Storyline

Frank Martin is the best in the business. The ex-Special Forces operative hires himself out as a mercenary "transporter" who moves goods--human or otherwise. Very simple, he delivers, no questions asked. Frank has relocated from the French Mediterranean to Miami, Florida, where as a favor to a friend, Frank is driving for the wealthy Billings family. There's very little that can surprise The Transporter, but young Jack Billings has done just that; Frank has unexpectedly bonded with Jack, age 6, who he drives to and from school. But when Jack is kidnapped, Frank must use his battle-tested combat skills to retrieve the boy and thwart the kidnappers' master plan to release a virus that will kill anyone with whom it comes in contact. Written by Anthony Pereyra {hypersonic91@yahoo.com}

Trivia

This film is dedicated to the memory of Michael Stone who was director of photography and who died in an auto accident on 29 July 2005. See more »

Goofs

Errors made by characters (possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): All through the movie, Gianni Chellini's name is mispronounced. He is obviously Italian, and so his surname would be pronounced "Kellini". It is instead pronounced as it would be in English; "Chelini". See more »
