Neither was a great movie, but I still found them both to be entertaining. They'd have been a bit better if they were slightly more realistic (jet crashing into ocean, car flipping & hitting crane to remove bomb, etc.)

For the love of god make them stop.

Second one was absolute garbage. Crank on the other hand was pretty decent.

1st one was ok for a mindless Friday night movie night with the wife, second one sucked much ass.

With the exception of the milf, the second one was craptacular. And it's hard to take anything Statham does seriously after making Dungeon Siege.

I concur with your statement.

Is it me or is Jason Statham rapidly becoming the next Steven Seagal/Jean Claude VanDamme? They keep throwing him into these cookie cutter action movies or just make sequels of any of the more original movies he's in that are half decent until they pummel them into crapola. I mean he's got a new movie every six months it seems like and probably a 40-50% chance it will be any good. I think he's going to end up like Seagal making so many movies they'll just start going straight to DVD.

I guess it's the whole "Quantity over quality" philosophy.

Agreed. But yeah, Transporter 2 was horrible. First one was decent, kinda.. weird.

The first one was good. While still being out there most of the stunts were at least possible. In the second movie every stunt was just so absurd. Hopefully the third will be more like the first.
