Movie Review: XXX-2: The Next Level

XXX-2 has got to be one of the worst movies I have seen in the last decade or so. It is unbelievably clichéd, has some really third-rate acting and assumes a very unintelligent audience. Some scenes that I particularly disliked:
  1. The way the geeky sidekick hacks into the DoD computers so easily and retrieves the troop movement detail

  2. Hijacking the civilian truck that has a concealed cache of high-tech weaponry

  3. The way Ice Cube's car, unable to catch up to the train with regular tires, manages to do so after climbing on to the rails and having the tires shredded (don't even get me started on how the width of the tracks is miraculously equal to the distance between the car wheels)
Oh, and Ice Cube had better stick to making music. He cannot act his way out of a paper bag.
