of the Union Movie Review |
Reviewed by
Marc Savlov :
XXX is dead; long live XXX. Xander Cage, the former
superagent-badass of 2002’s Rob Cohen-directed
XXX, has been killed in the line of kickassery, and
so NSA spookster Augustus Gibbons (a scarified Jackson)
recruits one of his old Navy Seal buddies to be the
new XXX. (The cause of death remains unexplained here,
but I like to imagine the swarthy Agent Cage was devoured
by a mechanical shark piloted by Captain Nemo while
parasailing the Matterhorn in the nude. While on fire.)
Wouldn’t you know, it turns out to be Ice Cube’s
Darius Stone, who’s spent the last nine years
sitting in the brig for his pesky attitude problems.

away excitedly after the semi-public screening of XXX:
State of the Union, and they can't shut up about what
a great movie this is, how it's "the best action
movie since Die Hard," one of them says. Why? "There's
not a lot of talking.". More..
