Fast cars, explosions, women in scantily clad attire, incoherent plots, over-the-top villains, and catchy music. Essentially, this is just another Fast & Furious movie. Especially when it contains countless one-liners that do nothing but put a smile on my face from ear to ear. Or, at least the dialogue coming out of their mouths is awful.īut does a film like this really need to have great dialogue? I guess not. The humor is there, but in no way do I believe it's intentionally funny. xXx certainly has fun action, but that's about it. Now, the Fast & Furious franchise has figured out the right balance of lighthearted humor, bada** action sequences, and developed characters who we actually care about.

What's not to like about it? Heck, even the horribly awful things are entertaining.īack when Vin Diesel decided not to come back to the Fast & Furious franchise, he chose to join F&F 1 director Rob Cohen in taking on another ridiculous action extravaganza, xXx. If any future filmmakers are looking for inspiration in the guilty-pleasure high octane action genre, xXx is exactly the film to look into.
