Action & Adventure > Leterrier, Louis Action & Adventure

Have A Good Life. Whats Left Of It

Advantages: Good fast paced action movie, decent martial arts scenes
Disadvantages: Could have done with another big name

...did really like the first Transporter movie and so it was really inevitable that I’d be seeing this regardless of my prior concerns about it. Statham resumes his role from the first movie as a Transporter, a man paid to deliver things from one place to another. Only this time he has moved to Miami and the films starts with him doing a favour for a friend and acting as a chauffer. When the little boy he is driving around becomes the target of a kidnapping ...
...This second instalment of the Transporter series sees Statham team up for the second time with Louis Leterrier. His direction seems to have come on a little from the first movie but with that in mind it still looks pretty good. The fight sequences are very well choreographed and look really well put together. The car and boat chases also look amazing with Leterrier really using some great angles and effects to create a film that looks really good. ...

Review of Transporter 2 (DVD)

Entertaining if you don't think too much!

Advantages: Watching Jason kick some a*ses!
Disadvantages: Some of the stunts are a little far fetched?

...and Lock Stock, I thought the Transporter (I and II) would be equally good. Unfortunately, it is far, far from being as good BUT.... if you are a fan of films like XXX and action packed movies with crazy stunts and mad fight scenes, then you should enjoy it. Jason (Frank Martin in the film) did most of the stunts himself, which is quite an achievement in itself. In my opinion, the first film was way better than the second one, in that the story ...
...a lot less dodgy. The car chases are most enjoyable in both but in the second one, one of the stunts in nothing short of 'appalling'. Frank Martin ends up with a bomb stuck under his car so he simply gets rid of the unwanted bomb by taking off sideways and grazing a pillar which knocks it off. Another pretty dodgy stunt was when he drives off the roof of a building and lands on the building opposite (but not on the roof!) a few levels down as the ...

Review of The Transporter/Transporter 2 (Box Set) (DVD)

jason is back

Advantages: great plot
Disadvantages: fair fetched car moves

This is a great film that I caught on telly on Saturday night and I cannot believe that I have not seen it before, I think I caught it at the right time as the third is to be released soon and if it is as good as the second I am in for a real treat. Jason Statham plays Frank Martin, a chauffer who takes being precise to the extreme, but as you find if you get in his way there will be serious consequences. As a former Special Forces agent he now ...
...Billings played Matthew Modine the dad and his wife Audrey played by Amber Valletta, but on his watch their young son Jack played by Hunter Clary is kidnapped on a trip to the Doctors by a drug lord, Gianni played by Alessandro Gassman he has a mysterious virus and anti-virus as part of a plot in the story, I will not go into too much detail. Frank makes a promise to Jack and will stop at nothing to find the criminals who are holding him for ransom ...

Review of Transporter 2 (DVD)

The Bigger the hit, the faster the rush, the Sweeter the revenge!

Advantages: Great action packed film, Great actors, Good storyline
Disadvantages: You may not be able to get into the story-line!

...WHSmith. ***CRANK 2*** Crank 2: High Voltage was released this year and contains Jason Statham again. Chelio’s tears through the town in search for the Chinese criminal who has possession of his heart. Amy Smart, Dwight Yoakham, and Efren Ramirez revisit their roles from the original film. ***OVERALL OPINION*** I think Jason Statham is a fantastic actor anyway and I have to say that I loved this film. It was full of action and also has some funny ...
...I wouldn’t hesitate to watch Crank 2. My dad did how-ever borrow the DVD and after 30mins he switched it off as he couldn’t quite get into the film. If you like Jason as an actor and if you like his other films I think you with thoroughly enjoy this film. I would recommend it to anyone who like’s action packed films. (review als on dooyoo) ...

Review of Crank (DVD)

2012 true or wrong

Advantages: I believe in god so I do not believe the end of 2012.
Disadvantages: 2012 film is entertainment. so make it fun for our minds

...if you buy the hype, 2012 is going to be the year of that will see the end of humanity, much like the earlier 2000s saw the downfall of TRL. The year of shock. Horror. Awe. Awe-some! I am currently much anticipating the apocalypse, especially if it involves John Cusack and will finally foresee that sinful state, California, falling into the Pacific Ocean, where it belongs, obviously. I am anticipating it as much as I did Y2K, with my gallons of water ...
...the claims of December 21, 2012 (in addition to it being my future wedding date), being the end of this current "cycle" we're upon. The Mayans were a very intelligent civilization for their time--they were able to calculate the time of day, and their mathematical accomplishments floored any Europeans' of the time. But there's a lot of controversy as to what December 21, 2012, signifies to them. Of course it's the end of their calendar cycle, but ...
