Saw it. I thought it was only alright. Honestly, it just wasn't as much fun as the first two.
The girl was pretty annoying as well. In fact - I thought she seemed a bit crazy. At least she was beautiful and great to look at.

Well I really enjoyed the 1st one on video last week....up until it turned into a silly "Jackie Chan comedy flick" at a certain point. I still may give T3 a try, mostly because the girl is hot and I like Jason, but at this point I don't know....

^That's what this series is all about - the over the top, tongue in cheek action. If you can't go with it, you won't like any of the Transporters because they all do that part way through.

Saw it the other night. I really enjoyed it. It needed a little bit more action, but overall it was closer in tone to the first than the second. Good to see the inspector back. The only scene that had me 
was the dam scene. That was up there with the crane/bomb in the second. There's over-the-top, and then there is completely fucking ridiculous.

You know I heard once that some of these actresses are given the love interest part because the lead wants to bang her and all the time they spend together makes it pretty easy. I'm guessing this was one of those cases.

I have to agree with most of the folks here. I liked it, but the chick was annoying. Fight scenes were good. Works well within the series.
I hope they make another one.
I've never seen an ep of Prison Break, but I thought the villain was pretty good.

I finally watched this yesterday and overall I really enjoyed it with the exception of the Valentina character and the somewhat weak plot.
The action scenes and stunts were great and I enjoyed seeing the Detective again.
I absolutely hated the actress and character. IMO, she's probably the least attractive of all of Statham's leading ladies. The freckles just bugged the crap out of me. For a suave, mature and cool guy like Frank Martin, I found it hard to believe that he would be attracted to this immature, bratty Euro-trash party chick.
Robert Knepper was actually a really good villain and was a solid nemesis to Martin.
Overall I would give this a 7.5 out of 10.

Finally rented it, and liked it better than the first two. Lots of impossible action, and impossible driving. The kidnapped girl was cute as hell too.
