Default Transporter 3

Just been to see it quite a good film but let down by the unrealistic car stuff.
He restarts a Audi S8 after driving into a lake!!
Not before he had floated it to the surface using some orange bags and the air out of the tyres!!
Still liked it though.

I dont give shit what people say or how much they slate it.
I love the Transporter films.

And Fast & Furious.
It funny in the second one counting how many times he shifts up.
That EVO7 has like 20 gears & about 4 in reverse. lol

I thought the first Transporter was fucking excellent! Great story, great portrayal, great camera work, great direction, great acting, GREAT car chases, just all round great film.

Second was a bit OTT in some ways, car stunts began to get a bit silly, but still a good film, and very enjoyable

So I'll watch the third regardless....

Same as I'll watch the 4th F&F film aswell - even tho they've all been a bit shit

i will go see it.i love the first two.and as said the second wasnt as good as the first due to its silliness but was still a good film.
tbh i dont watch them or fast and furious for believable films.i watch them for the fun factor

i saw it the other day as well, and it's just about sitting down and enjoying the stuff you see on the screen, regardless of hwo realistic it may or may not be

there aren't enough films out there now where you see peole beating each other up for the sake of it

I really enjoyed the first one!

I've still not seen the second one, but supposed to be seeing the new one on Wednesday night.

Suppose I should see the second one before then Does the story continue? Will I miss things if I don't see the second?

not really, it's just the interaction between the french copper and statham that connects the films, other than the fact he's still driving

but the shoot ups are good, as are the car chases, expecially the last one

Nice one!

I'll try and see the second before Wednesday anyway, but it's good to know I won't miss big parts of the third film if I don't

Went and watched it last nite with the missus......I enjoyed it...albeit the car stunts where a little OTT......like how the fuck is a W12 going to start after being under water.....I mean please....even the diesel Hilux on Top Gear had problems starting after being underwater...oh and after he'd smashed a window UNDERWATER.....come on!!!

But yes - enjoyed all the Transporter film...hopefully they bring a fourth out.

What did people think of the red head in it - I though she was rude....the missus thought otherwise - although she spent the whole film dribbling over Jason! LOL!
