Day 699


Aka Sunday 30th December 2018

Today I watched ‘XXX: The Return of Xander Cage’, which is almost an okay film, lots of spectacle and splash, but very little heart…I’d seen the first ‘XXX’ years and years ago, and it was dumb, but fun (James Bond if James Bond was an extreme sportsman)…but this sequel has lost the fun…and replaced it with smugness...and I can’t be bothered too think about it any further…except to note that the film portrayals the good guys as complete dicks and you kinda hope that the bad guys kill them…and why on Earth did they think that it would be a good idea to have one of the good guys by an EDM DJ. The main thing the film does is make you hate extreme sports people. 3/10.
 


…and I collected my lottery winnings, a grand total of £2.70 and a net profit of 20p, hooray!!!, almost enough to retire on…
