Did anybody actually LIKE this movie?


Everywhere I go, I see nothing but negative reviews and opinions about this movie. I watched it on FX a while back and actually enjoyed what I saw, though I haven't seen the movie in its entirety. However, there aren't a lot of positive opinions about this one. I am wondering if there are people on here who actually liked it and I know the people who did are in the minority.

I hated it.I barely tolerated this mindless action pack movie with Vin Diesel and now they replaced him with some bitch ass black rapper killing the entire white population of world.

Seriously, which sick fu*k wasted his time over directing this shi*? Sharktopus is way much better than this crap.

I liked it.Its better than the first.

I wanted everyone in the movie to die, the "artists" who did the "music" to die, and the writers to be forced to watch this movie over and over again a la clockwork orange style. This movie is just awful.

Well, I will say this, I am actually one of the few who actually enjoyed this movie.

it was good

I dug it. Not as much as the first, but it was mindless fun. Anyone who attaches too much significance to a movie like this needs a perspective transplant. It was just as good, if not better, than Marvel's The Avengers.

I considered this to be my favourite movie back in 2005/06, but I was about 12 at the time. I loved how it was just endless action, with as few 'boring talking bits' as possible. I tried watching it again about a year ago just because I realised how awful it must have been, and I was planning on just laughing at it, but after 15 minutes I had to turn it off since it is just so, so bad.

I don't blame you. This is a very difficult movie to watch if you're over the age of 13.

The original xXx was just dumb fun, nothing more, this sequel however...Is just dumb dumb. Not even Dafoe or Jackson can save it and the poor CGI doesn't help either.

...Doh!

This movie is/was horrible POS not only but including the horrible rapper Ice Cube who can't act jack s*it.

This movie is pretty good if you turn your brain off. I liked it better than the first one personally. The first one didn't really "wow" me at all because all the action scenes were boring as hell. To all those say Ice Cube can't act should watch Boyz in the Hood. Willem Dafoe was pretty generic as the bad guy but I really didn't mind. The only thing this movie is guilty of is having some pretty awful dialogue in some spots but I enjoyed it.

This film is soup of s***, that it actually makes you think that Vin Diesel is the greatest actor in the world.

. yeah i agree . .its fantastically BADD !! !! . . sooo now the 'hip-hip' mentality has made its way into the creative process of making movies ?? ?? . . the whole thing comes off as a fast-paced cartoon (( of sort-s )) !! !!

I watched this again recently. I like it. Honestly I think I like it more than the original, but it's been a while since I last watched that one too.
