'Transporter 3' - Film review

7 out of 10

Look, I know this film is rubbish. I know some of the sequences are physically impossible. I know there's limited requirement for acting or dialogue. But who cares?! Jason Statham fights 10 people at once, drives a big Audi with a lovely engine, rides a bike through a factory, jumps around a lot, fights some more people, uses his clothes as weapons, all without descending to the puerile level of Crank... Awesome.

There aren't any stand-out moments to match the fight on the oil-slick floor from the original Transporter movie but I was still applauding by the end. If you care about things like plot and whatever then don't bother. I you just want a laugh with some kick-ass stupidity, reminiscent of Jackie Chan movies at their best, I can heartily recommend this whole series.
