5/4/2023 0 Comments Blade runner vex movies![]() Speaking of inexcusable ridiculousness, Hollywood still are dumbfounded of what Tony Jaa can actually do. The film may be incredibly dumb and lots of guilty fun, but this is inexcusably ridiculous. He just likes partying and apparently that makes him a vital crew member to save the planet. What is his speciality? He's a DJ who helps create distractions. However, one addition that I really just don't understand was Kris Wu who plays Nicks. ![]() Rory McCann is hired because of his ability to drive like a maniac and that just about makes sense but seeing as he's also The Hound from Game Of Thrones I can make an exception. ![]() Ruby Rose is hired because of her extreme sniping skills and Rose is a welcome addition. In the film, Xander is tasked with forming a team to stop the bad guys. It isn't exactly Cannes film festival material is it? Deepika spends most of her time in tight leather jumpsuits with a gun in one hand and a knife in another. Her acting doesn't leave much to be desired but let's face it, this movie was never asking for star-making performances. This film also serves as the first English-language film debut for Deepika Padukone, who apart from being beautiful (as are all the women in this film) handles herself when the shootouts come. No need for a stunt double, Yen is obviously the best part of this film. Even though his character is poorly written and his involvement in the story is muddled (as is the entire plot) when the action sequences come and there are plenty, Yen shines. The force is with me" so we're left with Donnie Yen just being Donnie Yen in a Hawaiian shirt and there is nothing wrong with that. Sadly, there is no "I'm one with the force. Behind Diesel is quite an extensive cast and kicking off the supporting characters is Donnie Yen. Unfortunately, Diesel doesn't have the knack for comedic timing so his little jokes rarely work. ![]() My only issue with Diesel is that Xander Cage has a tendency to spout these one-liners. He spends the majority of the runtime either swaggering along in his fur coat or doing the most unrealistic stunts with the aid of CGI so there isn't much acting to be done. It's nice to see him return to a role that helped launch him into the star he's become today. In total honesty, Diesel isn't bad in this role, in fact, he's pretty damn good. xXx 3 merely serves as another big action flick for Diesel to headline so he can have a break from the wheel of a car and constantly referencing 'FAMILY'. I'm not saying that Vin Diesel has a large ego or anything along those lines but when a significant portion of this film is simply girls swooning over him in a manner more ridiculous than Bond, his modesty does come into question. So which side of the fence did the third xXx film fall? The second xXx, with Ice Cube replacing Vin Diesel, was less entertaining and it took itself too seriously. It was dumb fun that never took itself seriously. As far as most Hollywood franchises are concerned, ones that needed a sequel such as Dredd, Zombieland and Wanted are always overlooked but alas, we get one about adrenaline junkies who are chosen to become secret agents and save the world. Instead, for a reason I genuinely am clueless too, a third xXx film has been made. It may have the ludicrous title and hilarious character names that could insinuate a link to a porno but trust me, it really isn't. Plot: Xander Cage is left for dead after an incident, though he secretly returns to action for a new, tough assignment with his handler Augustus Gibbons.Ĭast: Vin Diesel, Donnie Yen, Deepika PadukoneĬertificate: 12A (moderate action violence, sex references)
