THE SUBJECT OF THE CARRIER MOVIE
Frank Martin (Jason Statham), a former soldier, is a successful fighter and warrior. But he no longer has a job there, he works in a quieter job, and he tells some lies about his life to his friend, the French commissioner. He is a carrier. He sometimes carries normal people or packages, even criminals. As a surrogate for a reasonable fee, Frank is very serious and cool in his job. He carries what is given to him, without asking a single question, but the information given to him must be completely correct. Carrier Frank Martin himself, driving a black BMW E38 735iL, has exactly three rules and he doesn’t break them.
1) “Breaking the Deal”
2) “No name”
3) “Unpacking”
Everything should be exactly in the information given to him. He never looks at a package he is carrying and never asks to whom he is carrying it, even if he wants to be told. He always carries on with these rules. One day, while he was a carrier, the same men hired him to carry a package. It continues on its way by putting the package in the trunk. Frank Martin, who only takes one break during each transport, encounters something very interesting while opening the trunk during this break: the package is moving. Although he thinks he is a living thing, he keeps his cool, but in the end, he still can’t stand it, he opens the package. Inside the package is an Asian girl named Lai. The carrier gradually breaks all three rules and is now in trouble. Because in addition to those who want to kill him, now he has to stop a ship that is kidnapping Asians.
