Great Film: xXx
Lousy and incredibly entertaining
Let there be no doubt: The acting sucks. Even Samuel L. Jackson's
performance is mediocre and definitely unexpectedly so. The plot is
ludicrous, the characters unbelievable and the acting (oh, I mentioned this
already) dilettante. Effects had gone overboard and factualities of science
wildly disregarded. Yet! Yet, this movie was quite the entertaining one.
Subtly (purposely?) funny at places completely overshadowing the
dysfunctional slapstick that absolutely didn't cut it, and above everything
else - it didn't hesitate. The action was brilliantly choreographed and
impressively implemented.
- Thomas Nielsen
p.s. Samuel L. Jackson should really not have been here. He should've been
sitting at a table in a bar talking to Quentin Tarantino over a cup of
coffee about a prequel to Pulp Fiction or what not. He definitely should not
have been here. Definitely not.
