For three young men growing up in South Central Los Angeles, the "hood" is a place of drive-by shootings, unemployment, drugs and pain. But their reactions to the world around them vary -- one is an unambitious drug dealer, his brother is a college bound teenage father, and the brother's best friend is guided by a strong father who hopes for a better life for his son.

In The Transporter, Frank Martin, who "transports" packages for unknown clients, is asked to move a package that soon begins moving, and complications arise. In Transporter 2, Frank Martin surfaces in Miami, Florida and is implicated in the kidnapping of the young son of a powerful USA official.
