: XXX

Decent actioner, but not really as James Bondish as promoted. Partly that’s because this takes place almost entirely in Prague, where a characteristic of Bond films is they go all over the world. I went in not expecting much from Vin Diesel’s performance, but he actually did a decent job. Action-wise, the film’s pretty cool, though the endless hard rock music in every action scene gets old after a while. The plot’s pretty typical of the genre: a mad anarchist is going to bomb the planet with a bio-chemical weapon in order to destroy all government. A little long, but above average.
