Transporter 2 [Blu-ray]

good edge of seat action movie

Action

This contained my favorite kind of stunts - leaping, running, all sorts of physical agility & bravery, plus unusual driving. This is a true action movie.I do not care for hand-to-hand combat or shooting people, but I ignored it mostly. However, the beginning scene of 4 against 1 was enjoyable.I am always sorry when women want to compete with men. Women have such wonderful qualities; we do not need to compete with men or their qualities. Lovely Lola - I am always sad when beautiful young women expose their private loveliness - what must their parents think? It is unrealistic to think a woman like Lola could go toe to toe fighting with Jason S.This movie very much worth watching for the physical action. The scenery in the movie wonderful.

Now having seen all three of the Transporter films, I feel comfortable in my assessment of the third one as pure crap. While this and the previous entry don't really qualify as great cinema, they can still be enjoyed as popcorn entertainment. This sequel offers up a similarly thin premise, but executes it effectively and with little downtime for needless exposition. In fact this one is more streamlined than the first, clocking in at about 6 minutes shorter. The basic plot has Frank racing against time to get the antidote for a virus that infected a US government official and his family (and potentially a whole lot of other people). However, despite the shorter running time, everything that was good about the previous film is better in this one, namely the action sequences. The acting is mostly decent, although one of the villains, a female, didn't do as well as everyone else. Thankfully, she was quite a character and fairly easy on the eyes. Of course, it almost goes without saying that the fight choreography was excellent, done by Cory Yuen, who directed the first one. There was a really balletic quality to the fights that made them fun to watch, and the shooting style was able to adequately capture Jason Statham's abilities. The editing was a bit tighter this time around, but it also had the effect of making the hits seem harder, which I suppose is a good thing. There are only a couple of other things I feel worth mentioning in terms of the overall look and feel of the picture. Even though is from Luc Besson's production house, at times it looked and felt like a Michael Bay film, but not necessarily in a bad way. Part of this is due to the over-saturated color scheme which Bay uses in his film these days. Part of it could also be that it was set in Miami, which is where BAD BOYS and its sequel were set. Other than that, though, the cinematography was better and the humor was more appropriate than one finds in a Michael Bay film. Overall, the plot is just as ludicrous and convoluted as the first, perhaps more so, but the fight choreography and action sequences are a slight step up. Recommended for fans of the first one.

I liked it. It wasn’t a waste of my time. However, I enjoyed transporter one and three better.

It’s hard to find a movie with Jason Statham that doesn’t keep you at the edge of your seat. This movie is full of action

Frank has retired and now just drives for a rich Miami family. Their son who he really bounded with gets kidnapped and it's made to look like he was involved. He decides to save the son from these people while police and everyone after him. The group is lead by 2 very skilled evil tough people. One male and 1 insane sexy female. They have been paid to release a super killer virus. LOTS of crazy incredible action start to finish.

If you liked the first one, you'll like the 2nd movie. Plus Jason Statham is HOT!!

Yes region free but no indication that it is NOT in English. Love the film as I have it on dvd just wanted it on Blue-ray for any extras. Did not get this far to check, off it came at the first German dialoge. Going back to Amazon..

Very entertaining, action packed all the way through. Weak storyline and basic suspence but this is all overshadowed by great action sequences.So if you want to watch a film for all the thills n spills but dont want to be to engrossed in a storyline then this is the film for you.

Great movie

Not bad

Love The Transporter franchise - like Jason Statham - Pity that Jason Statham is not the lead in the new TV series but the new guy is just as good - miss Statham in the role though
