Goofs:
Revealing mistakes: When the paramedic stands up in the therapist's office, even before he gets hit by the bullet, you can see a small black hole on the side of his head, clearly showing where the CGI blood/bullet impact is supposed to be.

This movie is not for the faint of heart.
If you've watched the first Crank and enjoyed it, you will absolutely love this one. It pushes the boundaries the first one set to the absolute maximum. There are no lines this film does not cross, from outrageous public sex scenes to gore that almost rivals the Saw franchise. It will keep your heart pounding for the entire film's duration. It's one of the most hilarious, stylish and down-right insane films I have ever watched.
If you haven't watched the first Crank, I recommend watching it before you even think of watching this film. It'll give you some good background story and also prepare you for what you are about to see.
If you saw the first Crank and didn't like it... do not watch this movie. Multiply Crank by 1000 volts and you get this incredible sequel.
The Crank franchise is an acquired taste, and this stretches it even for fans.
