The levels of insanity reached in Crank 2: High Voltage somehow outdo the first one, but as a result it loses any sense of cohesion which makes it a lot less enjoyable.
It's just as frenetic, but also slightly less funny and a lot more mean-spirited. Still there are plenty of great moments sprinkled throughout, even if it may have exhausted you by the end.
I also have to give credit to Jason Statham for just committing to the craziness of it all, and it looked like he really enjoyed his time on set.
I'll always appreciate the first one a lot more due to a far greater focus on the monofilament story it has, but I do respect Neveldine and Taylor's effort to just go for the most mental ideas possible.
