Product: xXx (2002)
Rating: 4.0
Contrary to the bandwagon,
I find this movie rather good. I mean, of course its no Bond, it was never meant to be. I dont even think they were making it to be a parody of Bond. Forgive me for saying so, but most spy plots are recycled, editted, and squirted back out on the market for our eyes. As an 18 year old kid, I can never grasp what was so allluring about Bond, but I could grasp xXx. I mean, its not a movie for die hard Bond fanatics. Its more for kids who just want an action flick. Thats all it really is.I'm not saying the acting was superb, cause it wasnt awe-inspiring. I'm not saying the script was flawless, cause it was full of cliches. I'm just saying that if you go in to this movie with the intent of comparing it to the time-proven Bond flicks, you're going to hate it. But if you watch it with an open mind to take it for what it really is, I'll guarentee it grows on you.Besides, whats not to love about a bald, bulked up, hot muscleman with an attitude?
