OK, but a letdown.
I dissapointed with xXx. I don't think it was a bad movie necessarilly, but simply, a letdown. It looked so exciting, it was being compared with 007, it was by the director of The Fast and the Furious, and starring Vin Diesal, but I just didn't like it that much. I mean, in Columbia, he was flying a gajillion miles high in the air without having jumped off a ramp. Then he's knocking old coke-snortin' geezers false teeth out by doing a tailwhip with his bike. And the superman he pulled while shooting guards, I mean, come on. I think Rob 'Think Playstation' Cohen tried toooo hard to appeal to young audiences and made it silly. & that 007 ...in the beginning rock concert thing was dumb. lalalala. The snowboarding scene was pretty cool, though, even though avalanches travel over the speed of sound. But that's ok. I like over the top sensation, and that scene was cool. But jumping on a motorbike in the middle of a puff plantation where the land is flat is just too much. oh well. c'est la vie. I thought the animation on the ending credits was actually the coolest part. oh yeah, Asia Argento was hot as........oh boy.
