The transporter

The first one. Not bad, it has his style. It's clearly a big toy, not serious stuff, but sometimes that's ok. It's clear from the beginning, when our 'transporter' has been paid to drive to safety 3 robbers, but four turn up instead, and he won't move because that was not their agreement, now the car is too heavy! He's satisfied only when one of the four shoots another one, and now they are only three and he can start the car exactly the same moments the police cars are arriving, and the chase starts. A crazy chase, where the robbers are so scared they scream and one of them gets sick. He's called Frank Martin, ex military now living in France, and in the scene of the fight in the rat-boss' house it really seemed like a French movie .-p
He has three simple rules: 1 never change the deal, 2 never say names 3 never open the packages
He always lives by those rules, but one day for a twist of fate (or twist of screenplay) he has to stop because of a flat tyre, and finds a girl in the bag he had to bring to its destination, the house of a boss that will subsiquently try to kill him with a bomb. Quite annoyed by this, he goes back to the house and starts a big fight, then steals one of the cars there and goes back home. Incidentally, he saves the girl, and takes her home with him. No more afraid of him now, she tries to use him to her purposes with some half-lies, but she's a good girl, it's her father the bad guy working with the boss. He helps her because she's very pretty, because after all he was a soldier, and because not only they put a bomb in his car that should have killed him, but also launched missiles against his house which exploded while Frank and Lai managed to escape.
He goes after them, more chases and more fights, and in less than a day everything's done and they saved a lot of chinese people prisoners of those human-traffickers.
It's a big toy, it makes no sense, and as usual the hero is such just because he's lucky! The bomb goes off when he stops for a drink, for example. So many men after him and no one uses a gun! We know they have guns, they even have missiles, apparently! But no, why should they use guns!! So when one of them is able to surprise him, he kicks him. I'm sure he regretted that!
It makes no sense, but many action movies don't, this is just a big toy for boys who likes cars and action, but for the girls there is Jason Statham without shirt half of the time. It was 2002, he was 35 and quite fit...
He's also quite nice, he plays tough-guy, but then stops to get her a drink and pulls gently her hair away from her eyes, and also stops to buy drinks for the two policemen that he bound and put in the car, not knowing that there was a bomb in there, so unfortunately they die.
In this film he drives a BMW, then he steals a Mercedes.
