Sunday 2-25-07 Movie

Last night was an enjoyable experience. The movie I chose to watch was "The Transporter 2" on Blu-Ray disc. First things first, it was no where near as good as the first one. I loved that movie and hoped that the sequel was 1/2 as good and it was better than that. This movie has good driving and police evasion scenes. The action is good and the fight scenes are very well choreographed. I like the main actor, Jason Statham. I have seen a few movies he has been in and am impressed with his ability. I have enjoyed every movie I have seen with him in it. Anyway, here is the plot with a little back tracking to get you up to speed. Mr. Statham's character's name is Frank Martin. He is a driver and usually never even looks at what he transports. He does the job and does it well. This time he is a kid's chauffeur and promises to protect him. An assassin kidnaps the kid and gives him a deadly virus that spreads through the air. The main goal is to kill the kid's dad and all the people he breaths on because they are cracking down on the drug trafficking. Anyway, all ends well but the race and the fight to get there is the best part. I was a little skeptical about this movie, but it delivered a good ride. I give this movie a 7.5.

Sunday was the only day I watched a movie. Netflix didn't deliver my 3 on Saturday and that ticked me off. Next weekend should be a little more action packed on the television. I was also ticked because HBO pushed back the next episode of Rome. Great show and I look forward to it every Sunday at 7.

I haven't seen the second one, but the first Transporter was really cool.
