After watching Jason Statham steal scenes in Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels and Snatch, Besson gave him the lead in The Transporter, a bullet-riddled thriller about Frank Martin, a guy who, well, transports things -- including illegal cargo for some pretty nasty people, no questions asked. Frank's first adventure revolves around a conspiracy to kidnap and "import" a few dozen Chinese people, and although it builds to a predictably loud and ridiculous conclusion, a number of critics still had plenty of fun getting there. As Steven Rea asked for the Philadelphia Inquirer, "It remains to be seen whether Statham can move beyond the crime-land action genre, but then again, who says he has to?"
