It was cliche galore.
Bad girl ends up with good guy
Hot chick is super sniper
Crazy guy is dare devil
Throw a crate full of guns and you're in like flint, no questions asked
Main person is a double crosser
Dozens of bullets won't hit you or just graze you
Can survive major car accidents
Main character always smiling, even in the face of death.
This move is bad and it seems only the braindead liked it.
Ouch!
Everything you described were elements in the very first xXx and it was a fun movie. It's entertainment. Not every movie is trying to win awards or be something it's not. Some films aren't meant to be taken so seriously. Ever seen shoot em up? It's just cool fantasy entertainment.
shareThat was probably the whole script LOL
shareI don't think people like you can accept dumb action entertainment movies, believe me it's super annoying when they're done wrong but when it's done right, like XXX 3 then it's groovy
shareI would agree with you but I honestly didn't think the sniper was that hot
shareI like kidding myself.
The movie was really good.
This movie was terrible. Well, it wasn't very good anyhow. It's actually a good deal more boring than XXX2. At least that flick had over the top scenery chewing from Ice Cube and Dafoe. Vin isn't channeling very much of the original xXx in this either. He's a lot more like his guy from Babylon AD. And OMG, the accents on these people. I'm gonna need to watch this with subtitles if I ever want to understand what anybody is saying. Even the stunts weren't very well highlighted. Best part of the movie was the opening scene of Xander hijacking some soccer for the people. A lot of the action is so over the top it would be pushing the believeablity in a Matrix film. And why does every character smile like a maniac nonstop? Anyhow, it's a wholly unremarkable action film with none of the charm of the first two. And what was up with the DJ guy? He was basically just hanging out the whole time. And was there a dig at Bourne in this? "What, you fighting with a book?" I thought that was sort of insulting, but I guess that's par for the course in a series that started out trashing on Bond. This flick was surprisingly one liner light. But still plenty of cringeworthy dialog. Just wasn't as fun as it should have been. The scale of things never felt very blockbuster worthy either. Whole lot of gun battles. xXx is supposed to be saving the world with his mad extreme sports skills, yo! It ended well enough. There's way worse sequels out there I guess.
