His character in this movie, in some ways, reminds me of his earlier turn in Snatch.

Count me as a Statham fan. I find him very charismatic on-screen and engaging. I certainly don't 'cast him solely as a head-banger. (In fact, a certain
non-head-banging sequence in Crank comes to mind...
)
Missed this in the theater...so am looking forward to the disc. I figured this film to act as sort of an expansion of his Italian Job role.
