Transporter 2 (and other unnecessary sequels...)
Daniel:
Holy Crap.
I just saw Transporter 2, and it was so totally sweet!
La Creme, you just have no taste for fine cinema. The bit where he got the bomb off the car was magical. So was the bit where he flew the jetski onto the road. And flew the car between the buildings. And beat up all the guys with the hose. And then things exploded! It was sweet. The kind of movie that is so ridiculous that it's awesome, and the kind of movie they should make more of.
... and I really wish they still made Bond movies that were even half as awesome.
dessa:
i liked the original, it was just one of those pointless no thinking action films, they are lots of fun to watch coz they aren't all pretentious, they are what they say they are.
Inlander:
What the hell was Transporter 1?

It was less good than the second. Still pretty damn cool, though.
Vlishgnath:
'Transporter 2' had a different director than the original. This may be why the car chase scenes, fight scenes, character interaction, etc all seemed strangely off by comparison.
My personal theory is that the writing team (Luc Besson being something of a bad mother fucker in the foreign film industry) made the first movie happen, then Hollywood wanted to milk a sequel and forced a lot of changes they thought would help its marketability. Like changing the setting to America and having Lingerie Woman be a supervillian. All speculation, of course.
Also, 'Wasabi' (mentioned above) was written by Luc Besson as well.
