...as the "next big action star."
1) Acting ability.
Compare the quality of acting in "Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels" and "Snatch" to the wooden dialogue spouted in "The Fast and the Furious," "XXX," and "Pitch Black."
(Yes, Vin Diesel did appear in "Saving Private Ryan" and "Boiler Room," both of which were extremely good movies, but they were not "his" movies so to speak.)
2) Physical ability.
Ok, Diesel outweighs Statham by probably 10 pounds, but it is not fair to Diesel to compare the two in terms of physical abilities. Statham is an Olympic caliber athlete (which is probably why he competed in the 1986 Olympics). He has an extensive background in boxing as well as martial arts. Watch "The Transporter" and keep in mind that, like Jackie Chan, Statham insists on doing all of his own stunts and did not have the luxury of wires during his fight scenes.
3) Screen charisma.
So far, the majority of women I have asked have said they would prefer Statham over Diesel any day of the week when it comes to looks. To be fair, both Diesel and Statham have proven that they can hold a movie on their own, however anyone who compares the movies of the two can no doubt claim that Statham is more entertaining to watch.
Do the film industry a favor and support Statham's movies.
