Statham can do incredible fighting stunts, showing an unexpected gracefulness in someone his size. Corey Yuen, the director and stunt coordinator of the beautifully-rendered, adrenaline-pumping first film, showed an uncanny ability to capture all the action. The director of "Transporter 3" relies too much on quick-cut editing, making the action scenes harder to follow and appreciate. More troubling is the unnecessarily elaborate plot which involves some sort of ecological threat perpetrated by a corporation. The first two films managed to find something besides Martin's self preservation to compel the viewer to root for the hero. The environmental baddies are too esoteric to provide an interesting motivation for the viewer.
