A film that should be retitled xXx2: Dont Say We Didnt Warn You.
If someone asks me to complete the review in single sentence then I would complete the task by sayingDerivative, uninspired nonsense but may please the male Saturday night crowd that it is clearly aimed at
Watching this film is like being with your current beau and yet constantly reminded of your ex. We all know that Xander Cage (Vin Diesel) is not the xXx in this show, and hes being replaced by Darius Stone (Ice Cube). Heck, I think the producers make the mistake of killing Xander Cage - mentioned in the movie as being killed in action in Bora Bora, Afghanistan, because in my opinion his character makes an excellent action hero.But while Xander Cages an extreme sports person, Darius Stone is more in your face, given his military background in covert ops, with a penchant for some fries and a shake. The original films delivery is more subtle, more elegant, while this ones more direct and in a way, nothing different from another action flick.
Plot If I can say that goes as Ice Cube is Darius Stone, former INS agent now in prison. He needs incentive to cooperate with the request for his assistance, and it comes in the news that someone is out to wipe out him and all former members of a group. So, either sit in jail and wait to be killed, or get out there and help hunt them down first.
The original was best in terms of special effects and action stunts the sequel is that much boring.I guess law of average working here Yeah.
