o filme é descrito como pura adrenalina....
ADD é attention deficit disorder, como mencionado pelo Edgar, e quando pessoas com ADD comem açúcar, they go wild. ADHD = attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, ou algo assim, praticamente a mesma coisa.
Os filmes em questão são os filmes Crank e Crank High Voltage e os diretores são o Neveldine e Taylor. Se vocês soubesse usar o Google direito, vcs teriam descoberto o filme. ;) Encontrei o trecho acima dado pelo Luis no link abaixo (do Gerard Butler).
How sugar influences ADHD is one of those controversial areas in medicine. There are two sides to the debate. On one side, there is the official medical establishment that claims numerous scientific studies show that children do not react to sugar and that sugar does not play a role in ADHD. On the other side, there are all the mothers who have personally witnessed that when they give their children sugar, within a few minutes, their children are bouncing off the walls.

Discussion
In other words, the film was of no intellectual worth at all, only serving to entertain and put ADD sufferers on an emotional high, like sugar. Not sure of the proper Portuguese term for this or I would post an official answer. Have at it, colleagues.
