For the grief we sometimes give Jason Statham, let’s face it: he knows what his strengths are, he plays to them, and he delivers exactly what fans expect each time out. He makes what is often very hard look pretty easy. And while critics may not usually take kindly to his movies, there’s one actor out there giving him due props: James McAvoy.
Den Of Geek closed their recent interview with McAvoy—who has previously praised Statham calling him “the most physically impressive actor I’ve ever seen”—by asking him what his favorite movie by the action star was. And the answer is pretty great:
Crank, because he got the line, “Does it look like I’ve got c*nt written on my head?” and that is the best line I’ve ever heard in a film.
