Finally watched XXX3

Just didn't feel like watching it to be honest... I knew what it was going to be... and it didn't surpass my expectations in the least. It was prettymuch the same as the first though the first of course actually felt fresh and fun. I was there, I was a bored guy back then decided to see this movie named after porn whatever the f this is, and had a blast...

Thought it was a great little twist on the james bond stuff, having a criminal take on criminals...

The funny thing is that when xxx came out it wasn't marketed or even thought of as more than a mindless silly action flick Diesel did besides his main movies....

It was kinda hard to stomach him in XXX3 he's not xander anymore. He's Vin Diesel pretending to be Xander, but in the first movie he's full Xander 100% Literally watch the movie, there's moments when Vin is not acting. He's playing himself... he just doesn't give a crap about the movie. He's done with xxx and rightfully decided to move beyond it...

It's like Jackie Chan coming back to do a sequel late as hell to rumble in the bronx. It'd be like, well... damn, you're getting kinda old to do this anymore.

Xxx3 wasn't made because it had to be made and we needed it, it was made cuz Vin's getting older and there's not going to be much chance to make it...

I don't know.... the ending is what made me feel off about the movie. I don't mind Gibbons (spoilers ) faking his own death and then walking in to watch his own funeral.. but is he just going to let the people who miss and love him just think he's dead? It just made no sense...

Maybe I'm missing something, but then again xxx was never a film that you gave much thought to or wanted to watch again really. It was a light popcorn munching stupid fun film.

This one was awkward. They toss so much stuff into the movie, none of the characters have an ounce of depth, it's just a bunch of actors having a party and literally one of the characters is a dj and just dj's the party that the actors attend. Jesus, at least give us a good story or yunno what continue the story from the first movie, catch up with that girl xxx got with in the end. She's gone, we learn nothing about her. It's like they didn't bother watching the first before making this late nothing sequel. Literally no body from that movie comes back besides sam and vin. That sucks cuz the side characters were pretty good in xxx.... ugh such a frustrating sequel.

Ruby Rose is excellent in it. Truly steals every single scene she's in. I was hoping she'd take over the movie and make it her own, but she wasn't allowed. Goddamn she's a freaking fairy from heaven or something, so otherworldly, one of those girls if you know what I mean.

Nothing special. I mean a million action movies all did what this movie did and better. Con Air this is not... Don't hope for that... more like heh, I guess xx2 though I never actually saw that one. But yeah one would hope by now Vin is above DTV type of action movies, guess he doesn't give a damn as long as it gets his son't tuition paid. I mean that's something to think about. Who did he make this movie for? The first xxx was made for me, my gen going through high school, they pumped out hot sexy action movies like clockwork back then. xxx made sense. who's xxx3 for? Can't be for the fans of the first. It's too damn late for that... I think Vin wanted to answer a question he  himself had that nagged him, what happens next for xander? Now we know, not much.... he's back where he started at the end of the film and nothing that happened in the movie mattered.

We learn xander's a pretty boring guy decades after the first movie, he's older, slower, hasn't grown or gotten a family, nothing, still living in the x-games era all by himself... and that's kinda a let down...
