Crank
Filed under C - DVD Movie ClubSo ridiculous and over-the-top, I’m immediately giving this film 4 flames out of 5 because it kept me so entertained. Jason Statham has been poisoned, but for whatever reason (I guess because a movie has to be at least 90 minutes to count as a movie) his adrenaline postpones the effects of this particular poison. As long as he keeps his glands releasing adrenaline, he won’t pass out and go into cardiac arrest. Statham’s character uses a plethora of techniques to keep his heart pumping while he tracks down the bloke who poisoned him to take revenge, including daredevil stunts, having sex in public, and burning himself on purpose.
