Product Description

Ex-Special Forces operator Frank Martin (Jason Statham) lives what seems to be a quiet life along the French Mediterranean, hiring himself out as a mercenary "transporter" who moves goods - human or otherwise - from one place to another. No questions asked. Frank's newest transport seems no different from the countless ones he's done in the past. He has been hired by an American known only as "Wall Street" to make a delivery, but when Frank stops along route, he notices his "package" is moving. Violating his own personal rules, Frank looks inside the bag, finding its contents to be a beautiful, gagged woman.

Set Contains:

New to the Special Delivery Edition are a short storyboard-to-film comparison and a 35-minute documentary that is significantly better than the routine 12-minute featurette on the original DVD. It covers the car stunts, Jason Statham learning how to twirl a knife, and cast and crew interviews translated from French and Chinese, emphasizing the film's various international backgrounds. Retained from the original DVD are the 12-minute featurette, a commentary track by Statham and producer Steven Chasman, and three extended fight scenes. The new DVD offers the film only in widescreen, while the original also had a pan-and-scan version on the flip side, if that's an important consideration. --David Horiuchi

5.0 out of 5 stars Move Over, Bond. Here's Frank Martin
Reviewed in the United States on 14 January 2006

Jason Statham is the jolt in the arm that Western action films needed. His appeal to me recalls a latter day Steve McQueen. Aside from being up to physical demands of the role in a sly understated way Statham gets into the skin of Frank Martin, disillusioned ex-Special Forces officer turned amoral transporter for unsavory parties. The film is a great hodge-podge of American, European, and Hong Kong action styles. Director Cory Yuen manages to comfortably weave edge-of-your-seat car chases, gunplay, and hand-to-hand combat into the film's narrative. The film's basic plot of Frank having a change of heart after uncovering a white slavery operation has resonance and doesn't come off as a cheap ploy to engender sympathy for Frank. Definitely an action film whose reputation will grow in time. Bring on "Transporter 3". I'm listening.
