The Transporter RefueledHappy Labor Day long weekend, Tribute readers! You probably felt like this week would never end, but it’s finally Friday and along with all your long weekend plans we also have a new selection of movies that are hitting theatres today.

If action is your thing, The Transporter Refueled makes its debut across Canada. Ed Skrein takes over Jason Statham‘s role as Frank Martin a.k.a. The Transporter; the best mercenary and driver money can buy. He’s faithful to his three rules: no names, no questions and no renegotiations—until he meets the dangerous Anna.

Opening in Toronto and Montreal, the documentary Meru tells the story of three highly skilled mountain climbers and their attempt to scale the big wall of Mount Meru in the Himalayas.
