Plot |
Frank is back as "The Transporter" except this time he's doing a friend a favor by being the personal driver of a young boy. Of course the boy happens to be the son of public official and his estranged wife. How can such an easy job go awry?

Pros |
Tons of action! If you like seeing Jason Statham kick but and drive like a maniac you will not be disappointed. In between all the action there is actually a little bit of a storyline and some humor. And it was nice to see that they were able to work the inspector from the original into this film even though this film takes place in Florida, not France. |
Cons |
A couple of the action scenes are so over-the-top that even the creators of James Bond movies would shake their heads. This movie is only 87 minutes long and I swear Stathan spends over 60 of it either kicking ass in fights in which he is normally greatly out-numbered or driving like a mad man; it does get old. And what's with the bad guys? Just how "bad" do they have to be portrayed before we get it? I felt sorry for Kate Nauta, most likely an attractive lady that was made to look as ugly as possible. |

Recommendation |
This is a must for all Jason Stathan fans and teenage boys. Even the afore mentioned Bond movies have more of a plot than this film I still thought it was fun. I'm a Stathan fan so you might want to consider this when you look at the rating; non Stathan fans will most likely want to stay away. |
