    • Quotes

      Chev Chelios: Do you think I've got 'cunt' written on my forehead?

      ["Cunt" appears on his forehead as he asks]

    • Crazy credits
      At the very end of the credits, we see "Crank" as if it was a retro video game. Chev shoots two henchmen, then he takes a needle containing drugs and goes into RAMPAGE mode and runs fast. He runs into another henchman who injects him with "The Bejing Cocktail", the camera zooms in on Chev's heart which explodes and blood splatters on the screen. And the words "Game Over" appears on the screen.
    • Alternate versions
      German FSK-16 version is cut for violence (97 seconds). Uncut version is rated "Not under 18".

    Stylish fun
    If Crank were to take itself seriously, it would be the most unpleasant movie ever. Thankfully, it's so over-the-top and so stylized that any chances of taking it seriously get immediately thrown out the window.

    What you're left with is an insane action movie that overloads your senses and keeps you watching for two reasons: One is because it's legitimately entertaining, and the other is out of curiosity of just what new GTA-level insanity will it do next.
