Review: "xXx: State Of The Union"

Ice Cube steps into action as the next super secret agent in xXx: State Of The Union (PG-13). In this sequel to the original, implausible borefest starring Vin Diesel (whose character is MIA - explained through death), Ice Cube plays Darius Stone, a prison escapee. Stone must save the United States by blowing things up and driving fast vehicles. I hated the first xXx, and from the first few minutes, I had higher hopes for this one. But once the guidelines are set, boredom sets in and any sense of logic is blown up. If it was at all worth seeing, I would say that it was a good popcorn flick just to have a little action. But I would be lying as this is about as fun as it is intelligent.
