CommentsXp Best movie ever!

Dynamixor The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

ThedevilChoose When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.

Justina The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

kdrussell-63452 The writing is well below average with both the premise of the stunts (although entertaining) and some of the dialogue; but the quality of the actoring somewhat helps make up for it. This makes it a great steaming movie on par with modern high budget action films that Vin Diesel also appears in.

Nicolas F. Costoglou ...is this movie in a nutshell. It has everything: Gadgets, Cars, Women, Guns, a doomsday device and a rich villain with many soldiers for our hero to kill.But Xander Cage is no trained spy, but a extreme sports fanatic and also a rebel against authority, and Vin Diesel, which are three points that make him even better than our tuxedo-wearing friend...The cinematography and editing is very good, mostly for the action sequences and (still) very impressive stunts.Also the special and visual effects are top notch for a movie from 2002.The style however is typical...typical Rob Cohen...typical early- 2000's EXTREME-nes. The music for example is pure early 2000's rock and hasn't aged that well, but the orchestral soundtrack is not that bad.The story is interesting and never get's dull, so that it's entertaining all the way through.It's a fun action movie, with a very entertaining lead and some incredibly impressive stunts...

Python Hyena XXX (2002): Dir: Rob Cohen / Cast: Vin Diesel, Asia Argento, Samuel L. Jackson, Eve, Danny Trejo: Vin Diesel has three X's tattooed on the back of his neck as if he could actually read them back there. He is a daredevil stunt person of impressionable ability who commits illegal acts. Once caught he is visited by Samuel L. Jackson who is scarred on one side of his face. Why this information is needed is beyond me but Diesel is sent on a mission in return for a pardon. Lame plot consists of numerous action scenes to place violence throughout as much of the film as possible. Directed by Rob Cohen who previously directed Diesel in the equally stupid The Fast and the Furious. The production is fine but that is about as far as compliments go with this sh*t. Diesel is typecast as this implausible hero who makes narrow escapes and kicks the crap out of everyone. Asia Argento is lifeless as his potential sidekick and romantic interest who can also kick the crap out of everyone. Jackson is perhaps the most laughable appearing with that stupid scar on his face. Eve also makes an appearance although it can be assured that it will likely do nothing to further her acting career. Action and violence at its most over the top render this one of the stupidest action films of the year. The only purpose this film serves is to reveal that filmmakers have too much money to waste. It should be met with a big black X. Score: 2 / 10

Terryfan I remember in high school a lot of students were talking about this movie xXx. Staring Vin Diesel, Samuel L Jackson, Asia Argento, among others.Just watching this film after so long of not seeing it made me think about how much my view point of it has change back then I enjoy it and I still do today but it's not a perfect film.Then again it wasn't set up to be that way but still don't think I'm bashing the film no sir no ma'am I'm not. I enjoy the film it just has been so long until a few months ago that I just watch it again to see how it holds up today.The story of the film features Vin Diesel plays Xander Cage an Adrenaline junkie who ends up getting the attention of Agent Augustus Gibbons of the NSA who recruits Cage for a job to become a spy for him.The Soundtrack of the film has a mix of metal and hip hop songs featuring Gavin Rossdale, Drowning Pool,Nelly, N.E.R.D., Queen of the Stone Age and much more. The theme of the film is "Adrenaline" by Gavin Rossdale which in it own right match the film and the character of Xander Cage so good job by the music department to pick this song as the film theme.What is the driving factor of the film is the action and stunts are pretty much out of this world. Some stunts almost think that was impossible for them to pull it off. But sure enough it was very well done which is enough to keep your interest. Some of the cast could have been do with out but Vin did well as the anti hero of the film since he wasn't intend to being in the mess in the first place but he was in it non the less.Some of the characters could have been better off not making it onto the film but what can you say about it but still I found the film to be enjoyable.With great stunts, tight soundtrack it's enough to enjoy the filmI give xXx an 8 out of 10
