I'm pretty sure Transporter 2 is the dumbest movie I've ever seen.

Reviews for Transporter 2
The sequel is a better film than the original, as if writer-producer Luc Besson had a clearer idea of what he wanted to do (and didn't want to do).
From bang-up beginning to blow-up ending, this trip is clearly just good escapist fun.
An otherwise cruddy-looking assemblage of action-sequel clichés that benefits from Frank's dry-cleaned monosyllabic intensity but suffers from just about everything else.
...the plot has some crucially unclear exposition, and the stunt concepts are insanely implausible...but, somehow, that doesn’t stop the whole from being absurdly pleasurable
The original Transporter was a surprise hit in 2002, and this second installment will not disappoint.
The movie is streamlined and of a singular, rowdy and rousingly delivered purpose. Hurrah for spectacle.
The scene involving a bomb planted on the bottom of Martin's Audi A8 is bound to provoke an astonished gasp of disbelief from even the most action-movie-averse viewer.
A vehicle for Statham to drive fast cars and beat the hell out of people, TRANSPORTER 2 provides a much-needed fix for action fans stuck in the late summer doldrums.
If you can make the leap alongside Besson’s limitless imagination, this sequel tops the original
