TRASHING EUROPE [ummm.. Central Europe ....]
Or is it EuroTrash?Nevermind ....this vehicle bedazzles completely! A super DVD - worth anyone's extreme collection - great sound, visuals, action and THOSE - 'one-liners' - Out Bond's Bond.AND a welcome refresher to the stale old Bond .... HOWEVER,VIN DIESEL and ASIA ARGENTO ignite the screen.He is very much a 2002 hero ["Hi Octane?"] - 'She' along the lines of Dietrich -[and should star in a bio of that lady -all 'flaming destruction' ......] Excellent pairing.Despite the 'ultra-violence' it is still very PG-13 and should be enjoyed by that age - delightful excapist fun!Costumes? Somewhat 'Gaultier on Steroids' but very effective as is the Art direction AND superior sound design!Cannot 'wax too profusely' about the action sequences - especially the 'avalanche'.The villians? Somewhere bewteen a Goth Rave and Dracula ...talk about attitude! The only thing missing is the glamor ramp in this one - just picture perfect casting![Great tribute to "The 3rd Man" - Harry Lime and all that .....]
