More ridiculously over-the-top action scenes take place, although I must say that I really enjoyed the scene where Frank takes out something like a dozen bad guys with little more than a fire hose. Using that information, he starts tracking the bad guys down one by one. As luck would have it, Frank has a friend named Tarconi (played by Francois Berleand) who is conveniently able to access the police database. At that point, Frank dedicates every waking moment of his life to finding Jack and getting him home safely to his mother.

After a series of ridiculously over the top chase scenes, they end up at the dock, where Jack is kidnapped and Frank barely escapes with his life. Before Frank can get Jack through the gate of his house, Lola hijacks the car and tells Frank to start driving. Such is the suspension of disbelief required to properly enjoy this movie.Īs it turns out, the baddies work for someone named Gianni (played by Alessandro Gassman), and the fake receptionist is his woman, Lola (played by Kate Nauta). Despite all the ammo and enough explosions to gut the place, Frank and Jack make it out alive. At that point, the fake doctors and fake receptionist become very cranky, and the amount of ammunition they unload is enough to make Charlton Heston a staunch advocate of gun control. After bursting into the waiting room, he just barely manages to stop Jack from getting injected with a very unsavory concoction. After several minutes of "doctors" mixing up their names and stories, Frank starts to get suspicious. Frank takes Jack to a doctor's appointment, but unbeknownst to him, some bad guys have shown up first. That part was not surprising to me what really surprised me was how utterly ridiculous it all was. Of course, all the groundwork has been laid for a kidnapping. All together now: ANow here's a tough pop quiz: What must inevitably happen when a butt-kicking tough guy with a heart of gold starts to bond with a little boy who's like a son to him? Luckily for Jack, he has Frank as a father figure. Jefferson has had very little contact with his son, and his marriage to his wife Audrey (played by Amber Valletta) is seriously on the rocks. Jack happens to be the son of America's newly-appointed drug czar, Jefferson Billings (played by Matthew Modine), but that's where the good times end. Frank Martin (played by Jason Statham) is still a driver, but now he lives in Miami, and he's a driver/mentor to a little boy named Jack Billings (played by Hunter Clary). I only saw part of the original Transporter, but I feel confident saying that it's not necessary to see the original to enjoy the sequel.
