xXx: Return of Xander Cage

It's the "Mission Impossible" assignment meets the "Fast & Furious" crew if they were into extreme sports instead of cars. A CIA official (Toni Collette) seeks out Xander Cage (Vin Diesel) because someone is dropping satellites out of the sky. As expected, you'll witness some outrageous stunts and highly stylized & choreographed fight & chase scenes in this game of betrayal & deceit. Besides Donnie Yen & Tony Jaa, look for some cameos & surprises in this slick action flick. Samuel L. Jackson also returns as recruiter Gibbons to explain to the Triple X Program to those xXx movie novices who missed the first two films. It's just a guilty pleasure over-the-top extreme stunt show to cheer for the bad boys who don't necessarily play by the rules but their hearts are in the right place. The film is a fun blast to watch with witty one-liners to make us smile. It's formula but who cares.

Alien gives it 3 "Dial 9 for help" stars out of 4.
