Overwiew :Retired in Miami, ex-Special Forces operative, Frank Martin, makes a living driving for the wealthy Billings family. He's a huge favorite with their two small boys, but when the kids are kidnapped and injected with a potentially fatal virus, Frank defies the FBI and works relentlessly to get the boys to safety and discover the kidnapper's master plan.
www.filmcritic.com - : The reason for this is simple. Unlike the rest of us, 13-year-old boys haven’t yet developed an immunity to mindless spectacle. They haven’t been around long enough to realize it’s their job as moviegoers to cluck and fuss every time a director tries to pull one over on the audience. Instead of feeling cheated when implausible scenarios pile up and ridiculous actions beget even more ridiculous reactions, 13-year-old boys hoot in approval. The explosions, the fights, the hot chicks, that’s enough for them. It’s a good thing, too, because that’s all The Transporter 2 has. more...
metromix.chicagotribune.com - : For the uninitiated, Statham plays Frank Martin, a professional ''transporter'' of delicate goods: guns, money, human cargo. Instead of a giant ''S'' on his chest, amoral Frank wears a black suit and keeps duplicates in his trunk. He doesn't ask questions. His rules, in the original, were: 1) ''Don't change the deal,'' 2) ''No names'' and 3) ''Never open the package.'' more...
www.eonline.com - : How does one react to an action star who manages to get out of every sticky situation in a way so unrealistically over-the-top all you can do is shake your head? Just sit back and enjoy the ride. Jason Statham is one cool dude right from the start. In the engaging first scene, he even whups a bunch of punks with nary a scratch nor a crease to his stylish wardrobe. It's like that throughout Transporter 2, as the hit-man type is on the case to rescue a kidnapped boy and then solve a biological crime. No matter the jam, Statham can get out of it, coolly. From bang-up beginning to blow-up ending, this trip is clearly just good escapist fun. more...
