Sholnay Posted September 20, 2002 Share Posted September 20, 2002 What a waste of life that movie was... I like AMC theaters review of the film: "XXX definitely fills every action film requirement and is packed with high-energy extreme-sports stunts. Unfortunately, some of the action sequences are a little too drawn out, especially after you've seen them in slow motion from seven different angles." Hits the spot. It would make a great dvd to show off a system, but other than that, if you havent seen the movie, DONT. ------------------ "we only came to kick some a$$... rock the f***ing house and kick some a$$" - Tenacious D(kyle quit the band) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sholnay Posted September 21, 2002 Share Posted September 21, 2002 Sound? Pfft!, i might like sound, but come on, it does NOT make up for a movie... no way no how. Why not just have a good movie with good sound? lol ------------------ "we only came to kick some a$$... rock the f***ing house and kick some a$$" - Tenacious D(kyle quit the band) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sj993 Posted September 22, 2002 Share Posted September 22, 2002 I like Vin Diesel, the fast and the furious was a good movie, though a bit farfetched, and XXX, well that was definitely farfetched... ------------------ I am Canadian!!!

Just Pedal Faster Posted October 2, 2002 Share Posted October 2, 2002 I saw the movie and thought it was contrived to the point that the writers only wanted a reason to do XYZ extreme stunt. Since I'm not a super-fan of extreme sports, I thought the movie therefore sucked major a$$. However, one of my female friends thought it was great cuz "Vin Diesel is SO hot!" Yeah, she said that and she's in her late 20's. Go figure. Now I don't feel so bad about liking Showgirls for the tawdry bits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m00n Posted January 4, 2004 Share Posted January 4, 2004 Just seen it. The acting was a bit cheezy in parts but overall I really enjoyed it. I mean CMon, Vin is not the worlds greatest actor on top of that it's an action flick. Knowing that, nobody should expect too much from it. It's a fun film to watch, I think I may purchase it.

BBB Posted January 4, 2004 Share Posted January 4, 2004 Don't forget, M00n, that there's a superbit version. It might look better on your projector.I think Vin is pretty cool but the girls....forget about it. They seem to fall over this guy.Lucky bum.

garymd Posted January 4, 2004 Share Posted January 4, 2004 I've been using the avalanche scene as a demo for months. The movie sucks but it's worth owning for the rumble value! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cluless Posted January 4, 2004 Share Posted January 4, 2004 Moon - You seem to be a bit late in some of your movie reviews lately, but anyhow... I thought the movie rated right up there with the rest of the super spy genre thrillers. Cheesey, sleazy, hip, flip. Nice thrills and action scenes. Fun! Fun! Fun! I just love them bad boys!
