I know films take a huge amount of effort in being made - especially high production value films like this. However I must say that the result here is infuriating at best. Fighting scene physics, driving physics... everything all over the place. People magically moving from one room to the next between "camera angle changes" and the main actor had not a cat's change in hell filling the shoes of his predecessor. Despite some very clever choreography, it is obvious that actually he can't fight very well at all. If you don't know the first thing about fighting and you haven't seen the previous Transporters, then maybe, just maybe you would give this a second star for effort and budget. Personally, I stopped watching it well before it finished. I hated it.

Ed Skrein pulls on the black suit and tie, slips behind the wheel of a black Audi and becomes involved in an audacious plan by a former sex slave worker to get revenge on her sex trafficker boss. A plan that involves The Transporter's dad. A definite step up from the last poor film, the car chases are high octane, the fight scenes slick and Skrein gives the character of Frank Martin a new energy. The reboot the series needed!

So stupid to have done this movie without Jason Statham. It should have been tweaked and NOT called 'The Transporter.' I thought the fighting was rubbish really, too much to live up to, and Jason never lost. This was good in some scenes having your mind guessing what will happen next, just without Jason I have to say crap.
