Top notch action

Rating: 10/10 (12 August 2006)

A fast paced movie about a retired Special Forces man who parlays his nontraditional talents into a tidy living transporting anything that can fit into his BMW, but the transport must also meet his long tested set of rules. This 007-like role can only be played by a Brit, and Statham does an excellent job. An action film that doesn't have much meaningful dialog, but just enough to make the characters interesting. I love the dry humor, and pun filled lines. After breaking his own rules, you see very well choreographed and exciting fight scenes  albeit not very believable  that's not what this film is about. Good, relatively clean, fun with some nice twists as the transporter tries to return to his simple lifestyle.
