If you saw the original Crank chances are you probably didn't think they would make a sequel. I mean the movie ends with the main character Chev Chelios (Jason Statham) falling out of a helicopter miles above LA, hitting a moving car with enough force to bounce at least 10 feet in the air before coming back down hard on the pavement right in front of the camera. After few moments he blinks and you hear a faint heartbeat. Now there is no way a man could survive this, let alone be in any shape for another balls to the wall adventure, blazing a trail of destruction and chaos through the busy streets of downtown LA. Well if you thought that, then you don't know Hollywood that well.

After his near death experience Chev is picked up by the Chinese mafia. They nurse him back to health because they plan to harvest his organs. Turns out the chemical that was suppose to kill him in the original movie somehow gave him a damn near unstoppable heart, and had some other interesting side effects on the rest of his inner workings. Chev comes to briefly on the operating table to see his heart removed, and replaced with an artificial one designed to keep him alive long enough to collect the rest of his organs, including his naughty bits. He escapes, and the chase is on as Chev hunts down the man that is transporting his heart. In the original Chev had to do whatever he could to keep his adrenalin flowing to keep his heart pumping. Things like driving through a busy mall, killing people, and sexing up Eve (Amy Smart) his girlfriend. This time around Chev needs to basically shock himself in order to charge up the battery in his artificial heart. You can already guess what that means, and yes it does mean more sexing of Amy Smart.

The first movie had over the top action and a very silly plot, but it all worked. Mainly because the director, writers, and actors new it was the silliest thing ever and they embraced it. This looks no different, outside of the fact that the plot is sillier and the action is more over the top. I mean the trailer has him giving some guy a shotgun enema, and him basically getting jump started by a car. COME ON PEOPLE!!! 2009, F@CK YEAH!!!

So far all I've found for it is the red band trailer. Which is full of boobs, ass, f bombs, violence, and just awesomeness. It is no where near SFW, so I will just add the link to it. Next to Watchmen this looks like one of the best movies coming out this year. So far anyway.
