Too much FUN!!!! I want to see it again!

Rating: 9/10 (17 October 2002)

Okay, so like, if you're going to lambast a film and be all high and mighty, you might want to check your grammar and spelling. It behooves you to do so, lest you sound like an idiot to thousands of internet users with a higher I.Q. than yours.
Anyway, onto the flick...I loved it! I have a new favorite action movie. Okay, yes, the supposed 'plot' is a bit cliche and weak. However it is introduced rather late in the film. So, it doesn't get enough screen time to develop into anything other than a reason to like the girl; which is fine by me. The action more than supports the film. This film, ultimately, is about the transporter himself, not the hottie he ends up rescuing.
The editor of this film needs major awards!! The opening car chase is just phenomenal, any film student who watches this will be more than impressed. The shots, the angles, the speed, the cinematography, the editing. just WOW, man! The whole film is visually fun and exciting!!
As far, as character development, it's perfectly fine the way it is. I like the chemistry, it works. As far as the nimrod who can't figure out how Lai knew Frank's name, maybe he should try actually watching the movie with both eyes and ears open. It's obvious.
The acting works. Frank is a stud of a straight-shooter hero. Lai is a complicated Asian flower. The bad guys are over-the-top in a fun way. But who wouldn't be over the top if they had a missile launcher and bombs?
Luc Besson delivers a fabo one-two punch here!
I give this one a 9 out of 10 stars. Lose 1 point for a weak plot brought in too late in the movie to be developed.
