As to me, I loved Crank (I loved the1st part as well), because it is both interesting, funny and very extreme. The movie is amazing and I can’t think of any other movie to be that great. The pace is really mind-blowing, but the movie definitely has a couple of really disappointing moments, and I am about to tell you some words about them.

• it seems to me that this movie was made only to get money from people and that’s all. I mean it’s main aim is to get some commercial success and bring money to its creators;
• the music was awful and it didn’t seem to fit the “Crank” at all. The first film was much better;
• the movie is not very fast-paced it is hectic and chaotic;
• I didn’t like Amy Smarts to be involved in numerous sex scenes and her being almost naked half of the movie;
• some characters were absolutely needles in the movie and it seems to me that their main aim was to drag the time;
• the idea of Chev needing to recharge looks odd;
• the movie is not logical at all and it seems to have no plot at all;
• the ending brings nothing;
• the movie feels very shallow and simple;
• there is almost nothing new in the movie and it contains no message;
• it bears a strong resemblance to the first one.

So, if you are not a great fan of the first movie, I think there is no use for you to watch the second part.

The movie has everything to be a real adventurous hit: fast and bloody speed cars, violence, mind-blowing racing, really hot chicks, powerful men and a fantastic soundtrack. Fast and Furious has much in common with the original movie and it is even a bit better one.

Dom (Vin Diesel) and Letty (Michelle Rodriguez) are completely incredible and very attractive, they go on with their criminal and dangerous enterprises while Brian (Paul Walker) works for the FBI. Dom loses his beloved person and he tries his best and uses every opportunity to seek revenge on the killer.

The action scenes are incredible and completely mind-blowing, the one thing I like the most about them is music – it fits every thing perfectly and makes it even better and more interesting.

The one thing I dislike is sub characters, because they were neither bright nor interesting. But the movie deserves your attention it is a must see movie! Don’t miss!

However, I think this movie works not only because of the fun and exciting action scenes, and blistering humour, but because it looks realistic, logically correct and completely believable. Just have a look at the performance or listen to the dialogues -  they ARE natural. I love the theme of loyalty between friends – their relations are sincere and true, even if they are on opposite sides of the law. And I don’t care about the rest of the people who think that it is Vin Diesel name that made us watch the movie.

The film is easy to watch and to enjoy, it allows you to get some kind of aesthetic pleasure from watching, because it is full of everything: fantastic cars, mind-blowing racing, hot women and hot guys. The movie is all things spectacular actions. Even if you haven’t been expecting much from the movie you will definitely like it. To my mind it is even much better than the last few from the same series, also it is better then the last James bond movie and Transporter 3.

The plot and story are not stupid at all, they are even rather wit and challenging. The movie won’t get any awards or Oscars, but it will entertain you …

The Forbidden Kingdom is based on the Chinese novel named ‘Journey to the West’, almost all characters are taken from Chinese mythology. This movie survived 5 script rewritings.

What I was curious about: the meeting of two masters Jackie Chan and Jet Li! Actually, it was enough for me in order to buy a ticket. But, my general impression is not bad at all, not excellent, ’cause I am certainly respect martial arts, but I am not a very big fan. Everything was fine: the cinematography, some views were simply breathtaking, exemplary acting. Also, the movie has a lot of details that can be caught after a couple of viewings. The movie is full of humorous moments. Nice and worth watching!
