Amazon.com: 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

Average Rating: 
Rating: - Seen worse
Well this was entertaining, you can't deny that, and in various parts of the film there were some subtle moments between the action sequences.
It only just merits 3 stars for me. Jason Statham is not a great actor, but as Frank he does this part as well as I've seen him do anything. The actor who played the French Police Inspector was by far the best thing on the screen.
So its certainly a 'high-octane' thriller, and in places it doesn't take itself entirely seriously ... Read More
Rating: - Fast moving action & quality stunts
Very cool Jason Statham stars as a hard fight, ace driver criminal. There's some brilliant action here and it gets just about everything right. This is a top quality action film & great fun - strongly recommended.
Rating: - The Transporter Movie Review from The Massie Twins
The Transporter tries to be a thrilling James Bond-like adventure, but ultimately turns out to be prime material for an episode of Mystery Science Theater 3000. Unrealistic, but more importantly poorly constructed, this gauche thriller only succeeds in being unintentionally hilarious - which oddly adds entertainment value the creators couldn't have planned for.
Frank (Jason Statham) only has three rules for transporting: 1. Never change the deal; 2. No names; 3. Never open the package. ... Read More
Rating: - The transporter
DVD is good quality, has a glitch in the first 2 min. of play, but cleaning it helped somewhat. Otherwise great flic, and seller sent it quickly.
Rating: - Great Movie, Good Bluray Disc
This is a great action flick that has received a pretty good conversion for Bluray. The visuals are solid and the sound upgrade is above average. This is a definite buy if you don't already on it on DVD, and if you are a Statham fan, it's worth upgrading for.
