Dull, short, formulaic...zzzzzzzzz

Rating: 3/10 (6 October 2002)

The first scene of this "action" movie is fairly entertaining. What follows is frightfully boring. We don't go to action movies to see character developemnet and The Transporter doesn't break new ground there. How could it; the movie is only 45 minutes long, or so it seems. So predictable you'll think you've seen this movie before. Scenes run together so incongruently I wonder if the editor was even looking at the celluloid. The romanctic interlude is likely put in only for a nudity rating. Even the stunts are archaic. Jumping out of a plane with a parachute, ooooh! Leaping from an overpass to a moving semi, whoa. And the big finish... oh yeah, there is no big finish. This film makes Golan and Globis look like art film makers.
