My Review-

I do not even know where to begin with this movie. I mean I watched the first and I somewhat enjoyed, but it did not need a sequel. It seems like those movie was made just for the hell of it because the first did well at the box office, but for me the movie was too over the top and outrageous, just like the first one which did not need to be done...again. At times this movie was so hard to follow, but it was not as bad as the room, but still it was all over the place, it is hard to believe that the critics liked this movie more than the audience did, it would seem with this time of film the critics would hate it, but that wasn't the case. Also its kind of sad that this was David Carradine's last film, which was a really bad choice seeing how amazing he was in the Kill Bill movie. The acting was just SO bad in the movie it's hard to believe some of these people were actually in some pretty decent movies from time to time, and why they would make another movie which is almost EXATCLY like the first one is beyond me. Another thing, I read a few days go that they might make another one, why wont this character just die already, I will admit I did enjoy the first one but 2 more to make a trilogy and people will probably go watch it to see how it all ends but for me I will watch it like I did the first two and wait for DVD or went it comes on HBO. One more thing I forgot the worst part in the whole movie well two parts. One Bai Ling gets hit by a car, and does a double back flip through the air, and some how LIVES! what the hell is up with that, it seems like no one can die in these movies, because, there is also an animated talking HEAD! In my opinon there does not need to be another Crank, one was enough.
