The Transporter (2002)

This lean, mean slice of action-packed Europuddin' was a welcome tonic after the lugubrious Matrix Rehashed. Logic, of course, will get you nowhere here, but when you have a scene like the garage fight it doesn't really matter. For what it's worth, Jason Statham is becoming one of my favorite badasses -- he just has this presence about him. Probably best appreciated at 3 AM while drunk (that's what I did), but worth appreciating anyway.

Grade: B-
