MyTube: CRANK'D


I wasn't sure what to make of "Crank" from the trailer, but these short clips up on YouTube and one super violent one (finally we are seeing a return to good hard R rated action films) up on IGN.com have caught my attention.

Jason Statham has done a really good job of picking fun action flicks to star in over the past 3-4 years. Although "Crank" is being done by a rookie music video turn film director duo, I think the concept is really strong, and it looks to be another solid addition to Statham's filmography.

Also, the movie co-stars the guy who played "Pedro" in Napoleon Dynamite. He looks to be playing a male prostitute in the movie, although that is just speculation based on the wardrobe he has on in these clips.
