The
Transporter Refueled 2/10
I just
watched Transporter Refueled and I'm not really sure that I know what
it was about. One of many things that bothers me in movies is
inconsistent fear. You can't cheer an hoot when a car is flying
through small streets and doing stunts and then getting terrified
when a car is going two miles an hour towards a fence. That actually
happens in this movie along with a lot of other outlandish bullshit.
I
actually liked the cheesy ass first Transporter films but this one is
so not those that I can't compare them to this. It stars Ed Skrein as
Frank Martin. Yeah, same name as Jason Statham in the first three
movies but ignore that. This guy is no Statham. The plot of this
movie is thinner than a model in the early 90's. Martin is set up by
a lady to do a job but it turns out she is tricking him and he has to
save his father who is also tricking his son because he is working
with this lady and her friends who were once prostitutes but now
robbing this guy that pimped them.
There
shouldn't be any sequels to this. There probably will be but there
shouldn't. No one is likable. I didn't give a damn when someone was
shot because everybody was expendable, even Martin seeing as how his
own father set his dumb ass up. I gave this a 2 instead of a 1
because there was this really cute Black chick at the beginning of
the movie who is not credited in any way. Skrein comes off as too
cool for the room instead of confident if that makes any sense. No
need to see this movie unless you just wanna hear tires screeching
every once in a while and mumbling accents.
