I'd like your opinions on Transporter 3. Good action flick or not? Any decent fight scenes? Thanks

snoman_99 · 03-11-2009, 09:50 PM

its ok... didn't like some of the editing with the fight sequences. But the PQ & AQ are really really nice.

I thought it was good, not better than the first, but better then the second one. It had some pretty good fight scenes, a few good explosions. Its definitely a good blu, top notch PQ and AQ. I'll probably go buy it cuz I just rented it at first.

From the reviews, the PQ is supposed to be outstanding! As for the movie, I haven't seen it but it looked better than the second at least.

That's what I'm worrying about. I hate quick-cutting, badly edited fight scenes.

I haven't seen it yet, but according to a friend who loved the first two movies said that Transporter 3 was bad

snoman_99 · 03-11-2009, 10:01 PM

yeah there were too many fast cuts in the editing, and its really all uncalled for!!! going home to try one of those moves on Jen now hehehee.

It was a solid action film. Not as good as the previous two but I still enjoyed it and the action sequences are well done.

As for quality
PQ - 4.5 / 5.0
AQ - 4.5 / 5.0
extras - didn't watch

Overall, if you're a fan of the Transporter movies or Statham, I would recommend it but for anyone else, Rent it first.

+1, It was a blind buy for me, I had fun with it.

I really didn't like Transporter 2, and was hoping for something better for this one.

It was definately better than 2 but after it ended I just sat there and felt unfulfilled. I never got invested in the story, never cared for the girl, felt like all the fight scenes had been done before and better.

I enjoyed Crank much better than this.

Bring on Crank 2!!!

The DTS-MA 7.1 was excellent !
PQ ~ near perfect !
Good storyline (original)

The RED HEAD with A ton of FRECKLES HOT !!

Really bad fight scenes, quick cutting and I remember in one scene they sped up the fight a little bit. It's short but it's there and it's highly annoying to me. I have a hard time understanding the French detective as well, sounds he mumbles a lot. Good for a rent, no buy.

Psychonaut · 03-12-2009, 01:44 AM

The fights were sped up and some of the driving was obviously sped up as well, making it look clumsy. I thought the story revolved around a weak plot hole (had to have a reason for dialogue, I guess) and their chemistry was terrible.

I thought it was the worst of the three.

I will agree on the PQ and AQ, though.

langn08 · 03-12-2009, 02:24 AM

A great action flick with amazing audio!! Get ready to shake the house!!

ak808 · 03-12-2009, 10:13 AM

Just finished watching it and to me this was the worst one in the series. PQ and AQ were great though. The girl just started to get irritating after awhile. Fight scenes were horrible in my opinion. I really didn't care for the fast forward fight scenes.

+1. Terrible movie.

hostelmovies · 03-12-2009, 11:53 AM

The first is still the best of the series. This one is just about as good as the 2nd. It's really pretty and really loud.

But (BAD).........

#1. That girl, although hot is annoying.

#2. The story kinda sucks.

But (GOOD).........

#1. Jason Statham kicks ass in just about everything except Dungeon Siege.

#2 Robert Kneppler (T-BAG from Prison Break) is in it.
