reads like "Mission Impossible" in some unique way not known to man.Let's not forget some of the dialogue that gets thrown around. When my brother and I first watched this, we were rolling on the floor laughing. The one-liners are memorable. Granted this movie would never get any awards (most action movies almost never do), it is definitely good for a barrel of laughs. Jason's reputation as an action junkie definitely shows here and it is definitely something to write home about. If you're having a bad day and feel like punching something, watch this movie for a bit of inspiration.

yashrajs536 Crank is a film all about Survival Our hero "Jason Statham" played it very well.This film has got a funny Statham with his trademark in films "brutal action sequences" the action was not good as "The Transporter" but we can understand as it is concentrated more on Survival so I agree with that.But don't get me wrong the action was good at its place as in a Crank film it is expected to.Apart from this the acting comedy was good and "Amy Smart" the lead role actress fully suits as a co-star to Statham.The Supporting actors were good and the direction is also done very well.It has got 7.0/10 on IMDb and it deserves it fully.Seeing Statham in brutally but funny was a good experience for us (Statham fans) I hope this franchise continues to make sequels.

xphenomx4 This movie is unrealistic, but it has some new original ideas. It cannot be taken seriously, but it's not boring, it's entertaining and worth watching. Russians don't produce such movies.The moment when a killer tries to shoot his girl and she doesn't notice anything is funny and odd. Liked this moment.It looks sure like GTA series.People who like risk should like it. There are people who like risk and I am one of them.The main actor good fits the role. I think they could make a serious movie, which would have success.The script looks like amateur one, the direction and acting looks professional like we see in Hollywood films.
