Plot Summary

Crank is a relentless, adrenaline-fueled action thriller that pushes its premise to the absolute extreme. Professional hitman Chev Chelios (Jason Statham) wakes up to discover that he has been poisoned while unconscious. The toxin will kill him within an hour unless he keeps his adrenaline levels dangerously high.

With time rapidly running out, Chelios races through the streets of Los Angeles in a desperate fight against his own slowing heart. As chaos unfolds around him, he must settle unfinished business, confront those responsible for his condition, and find a way to say goodbye to his girlfriend—doing everything at full throttle and without restraint.

Every moment becomes a matter of survival as Chelios turns the entire city into his battleground, using shock, speed, and violence to keep himself alive just a little longer. Fast, brutal, and unapologetically outrageous, Crank delivers a high-voltage cinematic experience where the only rule is to never slow down—and the only question is whether Chelios can stay alive long enough to see the end.
