Triple X starring Vin Diesel

[dj4mula]

K, I got to watch an advanced screening of Triple X starring Vin Viesel. After Fast and Furious, Vin and the same director return with Triple X. Vin plays Zander, an extreme sports junkie who gets recruited to help the CIA. Samuel Jackson plays his commanding officer. Sam plays very well as someone who someone controls Vin's character.

Vin is the next action superstar. When Arnold goes into politics (governor of Cali?!?!), Vin could possibly replace him. TThe action sequences IMO are mediocre. In some of them you could see the stuntman's face and knew it wasn't Vin. Extreme sport stunts are kinda lame. The storyline was great. So were the characters. Very humours, interesting characters. Also the scenery is great. Spots in Russia and the USA make the movie very interesting. Also the guns, gals and cars are great eye candy.

All this movie really needed was a better director. John Woo did MI:2 good, maybe if he was behind the director chair I would have like this movie more.

Is it worth watching? Yes, a good summer action flick, but there was so much potential.

PS - Rammstein, the German band makes a memorable apperance near the start. The guy spitting fire out of his mouth is awsome!

he is in a class of his own. vin has intellect as well as brawn. despite a little cornyness, (that scene with the restaurant tray was a bit much), this is a fucking sweet movie.

crooked king u must see this, the main villian wants anarchy almost as much as u do.

i liked it... i think i need to see it a few more times..

[desiRAWR]

I saw it last night and thought it was a really fun movie. I heard people tell me it had no storyline at all in it...I definately saw a storyline!

And the special effects were awesome. The only complaint:I knew his tattoos were sooo fake! It just bugged the hell out of me!
