Transporter (2002)
Rating: 6.5/10
Genre: Action | Crime | Thriller
Ex-Special Forces operator Frank Martin lives what seems to be a quiet life along the French Mediterranean, hiring himself out as a mercenary "transporter" who moves goods--human or otherwise--from one place to another. No questions asked. Carrying out mysterious and sometimes dangerous tasks in his tricked-out BMW, Frank adheres to a strict set of rules, which he never breaks. Rule One: Never change the deal. Rule Two: No names--Frank doesn't want to know whom he's working for, or what he's transporting. Rule Three: never look in the package. Frank's newest transport seems no different from the countless ones he's done in the past. He's been hired by an American known only as "Wall Street" to make a delivery; but when Frank stops along the route, he notices his package is moving. Violating Rule Three, Frank looks inside the bag, finding its contents to be a beautiful, gagged woman. Frank's steadfast adherence to his other two rules--which make up his basic code of survival--also quickly fails, hurtling him and his new companion on a road leading to shocking secrets, deadly complications, and the last thing that Frank ever expected to come to believe: that rules are made to be broken.

Transporter 2 (2005)
Rating: 6.1/10
Genre: Action | Crime | Thriller
Frank Martin is the best in the business. The ex-Special Forces operative hires himself out as a mercenary "transporter" who moves goods--human or otherwise. Very simple, he delivers, no questions asked. Frank has relocated from the French Mediterranean to Miami, Florida, where as a favor to a friend, Frank is driving for the wealthy Billings family. There's very little that can surprise The Transporter, but young Jack Billings has done just that; Frank has unexpectedly bonded with Jack, age 6, who he drives to and from school. But when Jack is kidnapped, Frank must use his battle-tested combat skills to retrieve the boy and thwart the kidnappers' master plan to release a virus that will kill anyone with whom it comes in contact.

Transporter 3 (2008)
Rating: 5.9/10
Genre: Action | Crime | Thriller
Strong-armed into transporting the kidnapped daughter of the head of the Environmental Agency for the Ukraine from Marseilles to Odessa, skilled wheelman Frank Martin (Jason Statham) enlists the aid of Inspector Tarconi (François Berléand) in accomplishing the treacherous assignment in this action-packed installment of the popular action series produced by Luc Besson (who also co-scripts). Frank isn't exactly thrilled with his latest assignment, but when his employer turns up the pressure, he has little choice but to deliver. His cargo is a feisty young girl named Valentina (Natalya Rudakova) -- who just happens to be the daughter of Leonid Vasilev (Jeroen Krabbé), the powerful top dog of the Ukraine EPA. Now, as Frank makes his way through Stuttgart and Budapest on the road to the Black Sea, Vasilev's men besiege his car from all sides, and his cynical young passenger gets a bad case of Stockholm Syndrome. As the driver and his cargo grow increasingly close, they both realize that making even a single mistake could cost them dearly.

OK i watched Transporter 1 last night and it was FREAKING AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I LOOOOOOVED IT! I cant wait to watch 2 tonight. I think the storyline wasn't that strong, i mean, the women he rescued was kind of annoying especially when she screamed LOL it was like a pig squealing. Anyway, the storyline was a bit blah and if it wasn't for the action and car chases i would have turned it off.... ill just say one thing... Jason Statham is AWESOME! He put on an annoying accent which was totally fake and you could see right through it LOL But besides that, amazing acting as usual First off, its starts off with a 5 minutes car chases which was totally awesome!!! I always loved a good car chase scene... Then his fighting skills were just amazing, i loved every scene were he kicked butt. Especially near the end where he keeps spilling over these oil tanks and loads of bad guys around him keep slipping and then he realizes there getting closer, so he spills a whole oil tank on himself and when they go to get him, there hands just slip off him ;d IT WAS AMAZING!! So they are all slipping around and trying to fight and then he puts on these blade things on the bottom of his feet and he can walk on the ground then coz he has grip and he starts kicking them with these kung fu moves! BEST SCENE EVER!! hehe Anyway, there were LOADS of fighting scenes and gun shooting scenes which was awesome when he was dodging them and things, that man can do brilliant stunts! So I'm watching 2 tonight, i hope its better than 1 with the storyline, coz it was kind of weak this one.... besides that, i cant wait for more action!!

I LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVED 2, it was my favourite so far!!!!! The stroyline was wayyy better than 1. I loved all the fighting scenes in this one as usual and the car chases, my gosh that car chase were hes in the car with the blonde women and hes trying to loose the cops, THAT WAS AWESOME when he jumped from the car park onto that other building and the car when spinning and started knocking all the polls off supporting the building.... mind blowing stunt. Ohh and when he had the bomb on the bottom of his car and he did that flip thing in the air so that the crain magnet would take it off the bottom before it blew up... i was mouth opened on that stunt hehe Ohh and when he like kung fu'd that girl and she stuck to those spikes in that weird pose LOOOL FUNNY SHIT! Anyway, loved the storyline and the virus thing, i thought it was ace. I cant wait for 3.
