"Since I’m not a fan of Luc Besson any more than I am of Guy Ritchie, I’ve avoided the Transporter franchise from the start. Sure its star Jason Statham has a to-kill-for bod, but then that’s part of the action hero job description. And compared to hot he-men with a wicked, up-for-anything gleam in their eye like the Governator or The Rock or Daniel Craig, well, Statham’s just a little too bland for my taste. He’s someone you’d take home to mom for the holidays, not blow in an airplane bathroom along the way, having to dodge dirty looks at baggage claim upon landing. Never mind.

A third installment is blatantly set up at the end of 2, itself a follow-up to the 2002 original, and chances are a slightly forgiving audience will welcome the promise of more. Maybe not of the terrible CGI, which makes an out-of-control airplane look like a toy being yanked around on a string, or of such sometimes laughable dialogue as “I’m going to blow you into tomorrow!” But such typical action-flick faux pas are a lot more pardonable when in the company of Brit Jason Statham, whose citizen-of-the-world-accented Martin is self-possessed, dryly funny, and just plain cool in his well-tailored duds and sparkling black Audi. Yeah, the car is ... " [More]

"This is one of those fun loving films. You just watch for fun and hang on for the ride. I really like the original film (Transporter) . This one was a bit far fethed but enjoyable. " [More]
