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 Description: Frank Martin (Jason Statham) is the best as what he does: transporting dangerous or illegal goods with no questions asked. But his last shipment, a beautiful young woman kidnapped by international slave traders, brings deadly complications to his delivery plans. Now Frank must kick into overdrive in a nonstop action-packed fight to save his precious cargo - and his life. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Should you buy the Blu-ray version... or pass?(Note: This review is to assist Amazon customers in the choice of purchasing this title for Blu-ray. As Blu-ray owners, we all know not all discs were created equal. I am here to simply point out the differences and/or improvements made between the Blu-ray title and the standard DVD title. No one wants to pay an extra $20 to $45 for just a format.) Plot Since this title was previously released on DVD, I will spare you what you can already find on a common movie trailer site... ... Read More Rating:  - Statham makes the movieThe 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 ...

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 ...

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 ... Read More Rating:  - Rules Are Meant To Be BrokenJason 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.
