Nobody-27
There are fun movies, guilty pleasure movies, even silly or ridiculous films... and they can all be enjoyed, to some extent. But this one is way below any of those standards. It feels like it was written during a drunk weekend, and with no re-writing. Someone had money to burn.
I won't go into details, because they are worthless. I wanted to see action and camera work, as well as chase sequences, and even those failed. Fighting was badly coordinated, chase scenes lack sense of space and orientation and therefore believability, story is barely there, twists and plot points absolutely ridiculous, timing is off throughout... In conclusion: this film sucks in every way imaginable.

Jason is easily, in a blink of an eye, subdued by a bad guy in the middle of the movie. He is so powerful and more skilled than Jason that there is no meaning in watching the rest of the film while Jason fights and beats dozens of bad guys. The movie is not convincing while Statham beats nearly all the bad guy while he is not capable of resisting even a second that bad guy who easily subdues him....I waited for a second confrontation between them but no. The movie ends with without this last battle between them. So l would prefer to see that other guy who kicks the Statham's ass in the movie...

Frank Martin is a former soldier running a private business as a "Transporter", a hired criminal whose job is to transport cargo, packages and passengers without question. Frank is the best in the business and he has never broken the rules. When he is hired by an American criminal to deliver a package, his curiosity leads him to break the rules, and he discovers the package he is delivering, is a Chinese woman named Lai. Learning that Frank broke the rules discovered Lai, the criminal sends his mercenaries to assassinate him. Frank takes it upon himself to protect not only himself, but Lai, as he agrees to help Lai rescue enslaved people from China, who are being smuggled into France........If you've seen any film produced by Luc Besson in the last thirteen years, you will know that they are hugely over the top, very silly, and in some instances, blooming awful (Taken 2, Colombiana). But thankfully, this is one of the better ones.And the reason being is that its concept is just so foolproof. A man, a solitary man who doesn't break any rules, breaks one fundamental one and everyone wants to kill him.But he can kick butt, and lots of butt is kicked. With the added bonus of Statham not putting on a ridiculous accent, this is the film that got him noticed, and even though its nothing to write home about, he has screen presence.The main plot involving him and the girl may have been stolen from The Big Hit, but it's still dumb fun.
