Synopsis:
Chev Chelios has been poisoned in his sleep and has only an hour to live. As it turns out, Chev is a hit man who freelances for a major West Coast crime syndicate. And a run of the mill job the night before that was supposed to be like any other hit went unexpectedly awry: Chev let his target go in an effort to quit the professional killing business and start a new life with his girlfriend Eve. Now, Chev must keep moving, literally, to stay alive. The only way to prolong the poison from stopping his heart is to keep his adrenaline flowing. As the clock ticks, Chelios cuts a swath through the streets of Los Angeles, wreaking havoc on those who dare stand in his way. He must rescue Eve from danger, stay two steps ahead of his nemeses as they try to eliminate him and search for an antidote to save his own life.

Review:
This is one of my favorite movies and Jason Statham is one of my favorite actors. It's fast paced, action-packed, and riddled with sexy women, of course. Statham knows how to pick his roles and how to really make them his own. He makes this freelance hit man rugged, crude, demanding, witty, but a sweetheart to his lady. There isn't a whole lot to say because then I'll start giving stuff away. To simply put it, if you're looking for blood, humor, fighting, and sex all in one movie; here you go.

Critics Rating: 6/10
My Rating: 8/10

Jason Statham is a good fighter and he was in another movie with Jet Li - forgot the name and that was a better movie than crank lol

this movie was interesting but has a very crappy ending

he fell from like 35,000 feet in the sky - helicopters don't usually go that high because it is colder and oxygen is much lighter - he makes a call to his Girlfriend and then falls on a car, crushes it, bounces back up, comes back down on his face, blinks, and movie is over

very unrealistic ending lol - other than that it was good - i have the movie

Chester from Linkin Park was in the movie as one of the bad guys lol

if he fell from that high his body would have crushed because he would be coming down at around 300 miles per hour lol and he wouldn't have bounced that high and have his body not splatter over everyone else lol

Well there's Snatch and Lock stock and two smoking barrels and there's another one I can't remember the name of. Why not search him on IMDB?
