Fun movie. I enjoyed his creative means of keeping his heart pumping.

I loved the movie but I don't know why they're making a sequel. No that I wouldn't enjoy it but anyone who watched this movie would realize why it would be rediculous for a sequel to be made.

it sounds like a good movie, too bad he later ruined his career with awful dungeonsiege based film...

I love Jason Stathom, and I like non-stop action movies (on that note: all praise Shoot 'Em Up! Sorry, had to say it)... but for some reason, I never saw this. I have no idea why, it looks awesome, from the premise to what people have told me about it to that poster up there, with all the needles in the heart. It's on the list now, hopefully I can get to it soon.

Ya, this is one of the greats. It went up in my hall of fame right next to Snatch and Lock, stock & two smoking barrels... This one you must see.

I fully agree that Transporter 2 blew big chunks all over my love for Statham. But I'll always have the first movie. There was no badass movie moment like skating around on oil on a pair of bicycle pedals kicking bitches in the face. Booyah. Plus, that BMW gave me wood. The Audi of the sequel gave me herpes.

How wide was the release on this one. I don't think it even played in theatres around my neck of the woods. I hadn't even heard of it until it hit DVD. It is definetly a great addition to anyone's collection, but I would have loved to have seen it on the big screen.

Would have been better if it had been less sloppy and juvenile.

My main problem is that for once it was not the trailer that didn't give all the crazy thing he would do to keep his heart pumping but the movie reviews (now why did I get the idea of looking at reviews for a movie about name "crank" who is about a guy trying to get as much adrenaline into his body is beyond me)

Great movie. But does it deserve a sequel? No. Sequeling (yes I made that word up)this movie is gonna be a huge mistake because, like Transporter, you really need to pass the high standards the original gave me. And we all know that Transporter 2 sucked horribly. So I'm still staying optimistic but I don't have high hopes for Crank 2.

I thought Transporter 2 was better.

Crank is such an awesome movie. For some reason, most of the people I know were extremely hard on it. I guess trying to be a little different is unacceptable.

I really got to watch this movie sometime, it sounds awesome. Who comes up with these ideas anyway?

Me and my friends joked about this movie for awhile, running around yelling "CRANK!!!" and doing retarding stuff all over the place (dive rolls, fake fly kicks) but then one of my ... friends.... started actually hitting people and that joke died. Still, this movie looks kickass!

This movie is awesome!

I saw it a while back and i was amazed. First half an hour bored me but after that it was so fun
