Explain why this is Crank II? The plot seems nothing like the other, AND, it actually has a GOOD actor (Giamatti) in it. Nothing against Jason Statham (whom I really dig), but he's not the strongest thespian. Giamatti actually holds a master's degree in Fine Arts with a major in drama from Yale. He's sooooo underrated. . .all because of that stupid movie he did where he got turned blue.

Giamatti hasn't been underrated for years.
This is Crank II because of the over the top tone.

::nod:: I understand now. Paul Giamatti's brother is also a highly talented actor, Yale grad, AND a professional studio bassist. He's recorded with some pretty impressive artists: Doug Pettibone (Lucinda Williams, Tracy Chapman), Lionel Cole (Mariah Carey, Robert Downey Jr.), Michael Hakes (Edgar Winter), Otis Hayes (Ice-T), Irvin Kramer (Ray Charles), James Montgomery, Will Ray (Hellecasters), XJM Jazz Trio, David McKelvey, Shawn Nourse (Dwight Yoakum), Skip Edwards (Michelle Shocked), Chris Lawrence (The Paladins), Carl Byron (Anne McCue), Percussionist George Martin (Earth, Wind and Fire), drummer Mike Bennett (Chick Chorea), Rebel Soul Band (Winner of Relix Magazine's 2004 Jam Off!), and The Williamstown Cabaret.
But yeah, uber hyper tone for the promoting of this film.
