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 minutes of total escapism!!!

Proper film
I like my films that are fast paced and action all the way, I am not one for lots of chit chatting about what to do and what is happening. All I can say is that if you like fast, mental, guns, madness, extreme car chases mixed with a bit of sex, whilst still having a point to the madness then you will enjoy this film as I did. Its not a classic by any means but it keeps you watching it all the way through so a well worth film to watch. JandE

She tells WENN, "It was sexually liberating and really fun. It takes a lot of work to make it look easy. It's really awkward in the beginning but I... Read more
