Crank
We saw Crank this past weekend. Aside from it’s R rating, it’s not a movie for all people. The best way to describe it is as an American Hong Kong action flick. Really. The stylistic primitives are a dead ringer. I have a feeling most American audiences won’t like it, but I was laughing at most of the ‘gory’ action. It just fits the style, but a style Americans don’t really see much of. Quentin Tarantino alludes to this in his Kill Bill films, but that is still stylistically overwhelmed by his direction. Anyway, I enjoyed it.
