The formalism based on the equal-time Wigner function of the two-point correlation function for a quantized Klein--Gordon field is presented. The notion of the gauge-invariant Wigner transform is introduced and equations for the corresponding phase-space calculus are formulated. The equations of motion governing the Wigner function of the Klein--Gordon field are derived. It is shown that they lead to a relativistic transport equation with electric and magnetic forces and quantum corrections. The governing equations are much simpler than in the fermionic case which has been treated earlier. In addition the newly developed formalism is applied towards the description of spontaneous symmetry breakdown.
