Review of xXx (2002) by Thequietgamer — 18 May 2017
It's essentially a spy movie with style and attitude of the extreme sports scene that was so popular in the early 2000's. It's a total dudebro movie at times and a little cheesy as a result. The plot is absurd and the stunts are ridiculous.
That doesn't make them any less fun to watch though. The thing that holds it all together is it's star. Only Vin Diesel is probably the only person with the charisma to pull this one off. Even when his one-liners are dorky the dude is just still all too cool.
He saves the movie from descending into cringe-worthy stupidity and delivers a very enjoyable action movie with exciting, over-the-top stunts. It's even a nice little breath of fresh air in the now all too stale genre of spy movies.
