Crank (2006)
Oct 3rd, 2006 by Ashley
I should never doubt my instinct about movies!
Ever since I watched the preview, I’ve been wanting to watch Crank. However, the chance that it’d turn out to be a horrible movie was pretty high, given its seemingly cliche storyline (one day you wake up, realize you’ve got poisoned and you’re dying.) and its low Yahoo!User rating. I kinda hesitated. But thanks to the schedule, we decided to watch The Guardian and Crank, and it turned out to be quite fun! Fun in a weird way. From the very begining, this film was very MTV-ish (but it’s not an MTV movie.) The music, the light and unrealistic scene were quite different from what we’re used to. Though it’s only 83 minutes, it seemed longer. It’s packed with so many twists that I thought “No way! It’s only been 40 minutes!” And the ending was definitely not Hollywood-like. I was still a bit shock. All in all, I enjoyed this movie very much, but I don’t think it’s a movie everyone would appreciate. So, viewers discretion advised.
* Forgot to mention one thing, Chev (Jason Statham)’s girlfriend Eve (Amy Smart) played Noel Crane’s gf Ruby in Felicity. So nice to see her. She’s cute.
