Transporter Refueled: Slightly corny, but very satisfying
Former special-ops agent Frank Martin is back in this gripping, edge-of-your-seat action flick. Now retired, Martin (Ed Skrein) is living a less perilous life and has left his former life as a special-ops mercenary south of France - that is until he falls in the clutches of a fem-fatal and her posse of three equally gorgeous women plotting revenge on a villainous Russian kingpin. This film is slightly corny but it's not really about the plot as it is sensation. It's about getting your heart pumping , engaging the sensation of feel rather than a confounding plot that you don't get until the billionth time. It's about speed; fast cars and fast women. It's not a film you'd bring your grandma to. And if you have a problem with that - well....let's just say you might have bigger issues to deal with. *** (three stars.)
