XXX: State of the Union (*1/2)

The best comedy of the year. Oh wait. It's an action movie. It makes the first XXX look like Die Hard. Ice Cube is a fine replacement for Vin Diesel, but the action in this movie is so ridiculous and unbelievable that it distracts from everything else. It feels like it's being directed by an eight-year old kid who is high on sugared cereal and has a two second attention span. Completely over the top, especially the car-monorail chase at the end. That being said, you'll laugh your ass off.
