'Transporter 2' puts the action in 'action movie'
by Tom Hallman
Ask yourself one question before you see "Transporter 2":
How much action do you like in your action movies? Because "Transporter 2" is 88 minutes of it. Wall-to-wall. The only breaks in the car chases, boat chases, plane crashes, machine-gun fire, explosions and martial-arts fight scenes are occasional shots of Jason Statham's cool-as-ice stare or quick, matter-of-fact retorts. Like that, and you like the movie.
