XXX2

Advantages: Great action some good music in it
Disadvantages: none really

...I do like the second xxx 2 the next level better that the first. I hope they bring a thrid out, the way the second is left leaves it open for a follow up. Vin is a really good actor but he is hardly in the second of any of his films and this is no exception. The second one is more upbeat and positive. The idea of the film is to recruit seceret agents that have been "Bad" a little like assasin if you have ever seen that. The agents then go undercover, ...

XXX:EXTREME ACTION

Advantages: GREAT ACTION,AMAZING LOCATIONS,GREAT SCREENPLAY
Disadvantages: WEAK STORY PLOT

what can i say!if you are looking for performance in a action movie well then better don't watch it.BUT just the action sequences are awesome.no other word for it.guys who like fast cars,stylish clothes and VIN DIESEL i have only one thing to say .guys this one takes the cake.i loved the female,yelena(ASIA ARGENTO).she's hot. NOW,the details :story sucks,action rules,soundtrack is just fine for this genre and i loved the DVD as for action movies ...
...i can always catch up when i am free. One thing to be kept in mind before selecting any movie is the DIRECTOR.ROB COHEN directed "fast and the furious","daylight"and "dragon:Bruce lee story".all of them were great action movies so i can trust him. so,people just go through some price comparisons and just buy it.this one truly deserves to be in your action series collection. ...

Review of XXX (DVD)

A totally xXx-treme trip...sorry.

Advantages: My God, this looks amazing.
Disadvantages: My God, this film is daft.

...and don'ts' list then with xXx you can do no wrong. This is a Superbit release, which means it differs from the regular version in a number of ways. It is quite literally the best version you could own of xXx as far as sound and picture go. It is UK R2 which means PAL and not the inferior R1 NTSC version. The picture is absolutely crystal clear, flawless and diamond sharp, with lustrous colour tones. Reds and oranges are rich and energetic and the ...
...benefit both ways. 3. Rabid xXx or Vin Diesel fans without big screens who just have to own everything related to xXx. You will never need to watch your regular two-disk version after this, but I'd recommend throwing away that R1 full-screen edition, you sad, sad man. Essentially this is the finest version of a movie that is low on quality but high on adrenaline and daft fun. Despite seeming a little tame and kiddie friendly, seemingly wearing it's ...

Review of XXX (Superbit) (DVD)

You need to buy this boxset.

Advantages: Too many to mention.
Disadvantages: Pity there isn't more.

...one boxset. Let's start with Pulp Fiction, what can I say that hasn't been said already. This movie is a must see for all Tarantino fans. It starts with lightning pace and just keeps on going. The plot is intricately woven giving the audience dashes of dark humour, explosive action and senceless violence. The characters are colourful and exciting and it's the best sountrack to a movie I have heard in a long time. This is a must see movie. Jackie ...
...here, but it is still enjoyable to watch, it follows an airhostess who is caught in the middle of a war between two-bit criminals and the police. It has a soul soundtrack that oozes funk and with clever dialogue and a tight woven plot its an enjoyable film to watch. Now on to Reservoir Dogs, this has got to be my favourite of the bunch. The basic plot follows a gang of thieves that are known to each other only as colours. The plot grabs you by the ...

Review of Pulp Fiction - Special Edition / Jackie Brown - Special Edition / Reservoir Dogs - Special Edition (Tarantino Collection) (DVD)

Good Value for money

Advantages: 3 Brilliant films all within one box
Disadvantages: Not suitable for younger viewers

The box set is a set of Quinten Tarantino's three best films. The main context of the three films is drugs crime and violence and each film comes with its own superb storyline. Reservoir Dogs is based around a jewelry heist and shows the attitudes each member of the groups has. Every charecter has their own specific part to play so the viewer can see the situation from every angle. The storyline becomes more intense when they realise there is a ...
...loved the film although i had to watch it a second time to grasp the whole storyline. Jackie Brown starts by introducing an airport flight atendant who is caught smuggling in money from arms for her boss. The police decide to use her to try to catch the arms dealer. However the arms dealer, Ordell, has no hesitation to kill you if he suspects your talking about him so Jackie is caught between the two. She meets her bail bondsman and between them ...
