| | Professional Reviews | Variety 8 of 10 [Transporter] The plausibility factor is zero but the entertainment quotient runs fairly high in nimble actioner The Transporter 2. Effortlessly transplanted from the South of France to Miami, sophomore installment in what looks like a viable franchise has rip-roaring chase scenes, inventive combat interludes and a beginning, a middle and an end. Slick kidnapping yarn starts off like a bat out of hell and never sags...Statham continues to convince as the enigmatic but resolutely can-do Frank. Final line of dialogue implies he'll be back. - Lisa Nesselson Chicago Sun-Times 8 of 10 [Kiss] The movie looks great. The producer and co-author of the screenplay is Luc Besson ("The Fifth Element," "La Femme Nikita"), who lends his ace cameraman Thierry Arbogast to the director, Chris Nahon. They get a kind of gray-green, saturated noir feeling that's a perfect match for Karyo's face--the face of a man whose next visit to the confessional, should he ever make it, will take days or weeks. I like the movie on a simple physical level. There is no deeper meaning and no higher skill involved; just professional action, well-staged and filmed with a certain stylistic elegance. Jet Li is the right star for the material, not too cocksure, not too flashy. - Roger Ebert
