Crank is so poor, average at best.

Transporter 1 and 2 are much better and believe me that's not saying much.

you are joking aren't you?Crank is fantastic and endlessly rewatchable. The german BD gets a lot of use in my player.i'd have this over some of the shit you class as awesome any day Brad

"Blade Runner" #cough#

I think we can safely say Blade Runner would beat Crank on almost "any" Film List you care to come up

.

Sure the action in Crank is pretty good but boy it's stinks otherwise. The story is awful (it's not even B Movie good). I lied the action isn't that good, bland really. The sex scene was funny though.

Bugger, looks like Lionsgate had the trailer pulled, ditto for all of the Youtube links. Here's a working link.

Thanks Lucky Stars. It looks good but I doubt I'll bother, the first looked ace in the trailer but turned out to be pretty poor.

It's High Resolution btw (640x480 to anything lower than 1280x720) not High Definition (1280x720 or higher).

Oops my bad

Didn't enjoy the first part?

It was fairly enjoyable but not as good as most were saying. Sure the action was pretty good but nothing hugely special either and yet again it committed the usual sin with films that focus solely on action (cue most Jackie Chan films), it had no f'ing plot to speak of.

The Transporter 2 is loads better than Part 1, sure the plot won't win awards but at least it has one. Put it this way, I'm glad I downloaded Crank.

p.s - The scene when he shags his missus in public was funny though.

Crank os meant to be a no brainer. Good fun and it delivers.

I'm sorry but I thought Transporter 2 was just poor (apart from the firehose fight). 1 and 3 were where excellent entertainment whereas part 2 was totally lazy and just ok.

Transporter 1 is fun. I'll give it that. Shu Qi is never boring to watch.

Thankfully they dropped the dumb American accent in Part 2. I've not seen 3.

Give it a go if you appreciated the first one as a bit of solid entertainment and you won't be disappointed

I found Transporter 2 to be really poor, it had loads of bad CGI scenes and felt like an dumber film than either Transporter 1 or Crank.

P.S. Crank was made to resemble a dumb action video game.

Thats the clean poster, the real ones has another attatched to his nipple (hence the exposed chest). Too hardcore for normal people I guess
