Synopsis

This amped action drama stars Vin Diesel as Xander (aka Triple X), a rebellious extreme sports star with a mission to defy authority and create anarchy. In the dramatic opening scene of the movie, Xander pulls an outrageous serious of stunts with the help of a band of similar-minded jocks, broadcasts the whole event live onto the Internet with a network of strategically placed digital cameras, and then avoids being captured by the squadron of police who pursue him. When Triple X is later taken into custody, Gibbons (Samuel L. Jackson), a representative from a government agency, hires the chiselled athlete and turns him into a secret agent with a mission to travel to Prague and collapse a dangerous terrorist cell operated by Yorgi (Martin Csokas) and the seductive Yelena (Asia Argento). Triple X is quickly drawn into Yorgi's lair, a stunning chateau situated in the mountains that is equipped with every high-tech modern amenity imaginable, along with a sizeable team of extra-large Slav bodyguards, a laboratory staffed by top scientists, and an always-ready gaggle of gorgeous concubines. Non-stop stunts, pounding hard-core music, elaborate sets, and inventive costumes make this Rob Cohen-directed adrenaline overload a visually exciting, aurally engaging, highly entertaining success.

4.0 out of 5 stars xXx it does what it says on the tin, 17 Aug 2006
Being a Vin Diesel fan this film was a must see for me. After seeing "Pitch Black" and "The Fast and the Furious" I like his calm and cool with a hint of casual violence thrown in for good measure. He has the ability to carry the roles he plays with absolute confidence in himself without appearing over confident or false which would be easy to do in such roles as these.
Ok the film is full of hi-tec impossible gadgets and more extreme sports stunts than a stunt-man convention. But the gadgets fade into the background as the stunts and very credible acting talents of Vin Diesel and Samuel L Jackson as the good guys supported by Michael Roof as the Tech-Head (the one supplying the previously mentioned gadgets) and Marton Csokas and Asia Argento as the baddies make the easy to follow plot whip along at break-neck speed.
Vin Diesel plays the extreme sports expert and adrenaline junkie Xander Cage press-ganged into working for Samuel L Jackson (Agent Augustus Gibbons) to uncover a gang of ex-special forces soldiers of Russian Decent hell bent on plunging the world into anarchy and that is all there is to it really, but throw it to the mixing pot the very well done introduction of Xander base jumping from a car being driven off a bridge and the imaginative tests for the induction into Gibbons agency, add a dash of excellent metal music then bring to the boil with lots of motorcycle stunts snowboarding and a sprinkle of the normal explosions in slow motion and you get an easy to watch entertaining action film. No it is not the world's best action film, no it is not the cleverest plot, no there are no massive twists and yes there are some corny gags and a few predictable outcomes.
All in all a beer and nuts film that you can watch over and over because there are always little bits of stunts that you have missed or a corny line that makes you smile. So it doesn't bother me that others don't like this film, it has two of my top ten favourite actors (Diesel and Jackson) and it is amongst my collection of DVDs, so it gets an 4/5 from me just because it does what it says on the tin.

5.0 out of 5 stars Totally Brilliant!!!!!!!!!!, 4 May 2005
Very good film about a man called Xander Cage (Vin Diesel)who is recruited for a secret agency by Augustus Gibbons (Samuel L. Jackson). He must stop a ruthless Russian Crime Ring from releasing deadly gasses into the Chezch Republic, Prague. A very good film with lots of nice cars. I went to go and see xXx2 yesterday and it is brilliant with Darius Stone (Ice Cube) as the new xXx. Lots of nice cars in that too.

4.0 out of 5 stars Turbo Diesel, 11 Feb 2006
By A Customer
Is this a great film? No.
Is it very entertaining? Yes!

Fantastic stunts, comic-book Russians, pretty decent CGI - great stuff. This 'Tony Hawk meets James Bond' totally outstrips Die Another Day...hooray!
