xXx (2002)
Rob Cohen’s 2002 take on the spy thriller, xXx, isn’t for everyone (especially those who take life a little too seriously), but this movie is a damn good time. Vin Diesel plays Xander Cage, an extreme sports enthusiast with an underground following who is recruited by the NSA to pull off what other, more traditional spies could not: infiltrate a terrorist organization before its leader, Yorgi (Marton Csokas) can spread anarchy around the world.
With more than enough death-defying stunts that would kill anyone not named Xander Cager, xXx is a high-octane thrill ride that proves Vin Diesel can carry an action movie on his own, even if a lot of it doesn’t make sense. Let’s just hope we finally get to see xXx 4 one of these days.
