![]() The Transporter lacked a threaten villain: Schulze played his role more as a man who is partier then a ruthless crime lord who will kill anyone who crosses him. The pair worked well and were surprisingly believable in the context of their world. Statham also had very good chemistry with Qi who did have charm as Lai. Likely Statham had enough charisma and was able to give Frank enough menace in his look. But he gave his character a weak American accent which kept slipping. He had the action chops with his physique and his martial arts ability and he was already showing his shy wit. The Transporter was Statham's first leading role outside of Guy Ritchie's films. The best sequence for me was the highway chase because it was easier to tell what was happening and for the most part the fighting and gun fights were well done. The real problem with the action is at times there was too much quick cutting which made some of the action sequence and it made them hard to follow: this was the particularly the case with the fight in the bus which was too tight, too close and overly edited. There is some weak CGI but it is rare and the best parts of the action is the practical effects and stunt work. There are flashy moments like when a gun is in the air and the downwards camera on a gun when a machine gun magazine clip drops to the ground. The highlight of the film is action sequences which director Corey Yuen injected a load of fun elements with martial arts, gun battles, an axe fight and the famous oil fight scene. The Transporter takes a basic B-Movie plot and story and gives it an MTV flash. Frank has to work with the woman, Lai, and a police detective, Inspector Tarconi (François Berléand), to bring down Bettencourt and his operator. But on a job he opens the package to find a Chinese woman (Shu Qi) tied up and gag, resulting with him crossing an American gangster, Bettencourt (Matt Schulze) who wants Frank dead. He lives by three rules: No.1 never change the deal, No.2 no names, No.3 never open the package. Frank Martin (Statham) is an ex-military man who turned into a driver for hire in the South of France. In the early part of the 21st Century, he turned to producing and one of his major hits was The Transporter, the film that made Jason Statham into an action star.
