Jason Statham is a badass.
Really. Watch it, so that you can fully understand his level of badassery.

How would you compare it to the first?

I liked it a lot better, actually. The action is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay over the top, which is part of Statham's badassery. Some of the stuff he does makes you laugh at how ridiculous it is, and then think, "Holy shit, this guy kicks ass."

I saw it on Ebert and Roper, and I thought it looked awesome. I never saw the first one for some odd reason...but the action scenes...look so fake, that its so awesome.

If all he does is transport shit like I was hoping the first to be, I'll see it. If it's just another one where he transports one thing and has some conspiracy shit, I'll wait until it comes on HOBO.

He retires to Miami, and he's driving some rich kid around, then the kid get's kidnapped.
You know what rules? Private Joker from FMJ plays his dad.

That would rule, but it's still extremely freaking badass.
He's my favorite superhero now, and he's not even a superhero.

I've always liked him, back to the days of Lock Stock (btw see that).
As for the movie, I was happy to see that people were accepting it for what it was: a big, over the top action movie that's not gonna win any oscars but is a helluva lotta fun. I imagine that if they got rid of that "smuggling asian immigrants" plotline from the first one it was a lot better.
