I remember watching ‘XXX’ about 15 years ago or something and thinking that it was a pretty standard action movie that didn’t really do anything that different or original, although I did like it when Vin Diesel said ‘Welcome To The Danger Zone’ for no real reason towards the end of it.

I was pretty surprised when it managed to get a sequel starring Ice Cube a couple of years later and I’m even more surprised that they’ve managed to rope Vin Diesel into returning for a third one, appropriately entitled ‘XXX: The Return Of Xander Cage’. It looks like your standard trashy action movie as Cage comes out of self imposed exile to track down a deadly alpha warrior called Xiang who’s in pursuit of a weapon of mass destruction called Pandora’s Box. Lol.
I mean yeah that looks fucking stupid doesn’t it? What the hell is he doing skiing through a jungle? What the hell is the deal with that ‘cool’ version of Voodoo Child? And is it really that big a deal that a guy who was in one movie 15 years ago is back for another one that looks even stupider?
I don’t know the answers to any of those questions, but I’ll probably still end up going to see this in 3D because it’s going to be a ride isn’t it, no matter how stupid and cliched it looks. Check out the top 100 one liners from action movies to get you in the mood. Welcome to the danger zone.
