Critic Reviews

Stephanie Zacharek

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. Read full review

Mike Mayo

Overall, the production has the polish and pace that producer/co-writer Luc Besson's work is known for. Any complaints about the lack of substance are pointless. Read full review

TV Guide Magazine Jeremy Wheeler

Though this third installment is not quite as nuts as the second film, it's nevertheless firmly set in the same ridiculous mold. Read full review

Marc Savlov

Transporter 3 is so far over the top that it more than once spills into outright cartoonishness. Read full review

Marc Mohan

For those disappointed in the grim, gritty feel of the latest James Bond movie and who long for the absurdity of the Roger Moore-era entries, Transporter 3, ought to fit the bill. Read full review

Elizabeth Weitzman

Statham could do these movies in his sleep by now, so he gets credit for offering up so much dry wit. In fact, while Rudakova makes a painful acting debut, Statham appears more engaged than he has in a while. Read full review

Peter Hartlaub

The fight scenes are lackluster and the plot is needlessly complicated. If you're making an action film that centers on fast cars and fast women, it's usually best to keep the rest of the story simple. Read full review

Um pouco mais obscuro,com mais excelentes cenas de lutas,e cenas de arrebentar na ação,Jason Statham Rocks!!!.
Infelizmente é a última parte da série com Jason Statham mas terminou bem.

Now, Transporter 3 got me wondering- is it good? Well, sort of. The action expands and Statham is pumped up. I LOVED the first two, and this one doesn't dissapoint either. But it has many flaws that make it unwatchable. But if you are a fan like me, you'll love T3. Jason's back baby!

I enjoyed the action scenes, but the dialogue was pretty horrible. It seemed the only real appeal to this movie is the action scenes and the plot was somewhat ignored

This movie is slightly below the first two on thrills, and seems a bit unfocused. Still, Transporter 3 delivers the adrenaline these movies carry, just in smaller doses.

Not much to say about nothingness...
Except that the characters are stereotyped and that 'Transporter 3' is one of the most unglamorous and traditional action movies I've seen. The female character is as annoying and tasteless as shallow since she is only here to showcase her body. Acting isNot much to say about nothingness...
Except that the characters are stereotyped and that 'Transporter 3' is one of the most unglamorous and traditional action movies I've seen. The female character is as annoying and tasteless as shallow since she is only here to showcase her body. Acting is horrid. Dialogues are flat and awful, punctuated with many and many cheesy lines. The rhythm is bad. The overall montage is terrible and overly cut.

The only things keeping this movie away from the 0 out of ten is to search on its choregraphies and its brief moments of lucidity and inventiveness.… Expand

EPIC. FAIL. Seriously, one of the worst movies I have seen in my life. The CG was awful, the dialogue was AWFUL, and the action scenes (especially anything with cars involved) were laughably unrealistic. You know a movie is terrible when they have to fast forward the car chase to make it EPIC. FAIL. Seriously, one of the worst movies I have seen in my life.
