Hey action fans. You know I didn’t steer you wrong with Ong Bak, so believe me when I tell you to get you hands on a copy of Transporter 2 as soon as you can. Jason Statham returns as Frank Martin in this sequel to the 2002 surprisingly successful original. And, if anything, the sequel is better. Better villains, better story, and even better action. There’s one sequence, in particular, featuring a fire hose that you have to see to believe.

Instead of plugging some other action titles, I’m going to use the second paragraph to recommend Hustle and Flow, another new release this week. Terence Howard gives one of the best performances of the year, giving great depth, emotion and empathy to a streetwise pimp trying to make it as a rap star. Hopefully he’ll get the Oscar nomination he richly deserves.

That’s it for now.

Bob out.
