The Transporter

Anyone see the previews for this movie? I'm psyched because the guy from Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels (My second favorite flick of all time) is in it, and he was my favorite character.

If anyone has ever seen Orgasmo, you'll appreciate this... "Not to sound like a queer or nothing" but I think that guy is tough ****. He's like Vin Diesel except he doesn't have to act so hard to try and be tough.

I hope it's a good flick, because that guy is cool as ****. And the dropkicking the door on the previews was funny as hell.

Nope, that's another guy, but he is in Lock, Stock as well. Bullettooth Tony in ******, right? If you liked that movie and haven't seen Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels, I'd suggest you watch it. It's a lot like ****** because it's by the same director Guy Ritchey (sp?). It came out a year or two before ******, and the only reason I don't like ****** more is because it seems slightly ripoffish from Lock, Stock.

Yeah, ****** and Lock stock & 2 smocking barrels are very similar though good movies. I have both on DVD, and I think the Transporter looks OK, so I might go see it.

Okay, so the guy is in both of ******, Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels. He plays the character of Turkish. He also plays a cop in the movie with Jet Li, 'The One'.

Can't wait to see the movie as the guy's way cooler then Vin Diesel at pulling of Arnold-like lines and movies.

Yea, Vin Diesel is all well and good for the first 5 minutes, but then you realise he's trying way too hard to be tough.

I saw the movie yesterday. It was pretty good.

Jason Statham kicks some serious *** in this movie. The driving scene in the beginning is awesome. The story kinda sucks because it's got a few holes in it. The girl that's in the trunk is annoying as hell too.

I'd give it a 7.5 out of 10. I'll take off 2 points for the crappy sotryline and .5 off for the annoying girl.

Just watched this saturday night.

The english actor did an awesome job. There was some very cheezy parts...but the movie was dragged down by the taiwanese girl...horrible accent...and acting.

This movie would have been a little better if they were able to get a better asian actress...

Here is a list of ALL movies he Jason Statham has been in, including Lock, Stock and ******.
