Editorial Reviews

There's nothing diminutive about Vin Diesel or XXX, the secret agent-espionage film in which the muscular actor stars, so it's not surprising that the accompanying two-disc soundtrack is just as punishing. On the rock-oriented album, electronic production zaps through Rammstein's machine-gun blast "Feuer Frei" and Queens of the Stone Age's rough-riffed "Millionaire," while Mushroomhead and Hatebreed's straight-ahead screamers pack a ferocious punch. Other cuts are more forgiving--Bush's Gavin Rossdale contributes a soaring, crunchy rock anthem, Orbital's zooming, danceable "Technologicque Park" is inky as a starless night, and Moby's hypnotic, simple-synth "Landing" features Azure Ray on vocals. The hip-hop side isn't nearly as pulverizing--Nelly's stuttering "Stick Out Ya Wrist" and Big Tymers' "Still Fly" are especially laid-back and chilled. In the end, the results are mixed--Rossdale's song is livelier than most of his output with Bush, and the Queens and Rammstein cuts jump with life, as do those from Pastor Troy and Joi. Yet overall the generic rap disc and growling sections of its rock counterpart falter, suffering from all-too-familiar tricks and lackluster lyrics--sending the entire album sliding into mediocrity as a whole. --Annie Zaleski

5.0 out of 5 stars A soundtrack worthy of it's movie, September 13, 2002

By	"sugarandspicekittyvcg" (WI) - See all my reviews

First of all I loved the movie. I went to see it three times and am not finished. When my friend bought the soundtrack of coarse I was right over there to listen to it. Now being a person that loves rock, but is not that intersted in rap, I thought the first CD was one of the, if not the, best soundtrack. The second CD, although it was not my type of music was worth listening to. I found myself in each scene in the movie as the songs played which made it more enjoyable. I recemend this CD to anyone who enjoyed the movie. I would say to anyone that this is the best soundtrack of the year, weather your interest is rock or rap, it doesn't get any better.

3.0 out of 5 stars Lots and lots of songs to skip, December 30, 2002

By	S. Sphar "clevelandgrrl" (Cleveland Heights, OH United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I bought this CD in a little fit of Vin Diesel-induced hysteria -- pre-ordered it even. I thought it would be a tighter soundtrack. Lots of songs you only heard snippets of in the film (which was forgettable anyway -- in spite of Mr. Diesel's lovely muscles). You'd be better off checking out the playlist first, and deciding if you want to make the investment.
