    I saw Crank quite recently myself. I thought it was quick, action packed, and straight to the point. A nearly flawless action film. Although I could have used a little more nudity from that stupid girlfriend!

    I agree, Crank was great fun and action packed. Have heard there is to be a Crank 2 with Jason Statham starring again. Anyone know anymore on this??

    I'd be most curious to see how they pull that off.

    Soooo, you're interested in see how they pull off their cranks?
    It'll take a lot more than words and guns,
    A whole lot more than riches and muscle.

    The hands of the many must join as one.

    I'll tell you - for an all out action kind of flick - I just saw "Wanted" and it's now at the top of my "action film" list.

    Been looking on empire online.com (film mag site), they say Crank 2 starts right where Crank finished. Shooting was supposed to have started April this year, promises to be more violent, action packed and sexual than the first. Dont quote me on it though, have read stuff before from reliable source that never happens.
