Movie: Crank
Despite a trailer with the promise of a solid action film – one with a simple, but workable premise – this movie turns out to be far more like a video game poorly brought to the big screen. Plot is lacking, dialogue is overly heavy with the kind of swearing that suggests the writers just weren’t trying. The cinematography is patchy and inconsistent, and there’s just too much gratuitous content to make this even worth recommending to die-hard Jason Statham fans. My low expectations weren’t met.
