Did I mention this movie sucks.SIFF2020 was shaping up to be our best fest yet, but with less than three weeks before it was to begin, the pandemic hit. Given the choice between this movie and the also-terrible Die Hard 5, I would take A Good Day in a heartbeat.

At least Ed Skrein would redeem himself with Deadpool a few months later. All The Transporter Refueled has is slightly better ass-kicking. At least Taken 3 had a good performance from Liam Neeson and a decent, if cliched, set-up despite its issues with editing and dialogue, among other things. One of the worst action movies of the 2010's, newcomer Ed Skrein tries his best as Jason Statham's successor and Ray Stevenson does a decent job as Frank Martin's dad but action sequences that, while not terrible, are a major step down from the original trilogy which were essentially martial arts movies in disguise, a weak story, production values that look outright cheap at times, cases where I strongly suspect that dialogue was dubbed over due to how haphazard it sounds and occurs when characters' faces conveniently aren't facing the camera and the Transporter being left out of focus in his own movie make Refueled a genuine misfire.
