In the south of France, former special-ops mercenary Frank Martin enters into a game of chess with a femme-fatale and her three sidekicks who are looking for revenge against a sinister Russian kingpin.
Storyline
Frank Martin, played by newcomer Ed Skrein, a former special-ops mercenary, is now living a less perilous life - or so he thinks - transporting classified packages for questionable people. When Frank's father (Ray Stevenson) pays him a visit in the south of France, their father-son bonding weekend takes a turn for the worse when Frank is engaged by a cunning femme-fatale, Anna (Loan Chabanol), and her three seductive sidekicks to orchestrate the bank heist of the century. Frank must use his covert expertise and knowledge of fast cars, fast driving and fast women to outrun a sinister Russian kingpin, and worse than that, he is thrust into a dangerous game of chess with a team of gorgeous women out for revenge. From the producers of LUCY and the TAKEN trilogy, THE TRANSPORTER REFUELED is a fresh personification of the iconic role of Frank Martin, that launches the high-octane franchise into the present-day and introduces it to the next generation of thrill-seekers.
User Reviews
When I herd they're going to make a new Transporter without Jason Statham, I went into the whole thing not expecting much. The Transporter, along with Crank pretty much made Statham the action hero worthy of being in The Expendables and the fact that he still relevant enough to keep going with the franchise only made the whole thing a turn off.
But I will say they tried their best to make up for his absence, but I really don't like the new guy in comparison. It's hard to replace the originally and he had big shoes to fill that never fit completely no matter how hard he tried.
It was a good idea to do a story that focus almost as much if not more on the Transporter's client than it does on the Transporter himself. It's reminds me of Mad Max: Fury Road which does the same thing, but Tom Hardy was a stellar choice to past on the mantle of Max than this guy was for the Transporter.
I did like Ray Stevenson as The Transporter's father, a charming ex- spy who gets caught up in his son's business.
The movie was far better than the similar movie Hit-man: Agent 47. Transporter Refueled has a lot of Stylish fight sequences and chase scenes that hit the mark perfectly, and Hit-man didn't, so if you're choosing between mindless action, you're better off with Transporter.
Overall, I give the movie a 5 and it would have gotten an 8 if Statham was starring in it.
