Oddjob Pod - A James Bond Podcast

 The Action Movie Landfill is our side-project that explores the classic (or otherwise) movies made during the golden age of sell-through video. The film we have chosen for this edition, is The Transporter. Made in 2003 it is at the end of the golden age but was still a big hit on the DVD market. The movie is significant for tough guy actor and former diver, Jason Statham who had played memorable supporting roles in Lock Stock & Two Smoking Barrels and Snatch. In The Transporter, "The Stath" had a vehicle of his own.While not a stonewall classic, this low budget French action flick, co-written by Luc Besson, has a slick European feel combined with some high-octane Hong-Kong style action sequences. The moderately engaging plot serves to move the story from one action set piece to the next and it has a supporting cast that, it is fair to say, are doing their best. We really enjoyed talking about it and hope you enjoy listening.If you've not seen The Transporter, do so before listening to this podc
