Transporter (1) is simply brilliant. Fantastic fight scenes and rollercoaster action that just doesn't stop. Jason Statham is excellent - it's just a shame hollywood is so hung up on always making it's heroes "american" even when they're not! One of the best action films I've seen in years. Transporter 2 isn't as good as the first - it tried to be too much the same film as the original - but it's still definitely worth watching. Get it for The Transporter alone, you won't be disappointed.

sometimes you can't win with these 'three for £x' offers. you look around frantically for something interesting and at times just end up picking up anything in a blind panic. sometimes this works, more often than not it doesn't.
it's hard to fully do these car crash pair of movies justice. in his book 'dawn of the dumb' charlie brooker suggests you ask your company marketing person about branding (after, of course, you've punched them). these movies are appalingly bad, with every cliche in the book, like a 15 year old's wet dream. what irked me the most was the constant product placement, which reached depths not seen since pierce brosnan was obscured by a bottle of vodka - laughably obvious at times. in fact maybe these movies were written and directed by marketing people, which would certainly explain a few things.
funnily enough i'm watching 'idiocracy' while writing this. nuff said
Brilliant

I really like both these films. Action all the way and Jason Statham is a really good actor he's got such a great acting voice aswell. If you like your action films they don't get any better than this.
Some of Statham's best

Brilliant. Both movies are great, even if some of the stunts in #2 are a bit unrealistic (watch the bit when he gets the bomb off the bottom of his car). Apart from that they are both great action movies with a bit of romance in the first one and the makings of a great movie boxset.
My verdict: Buy this set
the one that nearly got away

Not being a tv addict, infact being a social reluse i have to say i dont really watch much tv at all,its all doom and gloom, but i watched both of these films on a 'girls night in' and have to say they are superbe and absolutuley refreshingly different. The Characters, the acting, the fight scenes, the car chases, you're thinking 'oh ive seen it all before' and i thought that too, but i was suprisingly shocked at the fact i actually pressed the pause button to make tea! Im not big on buying DVD's, very few make it into my small collection, but these two are a must have and the type you wont tire of watching time and time again.
