Wow. Vin Diesel is 57-years-old? Not really, but I am. And I haven’t lost my love of action movies with loads o’ guns. I’ve already blogged about Hollywood’s anti-gun hypocrisy so no more about that. Suffice it to say, the two previous xXx movies had some pretty awesome gun handling, fantastic as it may be. And I approve of any movie that either warns of government fascism (e.g., The Hunger Games) or makes people paranoid of violent evil in general. As this one does. Can’t wait.

  1. I loved the latest Riddick, but xXx isn’t exactly begging for a(nother) sequel.

    Also are we going to see more content contest reviews?

  2. Ok, so if the third one is XXX was the second one XX and the first X? Don’t recall seeing any of the series.

    • Didn’t miss anything. A bunch of ridiculous and impossible (in the real universe) stunts by characters who supposedly have absolutely zero fear of death or permanent disability.

      Kind of like Fast & Furious without the hot cars and fast girls.

  3. The horror of another movie with the soundtrack of voodoo child, fantasy gun handling, the ever present walk away explosion and oh for giggles and emerging pubic males….riding a skateboard.

    I’ve crossed the geezer threshold and pass on this “entertainment”.

  4. Have you noticed that Hollywood is only capable of making sequels and re-makes?

    I have. As I noted before, an original thought in Hollywood would die of loneliness.

    But since I like Mark Sinclair (aka Vin Diesel), I probably will see this movie. BTW, Diesel just turned 49.

  5. I saw the first one. It was stupid, flashy, and actually kind of fun. I’d say this one will probably be worth watching when the pirated versions come out on Putlocker, but I definitely wouldn’t pay to see it. I pretty much never pay for movies or TV anymore. For one thing, I can’t afford to just throw my money around; and even if it’s mostly pointless, I feel virtuous whenever I think about my money *not* going to Hollywood.

    • John Wick rules.

      The YouTube of Keane Reeves training in three gun for the sequel is excellent!

  6. The first one was garbage, didn’t see the second because Ice Cube is not an action hero in my book, so I have no hope for the third…

    If I wanted to listen to a tatt’ed out, bald, knuckle dragging character who thinks he is God’s gift make dumb yet arrogant comments, I could hang out with my cousin.

  7. One of my favorite scenes from the first xXx movie; a Russian guard is walking past another behind a PKM, and he asks “How’s it going?”
    “Life is shit!”
    LOL

  8. If you saw the second XXX movie, it was said early on that Xander had been killed in Bora Bora.

    • Ya, I wonder how they are going to attempt to explain that? My guess is the whole “I pretended to be dead so I would be left alone” trope.

    • Retire = agency tells everyone you died, less people come looking for ya. Hence countries keep ‘dead’ spies, etc on their ‘lists’ because you don’t really know if they died.

      Do want new xXx movie, it hasn’t been totally burned out unlike certain endless recycled rehashes.
