Statham is the most dangerous man alive and can kill twenty bad guys on a bus without breaking a sweat, and yet there is a fight scene among some storage containers, where the No. 1 bad guy pushes him over and just walks away. Statham's accent is always confusing to me. He is from Norfolk, but where he is supposed to be from in his films is a mystery. I suppose Transporter is not meant to be cinematic art and it is fast paced, or as the press prefer to say, 'high-octane'.
The Transporter movies are pretty sweet, and I love me some Jason Statham movies, but nothing can possibly live up to the Crank movies. Especially Crank 2. Best action movie ever made IMO.
