This trailer on Break.com for Crank: High Voltage, starring the stubbly and bellicose Jason Statham, looks great—and really, really messes with your browser window. Every gunshot, explosion and jolt of electricity destroys a bit more of the canvas around the video frame. (At one point the whole screen, absurdly, does a cartwheel.) A good thing, too, because it distracts the viewer from the utter stupidity of the movie's plot. We won't bother explaining it, because we can't, but it's a sequel to Crank that picks up where the first movie ended.
