When Frank's father (Ray Stevenson) pays him a visit in the south of France, their father-son bonding weekend takes a turn for the worse when Frank is engaged by a cunning femme-fatale, Anna (Loan Chabanol), and her three seductive sidekicks to orchestrate the bank heist of the century.

It's mindless entertainment with enough thrills and chuckles to make the time pass painlessly. Just don't examine anything too closely. Read full review

The Transporter Refueled comes up strong where it counts, with frequent bursts of ludicrously implausible yet coherently directed mayhem. Read full review

Stupid, stupid, stupid — and it certainly knows it. You might even chuckle contentedly at its knowing silliness — that’s sort of what this low-rent franchise is here for — but you’ll also miss Jason Statham, whose deadpan self-awareness somehow legitimized the ridiculousness of the previous films.

To be honest, this storyline is not noticeably stupider in theory than any of the other "Transporter" films. Read full review

Cheap silliness abounds, including car chases that are more about loud crashes and CGI than the thrill of speed. Read full review

I HATED the third Transporter because it was a tedious, joyless experience. This Transporter was a hell of a lot of fun. I was never bored, and was often jumping out of my seat during the action sequences. The lead character is solid, and his father is a great complement. More importantly, the 4 lades - who are the core of the film - are spectacular. Obviously, they're eye-candy, but not in an exploitive way - they're extremely smart, strong, and cunning. If you want to have FUN (especially this time of year), check it out.… Expand

So all we can really do is evaluate this one in terms of competence. Is it over all competent enuf to make money? I can't find the budget. It made $72 million; I'm guessing it made money. This means the script, producer and director are competent. Ed Skrein is more than adequate as are the rest of the actors and stuntmen, always a plus in Luc Besson films.

What stands out as not competent is the stunt choreography. Transporter 1, 2 especially are famous for their elaborately conceived and rehearsed fight scenes, some of the best ever done. The blocking-rehearsals for the fight scenes in the first Transporter used to be on Youtube and may be on the DVD. Very creative, everyone totally dedicated and camera moves worked out with much thought.

Here, the land fights especially are the weakest part of the whole effort. You can see the actors giving it their all; you can see the many good and original stunt ideas someone came up with, usually a group effort, but little attention is paid to camera moves. So there is no "ballet" at all. Nor is there quite the focus and intensity of Fury Road fight scenes.

Add to this there is no character develpment by design in this franchise and the overall effect, here in the US is of a movie made in the 1990s. Given all this we can understand why a mostly very competent film received such low scores here in the USA.… Expand

Ed Skrein is okay is the Transporter but he's nothing special. Ray Stevenson who played his father was actually the more interesting character though and that brings the film down because the main hero is not really your focal point. The story is a little congested which is probably because the storylines are being stretched fairly thin in this franchise. The rest of the cast is fine as well. There is really nothing revolutionary going down in the acting department and the villain is a little underdeveloped and boring. Still I can't help but get a little bit of enjoyment in this movie. The action was pretty decent at some points despite being very over the top several times it was at least entertaining. It is your typical "shut your brain off" action film its not good, but I'm sure there are plenty of people that will have fun with it.… Expand

I feel sorry for everyone who worked on this film. It's feels like an unintentional Sharknado. From really poor acting to the trivial plot....From saving prostitutes as a noble cause to jumping from JetSki's to car windows...It is just bad.

The best thing about Refueled was the Audi. Man, was that Audi stylish. The rest of the movie? Well, to simply put it, boring, rubbish and first rate crap.

Man, was that Audi stylish. The rest of the movie? Well, to simply put it, boring, rubbish and first rate crap. There is really nothing "Refueled" about this whole monstrosity, it's just like your uncle's old truck, decorated from the outside but smelly and crappy from the inside. The Transporter films were always injections of fun, and Jason Statham was actually a good action hero. Ed Skirin has one goal, save his dad while protecting prostitues and jumping Audis off of airplane ramps. And he MESSED IT UP. First of all, the action scenes were terrible, absolutely terrible, the DBOX viewing was tiring and aching, with no "jolt" to it. There is way too much damn talking, so DBOX is a bad idea anyways. Cars are hitting each other with almost pillow-fighting impact and Skirin is ultimately, unlikable. He just didn't HAVE IT. They could have revived the series with a better option than this guy or just killed the series immediately. No punch, no power, boring storyline, awful acting and much much more destroys The Transporter Refueled for mainstream moviegoers. Avoid.… Expand
