Summary: Lame acting with some good action. Rent it - Don't buy it.
Review: I would rate this movie as just "Interesting". The acting is terrible and I started to get tired of all the one liners. Vin Diesel did an ok job for a B-Actor, but the supporting actors acting was laughable. It reminded me of the cheesy robo-cop movies. I found the action on par and pretty good. Better than high profile movies such as Mission Impossible 2 (Although, the motorcycle stunts are quite far fetched.) This movie was interesting to watch, but just that. It was ok to watch once, but I wouldn't buy it.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Much Better if compare to Die Another Day
Review: The movie itself is lousy but the special effect and the stunts are really top-notched. Vin Diesel should learn more about how to become a better actor but before doing that, he should learn how to focus his eyesight. His eyes seem to be always unfocused and without any energy and passion and not as sharp at all as it should be by playing this kinda role. The script itself is by all means a very bad one but still passable as not too ridiculous, a typical 007-like movie. The guy is strong but again, there is no heated energy radiating from him. The EYES, yes, he should work on his eyes to be more sharp and with more energy, passions, emotions and feelings, without these key elements, he would always look just like a robot in those Terminator movies.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: very believable
Review: I like this movie because it's believable. Vin plays xander, an extreme sports slash bad boy type person. He is recruited to help save the world from a disaster. Usually this kind of formula doesn't work. This movie was right on with the characters, the dialog, and the stunts. This movie will work for you if you love vin, action movies, and extreme sports. And the coolest thing is you get to see tony hawk, eve, and a few other celebrity faces.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: a chic's POV
Review: This move had a decent plot, but not the greatest. You get to see Vin half naked, and a lot of cool stuff blows up. It is worth it for the special effects

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Triple Bad!!!
Review: This movie doesn't even deserve one star. Vin Diesel is the worst actor. For ANYBODY to call him the "new James Bond" is sad and laughable. Say what you want about Roger Moore's performances as James Bond, Vin Diesel could NEVER compare to him and he was the worst James bond ever!! The stunts in this movie are awesome, but the acting and plot is HORRIBLE!! I felt ashamed that I watched this movie because it insulted my intelligence. This movie was SO bad and to think it was a block buster hit!!! Vin is sexy (although he sometimes force it), but nothing and I do mean NOTHING should excuse him for making this mess. C'mon Vin, do better next time!!

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Twitchy action film
Review: Alot of explosion, alot of death defying extreme stunts. Vin Disel give a decent performance, but don't hold your breath for any Oscars. The plot is feasible, I suppose. A street wise spy hired by a secret government organization to infiltrate a hostile group and find info. And what's a good action film without a gal the hero can fall for?

There really isn't any suspense while watching the movie. You pretty much know that our protagonist will pull the job off and get the gal. And you also know that when there is a need for it, he will do heroic deeds, and think with a mind of a genius. The main antogonist is a cookie cutter villan: someone with great power who wants to create as much mayhem as possible.

I enjoyed the film, but am regretting BUYING the DVD...

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Absolutely Excellent
Review: Vin Diesel was extremely good in XXX. Every action sequence had eye-pooping special effects, and they just kept coming and coming. I recommend this DVD for everyone. Also, the extra features are very good. There is plenty to watch, and it really gives you more knowledge on some aspects of the movie.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: complete sxxxt
Review: I have a bad habit of buying films before i see them and sometimes it pays off. Donnie darko, trainng day and memento to name just a few but then you get that film that is so awful, your embarressed to have it in your dvd collection. This is that film. To summarise: Worst storyline of any action film ever, some of the worst acting i have ever seen,Vin diesel is awful as an an action hero and it is shot very badly as well making it look [bad]. Stay away form this [movie] unless you are an american, as apparently they like this sort of [thing].

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: James Bond as Sluggo!
Review: Okay, they blow stuff up real good in this one. So I'll give it 2 stars for stunts and pyrotechnics. And it gets itself over with quickly enough and doesn't waste too much of your time, so another 1/2 star. And if you're of a certain age, this tatoopiercedmuscledtuffguy might appeal as he swaggers about doing nastyforeignhipbadguys and foxybabesluthos. That it adopts the dopey James Bond quips and archaic attitude to women is just part of the genre I guess. Anyway, mindless noisy fun, forgotten the minute it's over. Diesel's act could fade fast.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: The worst script and acting in a long, long, long time!!!
Review: I saw this because I had heard it was good. I mean it did really well at the Box-Office, so I figured, this cant be bad. Thought it would be a high-octane Bond movie. But to even mention Bond here would make every Bond ever, puke. (including Timothy Dalton). The way this movie starts says it all. Vin steals a Car and runs it off a bridge, then jumps out and parachutes down before gravity takes over. Sounds cool doesn't it, but hold on, as he is driving the car he is looking into a camcorder he has with him, broadcasting his adventure over the airways, and amidst the banter he actually says "you have entered the Zander Zone". What the ...!!! And it does not get better after that. For the next 45-50 minutes I sat there and heard cheesy line after cheesy line until I just got feed up and turned it off. Admittedly I did not see the entire film, though I seriuously doubt it got any better. The Fast and the Furious was a decent movie over all it had its problems but it lacked the cheesy lines. And though XXX had Samuel L. to try and give it some credibilty, even his role was far under par for him. Though he did not have a line as bad as the "they called me mr. glass" banter that ended Unbreakable, his performance was still horrible. When they make XXX 2, they should just make it a silent film, then it might be entertaining because you would not have to listen to a ... script. Everyone involved with that script should look for a new career because that was horrible. Over all I would not wish my worst enemy would have to sit through this film. Personally I would rather check out the new Steven Segal flick, though he is the worst actor ever born, he does not try the cheesy line bit.
