Rule One: Never change the deal.
Rule Two: No names
Rule Three: Never look in the package.
Ah rules, they seem to need breaking all the time, don't they? Well I guess, if no one broke any rules, then we'd have no movie.
The transporter is a simple action movie, first act, establish the main character, Frank, played by the new action star Jason Statham. He's got a trick BMW and he likes to keep it clean. Oh, and don't be changing rule one on him cause he don't like that.
Second act, while on the job, he just has to break one of his rules. Aww, at least we then see the asian beauty Lai, played Chinese star Shu Qi. I'm glad she doesn't have much to say.
Rest of the film is about how to get out of the mess.
As far as action films go, this reminds me of the one's back in the 80's lots of guns and explosions. There's really only one good car chase, and that's in the beginning.
If you're an action junkie, then go see this, you won't be disappointed. IF you like a bit more plot and several great car chases, then go watch Ronin.
