Edition Clarification , June 7, 2008
Since this website tends to lump reviews from other editions of the same movie(s) all together, I thought I'd just point out what's actually inside the box, just in case anyone is as confused as I was.
This is for "The Transporter Collection", the box of which has a bar along the top that says "Includes Both Explosive Feature Films!" and a photo of Statham leaping through the air with two guns drawn and aimed, and the bottoms of his shoes visible.
Inside this box are both movies, each in their own retail plastic case, just as if you would have bought them each at any store. You could theoretically just toss the outer cardboard sleeve if you want. I'm keeping mine, but it's not necessary except as something to keep the two retail versions together.
"The Transporter" is the "Special Delivery Edition", same as the retail version. Anamorphic Widescreen 2.35:1 Region 1 NTSC Full-length Audio Commentary by Actor Jason Statham and Producer Steven Chasman, 15 minutes of Unrated Extended Fight Sequences Not Shown In Theaters with optional commentary by Statham, Chasman, and Director Cory Yuen, Behind-The-Scenes Documentary, Storyboard-to-Film comparison, A look At Making Transporter 2.
"Transporter 2" Anamorphic Widescreen 2.35:1. Otherwise, no special features.
I didn't include a review of the actual movies, since others here have done that better than I could. This was intended merely to help others like me, who may have been confused by the lack of information. If I've missed anything, please let me know in the comment section, and I'll try to address it, or someone else can.

Remember the Rules, March 31, 2008
Transporter DVD
Transporter is a high action movies involving an ex- special forces soldier who earns his living transporting "packages" for various clients, mostly shady. In this movie the transporter ( Jason Stratham )violates his own rules( he's real big on rules ) and looks inside the package, doesn't like what he sees and doesn't complete the delivery. Bad idea, now the client is after him, along with the police. True movie is set in the French countryside so if you don't enjoy the thrill-a-minute action, just enjoy the view.
Transporter 2 DVD
In this sequel to The TransporterJason Stratham is in Miami working as a chauffer/bodyguard for a wealthy family who springs into action when the young son of his client is kidnapped. The movie is full of high action car chases and stunts. Set in the beautiful Miami, Florida area, so again if you don't enjoy high action movies, just sit back and enjoy the view.
Highly recommended for fans of Jason Stratham , James Bond movies, and high action movies, especially car chases.

Always follow the rules, August 3, 2006
To be honest, my expectations were not that high when I first saw "The Transporter." Both movies, however, in this set are great. There is a lot of action with some excellent stunt work by Jason Statham. The fight scenes are intricately choreographed. What elevates this over many similar movies is the detail to writing. There is much humor sprinkled through out both. This set of films also avoid the problem that many of this genre have in that the story merely repeats itself in the sequel. That does not happen here. Both are well produced and fun to see. Break the third rule and look in the package.
