The dialogue felt extremely forced and unnatural. I felt like the actors were constantly thinking about what their next Instagram post would be about. Transporter: It’s Ok, Go Ahead And Illegally Record It If You Have An iPhone Transporter: Because Look at Apple’s Stocks Transporter: Audi’s Feature Length Commercial In fact, there was so much marketing that I have thought up some alternative names that would be even more fitting than “Refueled.” You could take a screenshot of any given moment in this film, and I guarantee that it will look like a banner ad for either Audi or Apple. Secondly, Audi was EVERYWHERE in this film. Transporter takes place in a magical alternate universe where every single living being on earth owns an iPhone 5S. It’s been a long time since I’ve seen a movie with this much blatant product placement. Ok, now let’s talk about how this movie actually had enough money to be made: PRODUCT PLACEMENT. Most of them were choreographed very well, and they weren’t bogged down with unnecessary cuts and shaky cam. There were a few fight scenes that impressed me. The rest of the film is just fighting and clunky dialogue. But despite his job description, they only spend a few minutes of screen time actually doing the “transport” thing.

So pretty much, he’s the most expensive, shadiest, most dangerous uber driver out there. But it’s really important, very rich people. Yes, his job, as I mentioned above, is to drive people from one place to another in his Audi S8 (more on that in a minute). There was quite a bit that The Transporter: Refueled was lacking.

These characters were more expendable than some of the bad guys’ henchmen.Īnyway, I feel like I used way too many words to introduce the cast. I honestly don’t know why they (on this film’s very limited budget) went to the trouble of hiring three more actresses to fill roles that easily could have been eliminated by changing a few sentences in the script. Tagging along with Anna is a group of equally unrealistically attractive women who practically resulted in almost no change in the plot. (Ray Stevenson), and the mildly mastermind-like sidekick Anna (Loan Chabanol). Joining him is his financially struggling father, Frank Martin Sr. He drives really important people from really important point A’s to also extremely important point B’s. So, Frank Martin (Ed Skrien) is the Transporter, and his job is to, well, transport people. With that said, I personally believe it was a much better film than that of the Four.įirst I’ll try to convey to you some kind of summary of the storyline… Which really was all over the place.

The fact that Transporter made a fifth of the profits of Fantastic Failure suggests this movie was… Pretty bad. For some perspective, Fantastic Four, one of the worst flops of this year, made over $25,000,000 on opening weekend. By the time I watched this movie, it had accumulated a mere $5,000,000 for the two days that it had been released.
