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

 Statham makes the movie August 21, 2008
Moonlight Graham (Chicago, Illinois United States)
The Transporter began a series of over-the-top action movies starring Jason Statham. If you are like me, this has been a positive development. While I feel that Statham is a fine actor who could do more serious work (and did in The Bank Job), he is able to elevate these implausible action movies to a level they may not deserve. The Transporter is a straightforward action movie and features some creative fights.
The Blu-Ray is a mixed bag. The transfer isn't bad and it sounded great on my system, but there are little extras. There is a commentary featuring Statham - I haven't listened to that yet, but will probably give it a shot. Other than that, the only special features are trailers.
Given that they are coming out with a third Transporter, it may be worth holding off on these films as I would guess a double-dip is on the way.
 Great movie on UMD! July 19, 2008
Gauntletwielder (MIAMI, FL United States)
Not much to say here. It is a great movie on UMD for the PSP.
I am gradually buying as many good movies on UMD as I can. If you own a PSP and look for great movies on UMD, you know they are rare. (There is a LOT of crap available on UMD though. That might explain why I always see large quantities of Ali G and Viva La Bam on UMD.)
I have about 40 movies on UMD so far. This is one of them.
I bought my PSP to watch movies, play The Simpsons game, and play Tomb Raider. That's it. I love my PSP.
Rules are made to be broken March 31, 2008

Transporter DVD
Transporter is a high action movies involving an ex-Special forces soldier who earns his living transporting "packages" for various clients, mostly shady. In this movie, the transporter ( Jason Stratham )violates his own rules ( he's real big on rules ) and looks inside the package, doesn't like what he sees and doesn't complete the delivery. Bad idea, now the client is after him, along with the police. The movie is set in the French countryside so if you don't enjoy the thrill-a-minute action, just enjoy the view.
Highly recommended for fans of Jason Stratham , James Bond movies, and high action movies, especially car chases.

 Rules Are Meant To Be Broken March 22, 2008

Jason Statham stars in this action packed American directorial debut of action director Cory Yuen as Frank Martin. Frank is an ex soldier of fortune who now dedicates his life to transport packages (and I don't mean UPS) he transports whatever it is, usually illegal things. He goes by the rules, and never breaks them. First rule never change the deal, 2nd rule no names, 3rd rule never open the package. But one day on his daily route to transport a package, he gets a flat tire. He opens the trunk, to retrieve his spare tire, and finds that the package is moving, breaking one of his own rules he opens the package. Inside he finds a girl. This girl seems to be involved in smuggling of people for slave labor, along with her there are 400 other individuals being smuggled in containers. Afterwards a whole bunch of action, explosions and hi adrenalized fighting scenes take place. And everything happens for opening the package. It may seem a little silly, but this movie is awesome, definitely buy this, ignore the sequel it's not that great.
MY PERSONAL RATING: 4 OUT OF 5
