Film 293/365, Day 322/365 – Transporter 3

Plenty of action, high speed car chases and some excellent fights.  Statham is brilliant as Frank Martin, he’s cool, calm and hard as nails and for some reason he loves to use his jacket as a weapon!  A good easy to watch film.

Synopsis:  The daughter of Ukrainian Government minister has been kidnapped and Frank Martin has been forced to transport her from Marseilles to Odessa.  Can Frank complete the job and get away with his life especially as he is wearing a bracelet that will explode if he goes too far from his car?

Film 152/365, Day 162/365 – The Expendables

Lots and lots of action.  Other than that however there isn’t too much to The Expendables and unfortunately that is why it won’t be remembered as one of the great action films.  The script was pretty awful and acting just as bad; the action was good but not brilliant.  I expected more if I’m honest.

Synopsis:  They are an expert military team available to hire.  They have no government affiliation.  They answer to nobody.  Ultimately however they are expendable.  Now they have been hired by the CIA to remove a former operative who has taken over an island and is running it as a base for his drugs operation.

Film 90/365, Day 95/365 – The Transporter

Packed full of explosive action and stunts, you cannot go too far wrong with The Transporter if you are looking for something fun that isn’t too taxing.  Jason Statham is brilliant as retired Special Forces operator Frank Martin.  The fights scenes are awesome and wouldn’t look out of place in a kung fu masterpiece.  Good enough to watch anytime.

Synopsis: Frank Martin is a Transporter available to hire, no matter what the job.  Just tell the size and weight of the package, how far it’s to be transported and by when.  Then providing you can afford his fee consider it done.  Then when one such job results in his beloved car being blown up, Frank goes back for compensation and he’s going to get it!
