	Author	Review
United States	Jeannette Catsoulis The New York Times	"Crank: High Voltage, starring Jason Statham as a man with a machine instead of a heart, is boorish, bigoted and borderline pornographic"	NEG
United Kingdom	Helen O'Hara Empire	"[It is] endlessly entertaining and one of the funniest films of the year (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
United States	Frank Scheck The Hollywood Reporter	"What makes it all palatable is the comic lunacy injected into the proceedings, which often take on a decidedly surreal quality"	POS
United States	James Rocchi Common Sense Media	"Bringing Chev Chelios back may make sense financially, but it somewhat dilutes the hell-bent-for-madness lunacy of the original film."	NEG
United States	Duncan Bowles Den of Geek	"What matters is how well Statham tears up the screen and in that respect he is spectacular (…) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
