Editorial Review:
Amazon.com
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

don't break the rules.......2007-06-20
The Transporter is Jason Statham's first big solo role in a movie, and it is a success with the followups of Transporter 2, Crank, and the anticipated upcoming film "War", where he fights one on one against Jet Li. Jason has participated in several films before Transporter in somewhat lesser roles such as "The One" and "The Italian Job", but the Transporter finally lets this man shine - and he brings a character to the screen - Frank Martin - who is intelligent, skillful, strong and one downright cool guy.
The movie has a good and promising beginning, showing off the cool factor of Frank Martin immediately. Followed quickly by an intense car chase scene, the movie never lets up after that - whether it be action or suspense. The story is not too interesting, but it is put together well. Frank discovers that a package he is transporting is carrying a live body inside. Frank's "tough-guy attitude" is worn down and he breaks his own rule by opening the package. The receiver of the package is no dummy, and realizes that Frank broke the rules and has his car destroyed. Frank, fortunately absent from his car during the explosion, seeks revenge but ends up with company along the way by accident - the girl inside the package. From here the story begins to take off as Frank becomes entangled in the situation all the more.
While there isn't a tremendouns amount of action, the spacing of action works well enough. The final 20 minutes are huge, easily containing the best scenes in the movie. I especially liked the fights in the bus garage and the final highway truck scene which reminded me very much of the truck scene from "Raider of the Lost Ark".
Transporter is a great movie for Jason Statham. I really enjoy this guy, and see a good future for him. His martial art skills are truly entertaining, as is his stunts and acting. This is an hour and half of just great relax entertainment.
The Transporter in Blu-ray: Action, Suspense, Romance and Fast Cars!.......2007-05-29
I loved this movie! The story was new and creative! If you like action movies and actor Jason Statham, you'll love this movie. Filmed in the French Riviera!
Video-Blu-ray: This movie enjoys a good transfer-not perfect- but good! You still see some video noise and image grain. Overall, Just slightly better than the SD in term of details with extra grain.
Audio: simply impressive!
Bottom line: You can't go wrong with this one! Action, suspense, romance and fast car chases. If the image grain bothers you, try the SD version-it's not as grainy.
The Transporter.......2007-05-09
Totally wonderful film. Tons of action , but none of is unbelievable (this is NOT Spiderman, thank God). I am personally very attached to the location, in and around Nice, which I visit often. Statham is very cool and low key; Shu Qi is totally delicious. Her English is to die for. The French Commissaire is just wonderful. The driving action (this from a pretty crazy driver) is very satisfying. Luc Besson for ever!! As good as the best of James Bond...
Could be the dumbest movie ever..........2007-04-17
This could be the dumbest movie ever made (and that's a bold statement to make when one considers that "Underworld" also exists). Sadly, unlike "Underworld" there is no leather clad Kate Beckinsale to drool over. Instead, we are treated to a movie that could easily be confused for a map of the human DNA (but a human with an extra chromosome).
Jason Statham, so likable in "Snatch", "Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels" and "The Italian Job" is thoroughly wasted in this flick. When he's not busy escaping from his tricked out house, driving fast whilst looking cool and beating up on clichéd Euro trash delivers lines such as "Rule #1. Never change the deal" and is expected to act with a straight face when he's the recipient of this type of drivel - "You're always complaining, except when we make love. Then you say nothing.". Thankfully, the one thing Stetham is great at is keeping a straight face. But you won't. Not if you have a brain, that is.
All action with a story included.......2007-04-17
I went into watching this movie with no knowledge of what it was about. I ended up in the end of it loving it. This movie is an "all action" flick with a story included. Actually it isn't just one story, it is a couple of them. The stunts in this movie and the special effects is outstanding. If you like action flicks, you will love this one. I recommend this movie to anyone that loves action flicks and is a Jason Stantham fan as well. BTW, he does have his shirt off in a couple of scenes in this one.

Transporter 2 knows what its audience wants and--like its title character--it delivers. This is a movie that has not only a fight choreographer but also a car stunt choreographer; a movie in which a female assassin wears nothing but a bra and panties because, presumably, additional clothing would be too cumbersome; a movie in which crashing through a concrete wall in order to leap over a four-lane street will not even rumple the hood of the hero's car; a movie in which a drunken supermodel, after her advances are chastely and gently rebuffed by the hero, says "Thanks for the respect--that's what I needed most"; a movie, in short, for those who liked the first Transporter but found it too subdued and character-driven. Jason Statham (The Italian Job) reprises his role as Frank Martin, a perhaps overly diligent chauffer who will break bones if his duty is impeded. The sheer glee with which Transporter 2 casts aside logic, probability, and the laws of physics is infectious. If the sequence in which Frank flips his car upside-down in order to detach the bomb attached to his undercarriage doesn't reduce you to intoxicated giggles, well...you're watching the wrong movie. Transporter 2 is utterly shameless, unstoppably ridiculous, and completely enjoyable. Also featuring Amber Valetta (Hitch), Jason Flemyng (Snatch), and Matthew Modine. --Bret Fetzer
Description

Now retired from his chosen profession of moving dangerous goods with no questions asked, he makes a living driving for a wealthy family in Miami, Florida. But when their young son is abducted, Frank must use his battle-tested combat skills to save the boy and thwart the kidnapper's nefarious master plan.

still transporting some fun.......2007-07-02
Jason Statham returns again as the cool transporter, this time involved in a less dangerous transporting business - the driver for a wealthy and famous Miami family. The action and choreography are still as cool as the beautiful scenes of Miami, but the characters and CGI useage hurt this sequal just a tad, thus making it slightly less entertaining than the first Transporter.
So on the positive note, Jason Statham is still wonderful in this sequal, fun to watch, and just down right cool to say the least. The action scenes are fun, and there is still some martial arts to please. The story is inetersting - at times - and the cinematogrpahy of beautiful Miami makes one want to starting earning the bucks to live in such a gorgeous place.
On the down side, the charcaters - especially the villains - are not nearly as enjoyable as the first film. The boss is rather average, but its his ridiculously skinny girl, who's always in the heat of action, that is somewhat distracting and not in a pleasant manner, despite her skimpy outfits. The CGI, which was rarely used in the 1st film, is more abundant this time, and is very obvious when used. Some of the action scenes are so wild, only CGI could be used to execute them. Unfortunately, they look too fake at times, especially they airplane which just happens to be the climax scene of the film. It was cool to see Frank (Jason Statham) and the bad guy fight it out inside a plane that was doing loopies, but it also ment no cool choreography for this final fight. Fortunately, there are some other scenes in the film that show off Corey Yuen's great choreographing.
Overall, a good action film that will succed in action entertainment, but don't expect a "great" action film. Jason Statham is the best part of Transporter 2, the rest is average. 3-1/2 stars overall.
Continues the High Action from the Transporter.......2007-05-13
Relax and enjoy the action. Some parts are strange, but good action in general.
This sequal is an ok one........2007-04-17
I really liked the first movie in this series. The second one I liked, but didn't like as much as the first one. This sequel just kept to one story about a little boy that was kidnapped. This movie still holds the action of the first, but I don't think is quiet as strong as the first one. I am a person that does like sequels and likes most, but this one isn't as strong. If you are a Jason Statham fan and you like the action in movies, then I recommend this one. Remember that this sequel doesn't have the "complexity" of the first one.
Completely idiotic, and completely enjoyable.......2007-03-26
If the first Transporter film was a moderate guilty pleasure, then it's sequel is a bona-fide one at that. Jason Statham returns as Frank Martin, an expert driver who is on a different sort of job these days. As a favor, he's escorting the son of a wealthy couple (Matthew Modine, Amber Valletta) who soon becomes the target of a supplier (Alessandro Gassman) who has a dangerous virus at his disposal. Transporter 2 features even less character development this time around, not to mention even more unbelievable physics and some ridiculous action scenes involving Frank and his car to boot. Not to mention a female assassin (Kate Nauta) who frequently works in her bra and panties. Yeah, but despite what all the film has going against it, Transporter 2 manages to be enjoyable throughout it's running time even though a majority of it is completely idiotic. This is because of Statham's scowly charisma, as well as the fact that nothing about this film is taken seriously. All in all, if you enjoyed the first film, chances are that you'll probably dig this.
Bad. Really, really bad.......2007-03-13
The fetching Mrs. Brew wanted to see this one, but she was busy one night so I watched it with my teen son. When she returned, she was disappointed that we watched it without her. My son told her, "Don't sweat it mom, it was just really bad acting and explosions."
'Nuff said.

I love these movies. Great action, Good Plot, Ok acting. All around a good Moive set. B+
bad disc made for unhappy gift.......2007-04-11
i gave this as a gift, but it turns out that the transporter disc would not read 3 chapters. the transporter 2 disc worked fine.
Intense Rush!.......2007-03-08
If you like speeding cars, gun fights, and lots and lots of action, this is the movie for you! The action never stops!
Very Pleased with The Transporter Collection.......2007-01-12
The Transporter Collection arrived very quickly during the busy Holiday season and was a big hit when opened and viewed immediately. Thanks Amazon for the great gift.
Martial arts action at it's best!.......2007-01-11
In The Transporter 1 + 2 the stunts are out of this world. Just remember it is an ACTION MOVIE... it takes fight scenes, firepower and character beyond the real world. Jason Statham is a great actor and he is also a highly skilled martial artist. You will also enjoy the adorable Taiwanese actress/model, Shu Qi. This movie is a must have for any action movie fan and a real man's movie. VERY ENTERTAINING!

The action and choreography are still as cool as the beautiful scenes of Miami, but the characters and CGI useage hurt this sequal just a tad, thus making it slightly less entertaining than the first Transporter.
So on the positive note, Jason Statham is still wonderful in this sequal, fun to watch, and just down right cool to say the least. The action scenes are fun, and there is still some martial arts to please. The story is inetersting - at times - and the cinematogrpahy of beautiful Miami makes one want to starting earning the bucks to live in such a gorgeous place.
On the down side, the charcaters - especially the villains - are not nearly as enjoyable as the first film. The boss is rather average, but its his ridiculously skinny girl, who's always in the heat of action, that is somewhat distracting and not in a pleasant manner, despite her skimpy outfits. The CGI, which was rarely used in the 1st film, is more abundant this time, and is very obvious when used. Some of the action scenes are so wild, only CGI could be used to execute them. Unfortunately, they look too fake at times, especially they airplane which just happens to be the climax scene of the film. It was cool to see Frank (Jason Statham) and the bad guy fight it out inside a plane that was doing loopies, but it also ment no cool choreography for this final fight. Fortunately, there are some other scenes in the film that show off Corey Yuen's great choreographing.
Overall, a good action film that will succed in action entertainment, but don't expect a "great" action film. Jason Statham is the best part of Transporter 2, the rest is average. 3-1/2 stars overall.
Continues the High Action from the Transporter.......2007-05-13
Relax and enjoy the action. Some parts are strange, but good action in general.
This sequal is an ok one........2007-04-17
I really liked the first movie in this series. The second one I liked, but didn't like as much as the first one. This sequel just kept to one story about a little boy that was kidnapped. This movie still holds the action of the first, but I don't think is quiet as strong as the first one. I am a person that does like sequels and likes most, but this one isn't as strong. If you are a Jason Statham fan and you like the action in movies, then I recommend this one. Remember that this sequel doesn't have the "complexity" of the first one.
Completely idiotic, and completely enjoyable.......2007-03-26
If the first Transporter film was a moderate guilty pleasure, then it's sequel is a bona-fide one at that. Jason Statham returns as Frank Martin, an expert driver who is on a different sort of job these days. As a favor, he's escorting the son of a wealthy couple (Matthew Modine, Amber Valletta) who soon becomes the target of a supplier (Alessandro Gassman) who has a dangerous virus at his disposal. Transporter 2 features even less character development this time around, not to mention even more unbelievable physics and some ridiculous action scenes involving Frank and his car to boot. Not to mention a female assassin (Kate Nauta) who frequently works in her bra and panties. Yeah, but despite what all the film has going against it, Transporter 2 manages to be enjoyable throughout it's running time even though a majority of it is completely idiotic. This is because of Statham's scowly charisma, as well as the fact that nothing about this film is taken seriously. All in all, if you enjoyed the first film, chances are that you'll probably dig this.
Bad. Really, really bad.......2007-03-13
The fetching Mrs. Brew wanted to see this one, but she was busy one night so I watched it with my teen son. When she returned, she was disappointed that we watched it without her. My son told her, "Don't sweat it mom, it was just really bad acting and explosions."
'Nuff said.

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

don't break the rules.......2007-06-20
The Transporter is Jason Statham's first big solo role in a movie, and it is a success with the followups of Transporter 2, Crank, and the anticipated upcoming film "War", where he fights one on one against Jet Li. Jason has participated in several films before Transporter in somewhat lesser roles such as "The One" and "The Italian Job", but the Transporter finally lets this man shine - and he brings a character to the screen - Frank Martin - who is intelligent, skillful, strong and one downright cool guy.
The movie has a good and promising beginning, showing off the cool factor of Frank Martin immediately. Followed quickly by an intense car chase scene, the movie never lets up after that - whether it be action or suspense. The story is not too interesting, but it is put together well. Frank discovers that a package he is transporting is carrying a live body inside. Frank's "tough-guy attitude" is worn down and he breaks his own rule by opening the package. The receiver of the package is no dummy, and realizes that Frank broke the rules and has his car destroyed. Frank, fortunately absent from his car during the explosion, seeks revenge but ends up with company along the way by accident - the girl inside the package. From here the story begins to take off as Frank becomes entangled in the situation all the more.
While there isn't a tremendouns amount of action, the spacing of action works well enough. The final 20 minutes are huge, easily containing the best scenes in the movie. I especially liked the fights in the bus garage and the final highway truck scene which reminded me very much of the truck scene from "Raider of the Lost Ark".
Transporter is a great movie for Jason Statham. I really enjoy this guy, and see a good future for him. His martial art skills are truly entertaining, as is his stunts and acting. This is an hour and half of just great relax entertainment.
The Transporter in Blu-ray: Action, Suspense, Romance and Fast Cars!.......2007-05-29
I loved this movie! The story was new and creative! If you like action movies and actor Jason Statham, you'll love this movie. Filmed in the French Riviera!
Video-Blu-ray: This movie enjoys a good transfer-not perfect- but good! You still see some video noise and image grain. Overall, Just slightly better than the SD in term of details with extra grain.
Audio: simply impressive!
Bottom line: You can't go wrong with this one! Action, suspense, romance and fast car chases. If the image grain bothers you, try the SD version-it's not as grainy.
The Transporter.......2007-05-09
Totally wonderful film. Tons of action , but none of is unbelievable (this is NOT Spiderman, thank God). I am personally very attached to the location, in and around Nice, which I visit often. Statham is very cool and low key; Shu Qi is totally delicious. Her English is to die for. The French Commissaire is just wonderful. The driving action (this from a pretty crazy driver) is very satisfying. Luc Besson for ever!! As good as the best of James Bond...
Could be the dumbest movie ever..........2007-04-17
This could be the dumbest movie ever made (and that's a bold statement to make when one considers that "Underworld" also exists). Sadly, unlike "Underworld" there is no leather clad Kate Beckinsale to drool over. Instead, we are treated to a movie that could easily be confused for a map of the human DNA (but a human with an extra chromosome).
Jason Statham, so likable in "Snatch", "Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels" and "The Italian Job" is thoroughly wasted in this flick. When he's not busy escaping from his tricked out house, driving fast whilst looking cool and beating up on clichéd Euro trash delivers lines such as "Rule #1. Never change the deal" and is expected to act with a straight face when he's the recipient of this type of drivel - "You're always complaining, except when we make love. Then you say nothing.". Thankfully, the one thing Stetham is great at is keeping a straight face. But you won't. Not if you have a brain, that is.
All action with a story included.......2007-04-17
I went into watching this movie with no knowledge of what it was about. I ended up in the end of it loving it. This movie is an "all action" flick with a story included. Actually it isn't just one story, it is a couple of them. The stunts in this movie and the special effects is outstanding. If you like action flicks, you will love this one. I recommend this movie to anyone that loves action flicks and is a Jason Stantham fan as well. BTW, he does have his shirt off in a couple of scenes in this one.

Transporter 2 knows what its audience wants and--like its title character--it delivers. This is a movie that has not only a fight choreographer but also a car stunt choreographer; a movie in which a female assassin wears nothing but a bra and panties because, presumably, additional clothing would be too cumbersome; a movie in which crashing through a concrete wall in order to leap over a four-lane street will not even rumple the hood of the hero's car; a movie in which a drunken supermodel, after her advances are chastely and gently rebuffed by the hero, says "Thanks for the respect--that's what I needed most"; a movie, in short, for those who liked the first Transporter but found it too subdued and character-driven. Jason Statham (The Italian Job) reprises his role as Frank Martin, a perhaps overly diligent chauffer who will break bones if his duty is impeded. The sheer glee with which Transporter 2 casts aside logic, probability, and the laws of physics is infectious. If the sequence in which Frank flips his car upside-down in order to detach the bomb attached to his undercarriage doesn't reduce you to intoxicated giggles, well...you're watching the wrong movie. Transporter 2 is utterly shameless, unstoppably ridiculous, and completely enjoyable. Also featuring Amber Valetta (Hitch), Jason Flemyng (Snatch), and Matthew Modine. --Bret Fetzer

still transporting some fun.......2007-07-02
Jason Statham returns again as the cool transporter, this time involved in a less dangerous transporting business - the driver for a wealthy and famous Miami family. The action and choreography are still as cool as the beautiful scenes of Miami, but the characters and CGI useage hurt this sequal just a tad, thus making it slightly less entertaining than the first Transporter.
So on the positive note, Jason Statham is still wonderful in this sequal, fun to watch, and just down right cool to say the least. The action scenes are fun, and there is still some martial arts to please. The story is inetersting - at times - and the cinematogrpahy of beautiful Miami makes one want to starting earning the bucks to live in such a gorgeous place.
On the down side, the charcaters - especially the villains - are not nearly as enjoyable as the first film. The boss is rather average, but its his ridiculously skinny girl, who's always in the heat of action, that is somewhat distracting and not in a pleasant manner, despite her skimpy outfits. The CGI, which was rarely used in the 1st film, is more abundant this time, and is very obvious when used. Some of the action scenes are so wild, only CGI could be used to execute them. Unfortunately, they look too fake at times, especially they airplane which just happens to be the climax scene of the film. It was cool to see Frank (Jason Statham) and the bad guy fight it out inside a plane that was doing loopies, but it also ment no cool choreography for this final fight.

Customer Reviews:
Galaxy Police.......2007-03-26
In my opinion, this has got to be the funniest part of the whole series of Tenchi Muyo! Seina Yamada has extreme bad luck with every step he takes in life, but it seems it's a good thing for finding pirates. To top it off with Seina Yamada's sidekick robot, NB, is outstandingly funny. How they came up with this character is beyond me, but it helps the series a hell of a lot.
On the real, I watch different episodes of this box set every day, for a great laugh. I wouldn't suggest this for kids though as it seems to be for a much more mature audience. Standout episodes in my opinion are the training episodes at Amane's house, when he meets Neju, when he goes back to earth and visits Tenchi and his roomies, and the episode where he gets his first paycheck as a captain. This show is absolutely hilarious. The only part I didn't like about the series is that they changed the voice actress for the original Ryoko. The original voice suits her best in my opinion. Besides, that one only flaw, this is a great series and I would recommend it to anyone who is of a mature age, who loves to laugh at animated comedy. Peace!
Tenchi Muyo! GXP: Galaxy Police Transporter.......2006-11-06
well it was better than some people put it out to be i liked it but it ended kind of wierd it kind of left you hanging for a sequel but the sequel might be a little better of some points the set is mad for the younger age i do recomend it for some younger class even though it has some points where the adult class might like frown on. but it was good and i recommend it to everyone who is a anime fan
Your GP Licence has expired!!........2006-08-27
You may or may not agree with me, but not every Anime ever made is great. The cover art on both of the box & cases are pretty much the greatest thing out of this 26 episode series. I might seem a little hoarse, but this show is nothing compared to the first two original Tenchi shows "Tenchi Muyo: Ryo-ohki" & "Tenchi: Universe". I didn't count "Tenchi In Tokyo" because that series is not as the first two. I will admit that the show is good & interesting in the first 14 episodes, after that with the reunion of the original Tenchi cast, of course with a all new voice cast, which totally kills it, for me at least. The storys on episode 15-26 are pointless, & the missons they have in space are not as funny as "Tenchi Universe" was. The show ends of course with a incomplete wedding that actually makes you want more of this show. There's no real point to this series & Siena, the star of the show, isn't really special & doesn't really have a reason for being in space. This show costs to much money for the exacted same thing that you have bought in volumes. All the disc contain the exacted same thing on them too. There is no special features except for previews & short bio's on some of the cartoon cast members. This show is in English, & does not have subtitles for the signs that are spelled in Japanese, so most of the time you have to imagine what the signs say, & it gets pretty ignoring at times. However if you can't hear, they have subtitles for that also known as Closed Captioning. The reason this show is not cheap is because they have eight disc all together, you see that's where they get you, disc 2-8 contain only three episodes on each disc, which is a waste of disc space, but I guess to make money you have to spread it out. There is alot more wrong with this series but I don't feel like getting into it all because you'll be here forever. Overall I give this series a 3 1/2 out of 5.

b Audio and Video: /b Funimation get's an A+ from me for this complete series. The dubs are fantastic not to mention the music and video quality. If I didn't know any better, I'd say this was a domestic creation! Seina Yamada always has bad luck but that changes when he meets cute alien girls.
If y'all love Tenchi Muyo GXP then I perfer y'all get "Tenchi Muyo! Ryo-Ohki - Here Comes the Bride" movie.

don't break the rules.......2007-06-20
The Transporter is Jason Statham's first big solo role in a movie, and it is a success with the followups of Transporter 2, Crank, and the anticipated upcoming film "War", where he fights one on one against Jet Li. Jason has participated in several films before Transporter in somewhat lesser roles such as "The One" and "The Italian Job", but the Transporter finally lets this man shine - and he brings a character to the screen - Frank Martin - who is intelligent, skillful, strong and one downright cool guy.
The movie has a good and promising beginning, showing off the cool factor of Frank Martin immediately. Followed quickly by an intense car chase scene, the movie never lets up after that - whether it be action or suspense. The story is not too interesting, but it is put together well. Frank discovers that a package he is transporting is carrying a live body inside. Frank's "tough-guy attitude" is worn down and he breaks his own rule by opening the package. The receiver of the package is no dummy, and realizes that Frank broke the rules and has his car destroyed. Frank, fortunately absent from his car during the explosion, seeks revenge but ends up with company along the way by accident - the girl inside the package. From here the story begins to take off as Frank becomes entangled in the situation all the more.
While there isn't a tremendouns amount of action, the spacing of action works well enough. The final 20 minutes are huge, easily containing the best scenes in the movie. I especially liked the fights in the bus garage and the final highway truck scene which reminded me very much of the truck scene from "Raider of the Lost Ark".
Transporter is a great movie for Jason Statham. I really enjoy this guy, and see a good future for him. His martial art skills are truly entertaining, as is his stunts and acting. This is an hour and half of just great relax entertainment.
The Transporter in Blu-ray: Action, Suspense, Romance and Fast Cars!.......2007-05-29
I loved this movie! The story was new and creative! If you like action movies and actor Jason Statham, you'll love this movie. Filmed in the French Riviera!
Video-Blu-ray: This movie enjoys a good transfer-not perfect- but good! You still see some video noise and image grain. Overall, Just slightly better than the SD in term of details with extra grain.
Audio: simply impressive!
Bottom line: You can't go wrong with this one! Action, suspense, romance and fast car chases. If the image grain bothers you, try the SD version-it's not as grainy.
The Transporter.......2007-05-09
Totally wonderful film. Tons of action , but none of is unbelievable (this is NOT Spiderman, thank God). I am personally very attached to the location, in and around Nice, which I visit often. Statham is very cool and low key; Shu Qi is totally delicious. Her English is to die for. The French Commissaire is just wonderful. The driving action (this from a pretty crazy driver) is very satisfying. Luc Besson for ever!! As good as the best of James Bond...
Could be the dumbest movie ever..........2007-04-17
This could be the dumbest movie ever made (and that's a bold statement to make when one considers that "Underworld" also exists). Sadly, unlike "Underworld" there is no leather clad Kate Beckinsale to drool over. Instead, we are treated to a movie that could easily be confused for a map of the human DNA (but a human with an extra chromosome).
Jason Statham, so likable in "Snatch", "Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels" and "The Italian Job" is thoroughly wasted in this flick. When he's not busy escaping from his tricked out house, driving fast whilst looking cool and beating up on clichéd Euro trash delivers lines such as "Rule #1. Never change the deal" and is expected to act with a straight face when he's the recipient of this type of drivel - "You're always complaining, except when we make love. Then you say nothing.". Thankfully, the one thing Stetham is great at is keeping a straight face. But you won't. Not if you have a brain, that is.
All action with a story included.......2007-04-17
I went into watching this movie with no knowledge of what it was about. I ended up in the end of it loving it. This movie is an "all action" flick with a story included. Actually it isn't just one story, it is a couple of them. The stunts in this movie and the special effects is outstanding. If you like action flicks, you will love this one. I recommend this movie to anyone that loves action flicks and is a Jason Stantham fan as well. BTW, he does have his shirt off in a couple of scenes in this one.
