Transporter 2

In this movie, sequel to The Transporter, Jason Straham does an amazing job portraying Frank Martin -a calm, keep-it-cool kind of guy that lives by a set of rules that he created-. An ex-Special Forces operative, nothing is quite to hard for him to handle. And he does everything with style. He reminds me of a rebel-James Bond, but with much more martial arts capabilities. This time he has to deal with obtaining a vaccination for a biological-warfare virus to save a boy that he promised he would never let harm come upon. One of his rules that he lives by is "Always keep promises." Which, it pretty much the backbone of the entire movie.
"Frank" has an amazing bullet-proof Audi that just about anyone would die to have, after watching this movie. Another car featured in this movie is a Lambourgini, but...I'll just say that it doesn' last very long.
The biggest downsides of the movie are its special effects scenes which look completely fake. Everything else was pretty good. Lots of suspense. Creative ways of kicking-asses...with a fire hose for example. The movie ended smoothly...but it leaves you with an oportunity for a sequel to this sequel, when he gets a phone call requesting a transporter.
Not bad.
