Transporter 2

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transporter_2

For the ninth film of the month we have Transporter 2

First off, we have the story which has Frank looking after a young boy from Miami as a chauffeur until he is kidnapped and must do whatever it takes to save him. I thought the story was very entertaining and because of the characters and action it made a deserved sequel to the original film. 

Next, we have the characters which overall, I thought were mixed with Jason Statham as Frank putting in another excellent performance and his chemistry with Jack shone through and you could see how he cares for him. The villains for this film were much better in this film and more rememberable because of the actions that they pull to get what they want. some of the side characters didn't really work like the father of Jack or the french detective from the last film. 

Now we have the action which again just like the previous film was very entertaining and because of the bigger budget the film had more could be done which could ramp up the stakes along with the fight and chase sequences. As for the film's visuals I thought they were more refined in this film and because of the setting the cinematography could make the film look more rougher. Moving onto the tone of the film which managed to stay consistent from the last film having high action but also fleshed out moments between the characters to make them more convincing. I thought the soundtrack of the film of the film did well at adding to the tension with this having higher stakes than the previous film. 

Overall, I thought this film was another fun action move that continues where the first film left and improved a lot of aspects that were weak such as the villains while make the action and stunts bigger and better for a great time.

I give Transporter 2 a score of 7/10
