    Who else is looking forward to seeing this? Opens tomorrow. Crank was awesome and from the trailer this one looks just as good. You've got to suspend reality when you watch these and just enjoy the action and the humor. I'll be checking this out this weekend.

    Crank was very mediocre imo; very little quality action scenes. I can deal with the far fetched premise, but it still was a little too out there, especially the end.

    Loved the first one, kicks the crap out of garbage like Live Free or Die Hard and all the other pg13 or toned down action movies that try to be serious when someone is fighting a jet plane with a truck.

    Who is the more diverse actor? That guy from Crank, Stiffler, or Joe Pesci? They are all so very talented.

    Stratham is awesome. I will definately be looking forward to this movie (almost typed release, but i understand the minds on the BBS). From Snatch to Crank, all really good quality tough guy (almost said "hard man", but again...) movies.

    my feeling exactly. i'm not watching something i'm supposed to believe, just something that's supposed to entertain.

    when was the last time pacino was believable in a movie?

    That's was one of the things I liked about the first one, that they actually let the main character die. Oh well, don't have high expecations, Stratham movies are kind of hit or miss for me, like some while other are just drivel.

    Saw this today. I have to say, since I was looking forward to it so much I was worried that it might not meet my expectations.

    And I am pleased to say, this movie delivered. I was smiling the whole time. Absolutely entertaining.

    I can't wait till Crank 3.
