Transporter 2 knows what its audience wants and--like its title character--it delivers. This is a movie that has not only a fight choreographer but also a car stunt choreographer; a movie in which a female assassin wears nothing but a bra and panties because, presumably, additional clothing would be too cumbersome; a movie in which crashing through a concrete wall in order to leap over a four-lane street will not even rumple the hood of the hero's car; a movie in which a drunken supermodel, after her advances are chastely and gently rebuffed by the hero, says "Thanks for the respect--that's what I needed most"; a movie, in short, for those who liked the first Transporter but found it too subdued and character-driven. Jason Statham (The Italian Job) reprises his role as Frank Martin, a perhaps overly diligent chauffer who will break bones if his duty is impeded. The sheer glee with which Transporter 2 casts aside logic, probability, and the laws of physics is infectious. If the sequence in which Frank flips his car upside-down in order to detach the bomb attached to his undercarriage doesn't reduce you to intoxicated giggles, well...you're watching the wrong movie. Transporter 2 is utterly shameless, unstoppably ridiculous, and completely enjoyable. Also featuring Amber Valetta (Hitch), Jason Flemyng (Snatch), and Matthew Modine. --Bret Fetzer
Description
The best in the business is back in the game! Jason Statham returns in his signature role as ex-Special Forces operative Frank Martin aka "The Transporter." Now retired from his chosen profession of moving dangerous goods with no questions asked, he makes a living driving for a wealthy family in Miami, Florida. But when their young son is abducted, Frank must use his battle-tested combat skills to save the boy and thwart the kidnapper's nefarious master plan. Packed with high-octane car chases and high-flying martial arts action, Transporter 2 delivers nonstop excitement from beginning to end!

 Action movies are great. Perhaps a step further than needed? March 7, 2010
Timothy Imholt (Methuen, Mass)
I like action movies as much as anyone I am sure. From time to time they go a step beyond what they should. This one there is a place or two where it is just that. Beyond the limits of physics, and reason.
However that being said, lots of great action, entertaining movie, some great stunt driving. You will not be overwhelmed by the acting but that being said there wasn't a performance so bad it made you question the casting director. Everyone was at least adequate. I am a huge fan of the star and like him, and will see his other stuff again and again but if you are looking for a fantastic movie, with a great plot this isn't it. If you want action this is your movie.

 High speed car chases that should not be tried at home part 2! January 10, 2010

High speed car chases that should not be tried at home part 2! If you are looking to buy this movie, you must have seen the first of the trilogy and want more! Well, you'll get more from Jason Statham. More chases, but not repetative. New sequences that make want to see more. Don't stop here, go for third movie as well. You won't regret it.
Zany Bond-like car stunts & plenty of testosterone. It's a guy flick. January 5, 2010
DV6740 (New Jersey, USA)
I'm not going to tell you what the plot line is because I think a review should review the movie positive and negative points without revealing what actually transpires. Movies should be enjoyed without the viewer knowing what's going to happen next.
Transporter 2 had me going right from the begining. Jason Statham does a great job playing the quiet, yet tough and very capable character, Frank Martin, an ex-special forces soldier we were introduced to in the first Transporter. Martin still hires himself out as a transporter, no questions asked, but instead of a BMW, he's tooling around in a teched-out Audi A8 Sedan. Nice.
As I watched I spotted some far-fetched action scenes that sparked memories of the classic James Bond films. Stuff that couldn't possibly be done in real life, but then I thought, "Hey, it's a movie!" And, just like those Bond flicks, I enjoyed the film without a hitch.
Transporter 2 is a fun, action packed, adrenalin pumping movie with a cool lead character and a good story. Just check your critical thinking skills at the door and you'll be fine. I loved it.

This was a good story with non-stop action. The special effects are awesome. This movie did exactly what the "Transporter" Means.
 you would think in 2005 they would have more realistic special effects December 6, 2009
