XXX 2 – The Next Level – Review

30 April 2005 No Comment

The HIVE gets attacked and Xander Cage is killed in Bora Bora, even though they don’t show it and Vin Diesel isn’t even in the movie. Gibbons (Samuel L. Jackson) is then left to recruit a new XXX (Ice Cube) and discover the reason behind the attack.

XXX 2: THE NEXT LEVEL smacks of Lee Tamahori’s influence, he also directed THE WORLD IS NOT ENOUGH and XXX 2 intro credits looks like a modified James Bond intro. His direction takes a thin story and puffs it up to A Grade fluff.

XXX 2: THE NEXT LEVEL is completely driven by action. The supporting cast is made up of excellent actors. It may not be the best action movie made; it may not even be worth a second watch but is definitely entertaining. If you’re bored and want to be entertained, and like Need For Speed Underground, then XXX 2 might be your poison.
