Move over, Vin Diesel, because The Transporter, Hong Kong action veteran Corey Yuen's English-language directorial debut, is revving up to steal your thunder. As the other top-billed action star to emerge in 2002, British hunk Jason Statham--previously seen in Snatch, Ghosts of Mars, and The One--plays a hard-driving courier for well-heeled underworld clients. He follows simple rules: (1) Stick to the deal; (2) Don't ask names; and (3) Don't look in the packages he transports. All's well until he violates rule 3, discovering a Chinese beauty (Qi Shu) in the trunk of his tricked-out BMW, and foiling a deadly plot to smuggle Chinese slaves through the port of Marseilles. The first hour is ass-kickin' fun, and the stuntwork is impressive throughout, even as the plot degenerates into a predictable series of bone-breaking showdowns. Statham boasts an appealing combination of brains and brawn, suggesting the suave versatility of a promising career. Coproduced by action auteur Luc Besson and filmed on dazzling French locations, The Transporter is an action fan's delight. --Jeff Shannon

- It's on Blu-ray!This movie really brought the action genre back during a time when when the movie biz was catering to tweens and their love paper-thin plotlined romatic comedy garbage.
This movie put a bicycle pedal on it's foot and kicked the box office in the throat! So the weak story and cheesey lines coupled with great fights and car chases are the reasons I really enjoy this one! When I'm in the mood to see a car chase and some hand to hand combat this has always been an enjoyable ride.

- Jason Rocks in this roleA new Bondish franchise in the making. This flick is almost a parody of them, with great action scenes, the comradie of a villian, and a highly charismatic performance from Jason Statham. Steathem is ripped and flexible, scary tough, even though the most violent scenes are almost cartoonish at times. Decent storyline. What I liked most was his role, the good guy bad guy. In fact, he would be perfect as the next Bond (if they go back to the old style script), as the last two put out were serious flops ... Read More

- Action For The Action SeekerThere is romance in this movie. But this is not the movie to watch for romance. Their is a story in this movie. But this is not the movie to watch for a story. Their is intrigue in this movie. But this is not the movie to watch for intrigue. Their is action in this movie and plenty of it. This movie has action done perfectly. The choreography is great. Jason Stratham as Frank Martin is excitement personified. One fight scene after another mixed with bullets, bombs and car chases. If one took the time ... Read More

- 2.5 stars out of 4The Transporter:
Reasonably enjoyable, if completely forgettable, The Transporter rides on the charm of lead Jason Statham and delivers pretty much what could be expected from its bare-bones plot.
Rating:
- Seen worseWell this was entertaining, you can't deny that, and in various parts of the film there were some subtle moments between the action sequences.
It only just merits 3 stars for me. Jason Statham is not a great actor, but as Frank he does this part as well as I've seen him do anything. The actor who played the French Police Inspector was by far the best thing on the screen.
So its certainly a 'high-octane' thriller, and in places it doesn't take itself entirely seriously (which ... Read More
