If this movie is any indication, I totally wasted my time recording stuff. I wasn't a huge fan of the first XXX, but it was goofy, fun, blow 'em up entertainment and it sort of grew on me with extra viewings on FX. But this sequel sucks beyond compare. I generally like Ice Cube in films, but this was horrible. The movie couldn't seem to decide if it wanted to appeal to the straight action crowd, the black crowd, or even the crowd that enjoyed the first XXX. The movie just feels all over the place and no place is interesting. Willem Dafoe even blows in this and his plan to wipe out everyone from the President on down the chain of command until he gets to be in charge is ridiculously lame. He plays the Secretary of Defense which according to the movie puts him 5th in line, so he has to wipe out FOUR people ahead of him to reach his goal! Anyway, the CG FX look really cheap for such a big budget sequel and while I'm fine with suspending disbelief for films, this one has about a half dozen "yeah right" moments. If I get to watch something for free, I generally don't care that much if it isn't that great because the price was right. But I'm actually offended I wasted 2 hours on this flick.

no stars
