| Welcome to the Now Playing Reviews Database where
you can find our opinion of films which have had a cinema release in the UK.
Each of these movies are reviewed from a gay perspective, giving them
both an overall star rating plus our exclusive gay rating. The more stars out of a possible 10, the
better the film; similarly the more pink triangles, the greater the gay interest. A full list of
all our reviews appears below, and this week's current films are found on the Now Playing Main Page.
Most films are now available for rent on DVD and we recommend ScreenSelect who operate an efficient online rental service by post with no late fees and you can keep up to 3 DVDs for as long as you like. If you'd like a film permanently in your DVD collection, then the best prices are normally found at Amazon. | |
XXX Movie Rating: 
Stupid But Entertaining | |
| Extreme-sports enthusiast Xander Cage (Vin Diesel) gets into a heap of trouble after driving a senator's Corvette off a suspension bridge. NSA Agent Gibbons (Samuel L. Jackson) gives Xander the chance to avoid a prison term, if he will become a covert secret agent and infiltrate a Russian anarchist group bent on worldwide chaos. | |
| This relentlessly stupid yet thoroughly entertaining movie has all the conventional elements of the espionage genre. Everything is just bigger, louder, faster, and more extreme, and the stunts are absolutely jaw-dropping. Diesel is the beefy engine that drives this souped-up vehicle, but the actors don't matter as much as the explosions and chases. XXX is kind of like a James Bond movie for headbangers. |
