Crank

Someone rented Crank and so I watched it. It was a pretty fun film. It had this professional killer running around the city on one long coke trip for the whole film. He'd been poisoned, and the only way to stay alive was to keep his adrenalin high. So he did a whole lot of stuff. The violence was unusual and it was happy to throw in a sex scene or some relationship slapstick every now and then. And they shot it in that jumpy way that everyone seems to like these days. A bit Requiemish, or probably closer to Spun actually.

The other thing I liked was the way they used Google Earth to do a lot of their aerial motion shots. It was clever and worked well.

Tom just told me he thought it was a silly movie. He is a bit right of course. But I still had a good time watching it.
