Summary: "B" grade Asian actors
Review: As stated in the other reviews, this movie has no plot, but does have constant action. However, the two main Asian actors must be "b" list retreads. The daughter's voice has the most annoying whine and the father should have at least gotten his teeth whitened before they made the movie. As far as the action, I thought xXx was bad, but this movie was far worse.

Summary: Perfect for what it is -- Beautifully shot, Non-stop Action
Review: The Transporter is very entertaining, because of an explosive mix both on and off-screen. Off-screen, French directing teams (some from Ronin) created awesome cinematography and driving scenes, mixed with Yuen-driven (the credited director) hand-to-hand action scenes, all mixed with--of course--Jason Statham's fighting prowess.On-screen, Statham has a rare combination of actual acting and physical prowess. Shu Qi is beautiful, and her character has more going on than just to be saved by Statham (some viewers apparently missed this). There is also an apparently well-known French actor who works as a semi-friendly inspector, and he does a great job. Problems with the movie are predictable for something so action-oriented: plot holes, some impossible stunts. It also has some unique problems, which add to the movies's charms: such as French criminals high and low speak American English (?), Statham tries to do the same (and gives up halfway, like Costner in Robin Hood but reversed), and Shu Qi and the French inspector are at times unintelligible. But at a basic level, the movie is all about Statham kicking ass, about Shu Qi looking beautiful, and lots of explosions over a sunny European seaside setting. It all comes together nicely (if often absurdly), and is highly recommended to those who need a truly nonstop action title to round out their collections.

Summary: One of the BEST ACTION movies I've ever seen
Review: This movie was incredible.The action scenes are some of (if not the) best scenes I've ever seen in a movie. The oil fight is without a doubt the most original and best fight scene ever made, in my opinion. Statham is a perfect fit for this role and delivers a flawless performance, as you can't help but like him after seeing what co-actors he has to work with. If he can make a movie good with these people, he's the man. However, if you're looking for a deep movie and great acting, beware. There is, well, no story what-so-ever, and there isn't a plot to be found. The acting, um, ...; with the exception of Statham and his detective friend. But, if you're able to lighten up a bit, you can be entertained by the poor acting and sorry story, as I found myself laughing at them in several spots. There was just one other qualm I had with this film: the soundtrack. I'm sorry, but hip-hop background music just doesn't cut it here. It is really begging for some hard rock music to get the audience's adrenaline up in some of the fights, but trust me, the fights can do it on there own. Bottom line-if you want action BUY IT. If you want a well written and well-cast classic, STEER CLEAR.

Summary: Terrific lead actor. Cheesy director. Goofy film.
Review: First, the good news: Jason Stratham is a very cool, physically impressive action hero. The south of France locales are terrific...To get a feel for what The Transporter could have been, go see Frankenheimer's "Ambush" starring Clive Owen, in the BMW Film series...Instead, under Yuen's direction, The Transporter is just disappointingly silly, and annoying like a Jackie Chan movie. What a missed opportunity. Stratham deserves a better director, and audiences deserve a better film. Better luck next time. Keep an eye on Jason Stratham, he's one to watch.

Summary: The best movie of the genre this season!
Review: This is the best movie that I saw this season, and I have a question to the producers of Bourne Identity: Why didn't you selected Jason Strathan to play the Bourne's role?
Rating:
Summary: Great action thriller.
Review: This highly entertaining thrill ride should thoroughly please action fans in the mood for pure escapism. The fight scenes are marvelous, the car chases are fast and exciting, and Jason Statham shows his potential as the greatest action star of his time.

Summary: Best Action Flick of 2002
Review: Keanue Reeves? Matt Damon? Ben Afleck? Those pretty boys are the best action stars of the next generation? C'mon, these guys are more concerned with whether or not their clothes match than actually being the next Bruce Willis, Clint Eastwood, or Sly Stallone! Have I lost all hope in Hollywood's future action films? Well no, because I saw a little gleam of hope when I watched The Transporter. Unlike most recent Hollywood action movies that use Martial Arts (The Matrix, The Bourne Identity, Daredevil) The Transporter brings something different to the table -- a star with authentic toughness. Jason Statham has style, a cool British wit, and the toughness to back it all up, something that OTHER "action" stars have been lacking. Although The Transporter may not be an overall better movie than recent action flicks, I would still gladly watch Statham beat the [pooh] out of a bunch of guys than watch Keanue Reeves do "Kung-Fu". The DVD is of pretty good value. The DVD itself contains both Fullscreen and Widescreen versions (Widescreen is the better of the two) and three language tracks to choose from. The extras are all pretty good as well: a Behind-the-Scenes featurette, audio commentary by Statham, a threatrical trailer, and 15 minutes of uncut fight scenes with optional commentary. The fight scenes are the obvious draw here and they don't disappoint. I warn you however, that once you watch the uncut fight scenes, you may feel a little shortchanged with what was left in the actual movie. Overall, The Transporter was a terrific movie, and it makes an even better DVD. You action fans who are tired of special effects, pretty boy action stars, and overdone camera angles rejoice! The Transporter has FINALLY arrived!

Summary: Great action!!
Review: Loved the movie. The action is fantastic. Yes the plot stinks and the dialogue is just okay (a lot like Arnold's first movies), but the action and effects make up for it. A total guy movie.
