Along the way, with the help of Inspector Tarconi, Frank has to contend with the people who strong armed him to take the job, agents sent by Vasilev to intercept him, and the general non-cooperation of his passenger.

    Statham isn't an actor who coasts, not even in a recklessly enjoyable picture like Transporter 3. He does the work, so we don't have to: His Frank Martin is the personification of pleasure without guilt.

    Though the car chases have grown more banal as the franchise has started to run on fumes, the smackdowns have retained their zing.

    As action movies seem to get more complicated and convoluted with international conspiracies and technological concepts, the "Transporter" franchise is refreshingly simple.

    Transporter 3 is made for airplane viewing, and not just any airplane: an Eastern European one, on the flight from Hrubbishnik to Slutnya.

    The accent from Rudakova was great addition to the movie and coupled with Statham's fighting Transporter 3 deserves a great review.

    "The best action movie in 2008, "Transporter 3" takes the action to the extreme, and shows off Jason Statham's "chops" in a way that Schwartzenegger or Stallone never could. Jason's turn last year in the critically acclaimed period drama, "The Bank Job, " hasn't kept him from flexing his muscles in this latest film."… Expand

    The movie, unlike its prequels, tends to focus on its cars and become alienated from the pure action it can deliver.
