DVD | Transporter 2

Frank Martin is back, but this time he’s doing a favour for a mate and doing to school run for a well off family. Not quite the plot you’d expect for a Jason Statham movie, but then it’s not quite the usual suburban school run either – you see these bad people decide they want the kid. Oh yeah.

Statham is the definition of cool when it comes to action stars – he kicked arse in the original transporter (as well as Snatch and The Italian Job, and a way too small blink-and-you’ll-miss-it role in Collateral), and he doesn’t disappoint in this instalment. Some great fight scenes and nice car action give us all the eye candy we need from an action movie. It’s definitely a step up from the first, with one minor exception.

The boundaries of believability (yes, I know it’s only a movie) are pushed a little too much in a couple of the car stunts, and the obvious CGI lets the movie down, slightly.

Bout grab a big bucket of popcorn, large vanilla coke and settle back for a fun night in!
