Driver and muscle for hire Frank Martin returns in this sequel to the 2002 box office hit. Frank Martin (Jason Statham) is a former special forces officer who will transport anything anywhere for a price, and his latest assignment is acting as chauffeur for Jack Billings (Hunter Clary), the young son of politician Jefferson Billings (Matthew Modine), who has garnered no small amount of controversy for his aggressive efforts to stamp out the trade in illegal drugs. One day, Frank is to take Jack to the doctor for a checkup while his mother Audrey (Amber Valetta) sets up a birthday party for the tyke. However, Jack's doctor is not who he appears to be — he's actually Dimitri (Jason Flemyng), a Russian agent well versed in viruses who works with criminal kingpin Gianni (Alessandro Gassman). Dimitri and Gianni inject Jack with a deadly and easily spread virus, and demand a massive ransom from Jefferson if they are to supply the kid with the antidote. When Frank learns what has happened to young Jack, he sets out to find the culprits and bring them down, though his foes have stacked the deck so it looks as if Frank has been complicit in the crime.
