Director: Olivier Megaton
Starring: Jason Statham, Natalya Rudakova, Francois Berléand
Latest installment in the Transporter series and since I liked a lot the two first ones, I had high expectations on this one. Let's do this with plusses and minuses:
+ Jason Statham, he is great as Frank Martin
+ car chases and fight scenes
+ plot in general
+ Berléand is always sweet
- the girl, I hated her, really HATED her, she couldn't act for peanuts!
- I noticed at least two gaffers
- plot if you start to think about it
Besides the girl Transporter 3 was an ok action movie. I really enjoy watching the fight scenes in Transporter films, they are so well choreographed (hope I spelled that word right) and the bicycle chase brought some variety to the movie.
Stars: ***
(I really like the way Statham uses his clothes for fighting. That way I get to see ass kicking and Statham without his shirt. No commenting on that E! He is a great actor too!)

And Behold! You became a fan of action movies...
Here's a better version of Transporter 2:

And _if_ you haven't checked your mail, i give you a name 'The Expendables' (go check your email).
Haha! That parody was funny!
And I did check my mail and you can have Randy Couture.
First of all, the transporter is gay trailer (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5iXPCxKZJRY) was brilliant (it actually made Statham look more cute, bizarre..)
Then, let's review this movie _not_ in a Statham Biased -way. I also go with the plusses/minuses:
+ was better than the 2nd
+ Berléand is always sweet (ditto..)
- worse than the 1st
- bad fighting scenes
--- some moves were speeded
--- & most badly cut
- plot
- the bitch (I'd think 90% even of the male viewers would like her dead)
By the way, did you also start thinking whether that chick carried any diseases?
Overall score: **
----------------------------------------
Now, if you wanna shake this movie and see some really good fights, choose e.g.
* S.P.L (ah, I'd totally forgotten that one a-must-buy for hard core fighting fans!)
* Kiss of the Dragon (you can see better versions of transp.3 beginning fight scene, or the "giant" scenes)
* Jet Li's Fist of Legend
* Jackie Chan's Supercop or Miracles (I think it was Miracles: the supercheesy movie with horribly bad plot but excellent fighting)
* China Strike Force
or if you wanna see a short but good fighting with a sword (to versus that pole-thing) choose Highlander Endgame
Cheers!
