Review of Transporter 2 (2005) by Charlene & — 05 Aug 2009

Makes the first one look like an Oscar nominee, and that's really saying something. It really goes to show how dumb and easily amused the mainstream movie-watching public is to largely regard this movie as being entertaining and about equal to the original.

It's god awful to a silly and almost offensive degree in every single way. The plot is out of the blue and terrible and doesn't even involve Frank Martin's transporter occupation/lifestyle.

The acting is pretty awful too, which you should expect but it's still hard to swallow. And it's another one of those movies where you see the hero surrounded by like 20 or 30 enemies, and you're like "Wow, how is he gonna get himself out of this one?!" and it just turns out that the answer is simply that no more than two enemies are going to attack him at one time while the rest just hang back and wait for their turn.

Overall completely over the top in a really stupid way.
