xXx (Vin Diesel Flick) - Blu-ray Forum

cvm · 07-26-2009, 02:19 PM

I've seen this on sale many times, but I have not ever seen it? Is this a worth a blind buy? I know that I would be buying an action movie that many would consider a "guilty pleasure" or a "popcorn flick".

What do you guys who have seen it or who own it on blu?

I was coming in here expecting a porn thread. I was disappointed

Are you sure.

Also, I would suggest renting a movie before buying it. That's what I do

Seen the film, have the film. Not great, but decent action, popcorn, mindless fun, guilty pleasure type of film. Not dissimilar to the porn thread I was expecting.

Buy it, a couple or more watches and you have made your money back.

Great film !

KilloWertz · 07-26-2009, 03:42 PM

I think it is a pretty good movie for that type of action movie. I can't comment on the quality of it on Blu-Ray though as I've only seen it on DVD.

Same here, I enjoyed it, at as owning on DVD (haven't picked up the blu copy yet...but will eventually), and of course since I'm a big Vinny fan, lol, that don't hurt either.

I thought the movie was horrible, I was lucky to get rid of the DVD copy I had that was a blind buy.

Big Vinny?...you sure this isn't about porn?

Vov86 · 07-26-2009, 04:16 PM

It's ok. Not great, but not that bad either

If you can get it at a good price, buy it.

He should have started the thread xXx to not confuse all you porn hopefuls.

xXx is a guilty pleasure of mine. I really enjoyed the hard pounding metal music with the stunts and action.

This was a very early Blu-ray release and so I believe the movie was released before Sony started releasing their best work. This movie could use a remaster and release on BD50 with AVC encode. It's a 3.5 start Blu-ray IMO.

Pretty OK action flick. I would like his x-ray binoculars.

Best line in the movie: "*****es, come!"

Opips, XXX is the title of a Vin Diesel action movie.

btf1980 · 07-26-2009, 11:05 PM

It's a pretty forgettable film. There's a reason why it's been in the bargain bins for eons.

Blind Buy Count: 172 PSN ID: cvm0305 Sometimes we hear of people who are “very” honest, “mostly” honest, or even “a little” honest. Should we even use modifiers with the word honest? I don’t believe so. There are no degrees of honesty. Either we are honest or we aren't.
