The Transporter 2 (2005)
Director: Louis Leterrier
Movie review
From Time Out London
Is it a bad thing that the sequel to 2002's The Transporter resembles a live-action Tex Avery cartoon? You be the judge. The man in black and white (Statham) must rescue the kidnapped brat of a drug czar from an oily mercenary (Gassman) and a gun-slinging, skanky panty-clad superbitch (Katie Nauta) who performs miraculous feats of acrobatic mayhem in sky-high heels. Things blow up, cars fly, and international disaster is averted; The Transporter 2 is formulaic to the nth power, but credit Statham with having the best stone face since Buster Keaton.Author: MM
