xXx: State of the Union

“Prepare for the next level.”

Darius Stone (Ice Cube) has a criminal record and a habit of throwing himself at extreme sports, and he wants nothing to do with the government. Agent Augustus Gibbons (Samuel L. Jackson) recruits him anyway as the newest xXx, sent after a conspiracy led by Secretary of Defense George Deckert (Willem Dafoe). Lee Tamahori puts Ice Cube behind the wheel and the camera right beside him, all engine noise and speed.
