Transporter 2 (DVD)

Transporter was a very minor hit in the cinemas but obviously made good money on the release of the DVD as the eponymous 'Transporter', played by Jason Statham, returns for a second bout of high octane action. Transporter 2 is full of what you would expect… unbelievable car chases, innovative and exciting stunts, some cracking fight scenes, a villainess who spends most of her time in lingerie and a ludicrous plot… in fact everything that makes a ...
...This time the Transporter has a nice easy driving job, looking after the young son of a famous politician. He drives him back and forth to school and wherever he, or his mother, would like to go. Of course not everything goes as smoothly and the Transporter finds himself caught up in a criminal masterminds incredible plan, one that involves drug smuggling and the anti drug stance of a certain politician! He finds himself accused of the kidnapping ...

Review of Transporter 2 (DVD)

Frank's back! And he's fitter and better than before. Working as a temporary driver for a young rich kid called Jack, Frank lands himself in a host of trouble after promising him he will never let anyone hurt him! He is (in true action/adventure style) kidnapped along with young Jack by the nasty and evil Gianni and his crazy sidekick Lola. Under the guise of a ransom, Gianni has bigger plans for Jack and his family. That was until Frank got in ...
...which once within the human body becomes highly contagious once the host starts to breath on other people. In Jack's case, his parents. Daddy is very powerful and is about to meet with several extremely powerful men from other countries. If he's infected, it could wipe out a lot of very very important people. Can Frank save the day again? ##MY OPINION## OK, I have written the above plot outline somewhat light heartedly, because if anyone watching ...

Review of Transporter 2 (DVD)

...have never seen the first Transporter film so I cannot compare the two. However I can say that after watching this one, I personally feel that you don't have to watch the first one in order to enjoy this. It may help understand the storyline a little more in the fact that Frank was a transporter and what exactly that means, but the kidnapping plot line didn't need any prior knowledge at all. I felt the actors and actresses did a really good job ...
...shot was really good too. All the special effects went well and Leterrier didn't overdo it on the sound either. The action scenes were constantly there which kept me on the edge of my seat and I really enjoyed watching it. I would definitely recommend this to anybody who loves a good action film, whether you are a male or a female. It is certificate 15 and contains violence, partial nudity, sexual content and occasional bad language. ...

Review of Transporter 2 (DVD)

...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)

...but my friend bought me Transporter 2 for my birthday and thought I would watch it to make a change. I finished watching it about 15 minutes ago and had to come straight on here to tell you all about it!! This obviously is a sequel to the film The Transporter (hence the highly clever name Transporter 2!). Incase you haven't seen the first one and have no idea what I am talking about, The Transporter is Frank Martin played by Jason Statham (Revolver, ...
...a Transporter. He is paid to transport things from one place to another and the 'things' he is transporting are usually highly dangerous or something that somebody else wants and Frank therefore has to defend his life, and the 'thing' he is transporting most of the time! In this case, he is hired by Audrey Billings (played by the very beautiful Amber Valletta, 'Hitch' and 'The Family Man') and her Congressman husband Jefferson Billings (Matthew ...

Review of Transporter 2 (DVD)

...managed to catch the first Transporter movie when it was on the TV late one night, and I am glad that we did! It was a fast thrilling film, and the first time I had seen Jason Statham in a film. So when my mum said she had the second film in the franchise on DVD and did I want to borrow it, I said yes straight away, interested to see how it would differ to the first movie. So here goes my review of this movie. I actually watched it on my own, to ...
...who also directed the first Transporter film. It was made in 2005. Ladies, don't be fooled into thinking this is a bloke's film, I very much enjoyed it! Jason Statham plays his role perfectly, the serious action hero, and the driving sequences are fantastic! I would give this film 5 stars out of 5, make sure you catch this one!! ...

Review of Transporter 2 (DVD)

The Transporter was one of those movies that didn't make a ton of money but developed a good audience mainly on home video. It was nothing special but featured some well-choreographed fight scenes and a nice line in over the top action, harking back to the eighties. So in order to capitalize on the success of the first movie, there is the obligatory sequel cleverly named Transporter 2. In case you didn't know here's the jist. Our very own Jason ...
...Direct to Video affair. However Transporter 2 works because it is frankly insane and seated firmly in the realm of make believe. Let's just say there are stunts and action scenes in the movie that frankly defy the laws of gravity and sense. At one stage Frank manages to get a bomb off the bottom of his care with expert precision driving and an amazing sense of timing. It just wouldn't happen anywhere else but in an action film. Against this insanity ...

The Japanese-style fight scenes are both unbelievably fantastic, The car chases are good, specially when he launches in a 360 degree mid air roll to dislodge a bomb under his nice Audi. Although saying that, the same sort of stunt has been done before,Not to mention the scene where he drives his car off a multi-storey car park, into another one, then spinning it 6 times through that car park, ...

This film is an epic action movie, and statham delivers again as the leading role. If you liked the first one i guarantee you will ...

Review of Transporter 2 (DVD)

I loved the first Transporter and I couldn't wait till I watched the sequel, but I was hugely disapointed even though I loved this film, it just wasnt as good as the first one. There are some great action scenes in the movie and the car chase scenes are good aswell, but I mean you get shot at and blown up and the bloody car that the main character played by Jason Statham, still comes out absoulety fine with no dirt or dents or scratches on it. ...

The transporter takes an unusual job of looking out for a young child, transporting them to school and back the child is the offspring of a man who is involved in the goverment, and these terroist type of people infect the child with a deadly virus so they can take control of the drugs market. But it comes down to the Transporter to save the child and hundreds of goverment officials lives. If you want a good hearted bit of ...
