Common ground in both: hitman and revenge

The same two preoccupations: assassin, and drugs
The difference: Critics rated this one higher still

Both keep coming back to the same thing: assassin

One thread runs through both: shootout

Both are built on the same subject: revenge
The difference: Leans harder into drama than Crank does

Kinetic and tense in the same breath

The same preoccupation in both: hitman

The same mix in both: grit, then relentlessness

Kinetic action in both cases
The difference: Easier on the tension than Crank

Thriller with a pulse of tension, in both cases

Both lean on grit more than on crime
The difference: Made in the 2020s, in a different era of the craft
