Crank 2 was just insane fun, thats all it is. Insanse-escapism that you would watch along with your buddies while toking it or getting drunk. Honestly, what are you expecting?
I will say that Crank 2 does make Statham look like a huge superstar, especially the last shot.

I enjoyed the first Crank but Crank 2 looked like it was just going to perpetuate stupid lazy stereotypes. David Carradine as an old Asian dude…how original…not. Maybe we should bring blackface back too.

after seeing 17 Again i think that Zac Efron might become the next big icon by which we define “male hotness”

Damn NATO and there handgun specs !!!

I’m a 1911 fanatic. And plus, .45 ACP is fairly cheap compared to some other rounds since it’s a common round like the other “common rounds” like 9mm and .22lr. The less common a round, the more expensive it’ll be. Plus there have been rumblings for many years that NATO might go back to .45ACP as the standard handgun round, meaning prices will really drop… I’ll stick with it.

The round I use for self defense have been tested to penetrate 17″ into ballistics gelletan expanding to .71 caliber. It’s MORE than adequate.

Ken invest in a 44 Automag,,,

It’s actually even slower than that, lol, but it’s 230 grains (very high bullet weight), so it’s like being hit with a hammer, haha. OK, I’ll shut up now…

Kens describing a 45 caliber for those that don’t recognise there ballistics…

Such a slow projectile,,, 45′s I mean,,,,

How did this turn into Gun Rant ???

@stephen, now you can buy a rifle, congrats. lol

Turning 21 was a big day for me, that day I went out and bought myself my first handgun. Screw drinking, alcohol can’t spit out 230grains of lead and copper at 900 fps…

I thought the first Crank movie was garbage so I immediately threw-up when news of a sequel surfaced.
I am glad my instincts were on. Vindication is delightful.

I saw Dragonball this weekend and … gulp … I liked it. Sue me.

This list of future movies lacks something … Oh I know … any chance of me seeing any of them.

I am happy to see a Seth Rogen film not doing well. Maybe studios will start thinking twice about giving such a raging pothead access to their cash.

And Crank still have over 60% at Rottentomatoes. I think there’s no saving it now, RT is officially an invalid source for movie reviews and ratings… Oh well *deletes RT from favorites* It’s Screenrant or nothing now, lol.

Zac stole the thunder this weekend. Lol, Statham we all can’t wait for the next Crank saga,,,

“Guns” what an amazing title for a film about stealing money from the cia. The creative juices were flowing that day in the writers room.

Wtf with a film that trains women to kill there boyfriends.
“Nice” message hollywood,,, ?

I can understand why Crank didn’t do well. I saw it and it was disgusting.

Gary,

If it follows the 80′s buddy comedy path then I’m sure there will be jokes.

It’s pitched as a Lethal Weapon/ 48 Hours type movie.

Is Guns a Comedy?
Sure sounds like it.
