Donnie Yen starred with Star Wars: Rogue One and xXx: Reactivated. But who, of Chirrut or Xiang, is the most badass? In any case, the competition is tough!
It’s been thirty years since Donnie Yen makes films, thirty years that he spent half turning to Hollywood. But, it must be admitted, unless he is a fan of martial arts movies (or Highlander), his face still remains unfamiliar. Finally, ” remained ” one should say. Because in one month, the actor and martial arts expert is found showing two huge American feature films: xXx: Reactivated, that just came out today , playing the role of alpha warrior Xiang and Star Wars: Rogue One , in which he played the warrior monk Chirrut Îmwe. And between the two, you are told that our heart is swinging. Let’s face it , he fight with a stick or he confronts his enemies with bare hands, Donnie Yen has a crazy class! But suddenly, in melty, one wonders. Of Xiang or Chirrut, which would ultimately win over the other? Not easy to answer this question. But hey, that does not stop us from trying anyway!
Chirrut clearly has what it takes to emerge as the most character badass . Already because it is able to flank a thrashing to a group of Stormtroopers with a simple stick – and while being blind. Then his faith in the Force is so powerful that he can face all situations with the utmost calm. We all remember this scene where he crosses the battlefield of Scarif while he is being targeted by blaster shots, right? Moreover, it does not fold, to Donnie Yen, if Chirrut faced Darth Vader in Star Wars: Rogue One, he would win . You will understand, this former Guardian of the Whills is a formidable warrior. But not only ! Because he has a deep wisdom that allows him to gauge people, which does not make it a bore of first. On the contrary, Chirrut is a character who knows how to be humorous, if only in his interaction with Baze Malbius, with whom, it must be admitted, he forms a sort of old couple. In short, Chirrut has it all . And in addition, he always looks cool in dress and, just for that, we would give him the first place!
Except that Xiang is a formidable competitor! You saw him demolish these soldiers with fists and feet in the trailers of the film? And without seeming to make the slightest effort? But the worst part is that besides being an outstanding fighter, a highly trained warrior, Xiang does not feel as the big bad they want us to believe! His motivations are unclear but, as he himself says in the trailer, he is ready to die to save the world. And this kind of statement, it has still enough to impress us. Besides Xiang has a rival as talented as him in xXx: Reactivated: Xander Cage (Vin Diesel), which is itself already stronger than Dom Fast and Furious. If the two characters are alike in more ways than one, they are also elbow-to-elbow in regards to love of risk and crazy cascades. In short, more badass than Xiang, does not exist. Or almost. Because even though it is conquered by his power and agility, he has not this little mysterious side that characterizes Chirrut Îmwe and that makes it even more fascinating . But, in between, the choice is clearly difficult! And for you, which one is the most badass?

XXx Reactivated: Diesel Wine in 5 Key Roles!

sivertime — Wed, 18 Jan 2017 19:02:09 +0000

Vin Diesel is making its big comeback in the skin of Xander Cage in xXx: Reactivated. For the occasion, we return to five of its most important key roles!
You hoped for it, you expected it, there it is! Xander Cage is back in cinemas in xXx: Reactivated , the third installment of the license launched in 2002. And it is obviously that Vin Diesel reprises his role as the athlete of the extreme become CIA agent. Needless to say that the character and the actor have lost none of their power … or their taste for risky stunts (that’s an understatement) and the insane actions . As we suspected, so, Vin Diesel is THE star of this xXx: Reactivated , acceptance still share with a strong team including where there are Donnie Yen and Deepika Padukone. For although he played only once Cage’s role, it is still part of the characters who have marked and shaped his career as actor. But as it is not the only one – and that the release of a movie with Vin Diesel is always an event – the editorial ‘of melty back on five key roles it has been interpreted in film during his life .
Dom Toretto
It obviously starts with Dominic ” Dom ” Toretto, the character he plays in the saga Fast and Furious . And Dom, Vin Diesel knows him well since he has been lending his features for over fifteen years now. Finally, with a small pause between 2001 and 2009. However, his return in the fourth film of the franchise marks the renewal of it. And Dom has probably become one of the heroes of hardcore action films. At the same time, how could not we have loved this character not true? Not only the guy is crazy and takes all the risks, facing the most unlikely situations at the wheel of his car, but in addition, there is nothing he would not do for his people . Although he is a criminal, he remains an honorable criminal! Finally, all that could change in Fast and Furious 8 since Dom seems to turn against his family . But hey, we are ready to (almost) forgive everything!
Xander Cage
Crazier, more daredevil than Dom, is not possible? Well, what! In the ” sick man of extreme, adrenaline junkie ,” so there’s Xander Cage, Vin Diesel began to incarnate in 2002 in the first xXx . It is very simple, this guy is a crazy! While he did not ask anyone – except that he was allowed to risk his life as a professional stuntman – he was recruited by an NSA agent, Augustus Gibbons (Samuel L. Jackson), and who find themselves overnight playing the agents infiltrated with a group of terrorists. But hey, the more the situation is dangerous, more Xander gets off . And we once again proves this xXx: Reactivated, skiing dangerously in the jungle , facing a fighter as strong as him and putting his life on the line every time. Fortunately, on this one, he is not alone and he can count on a shock team. But let it be said, it is he, the most crazy and the most effective of all (and who best wears the coat of fur …)!
Richard B. Riddick
We forget fairly often, but even before becoming Dom Toretto on camera Rob Cohen Vin Diesel had already lent his features another hero badass of a franchise SF very dark : Richard B. Riddick . And again, the character of the actor is a sort of anti-hero who fuck more the funk to his companions than he really reassures them! It must be said that with his scowl, his protruding muscles and his strange eyes hidden behind dark glasses, he has something to impress. But unlike Dom and Xander, who remain quite positive character, Riddick, he is rather violent kind and does not care too much for those around him . Vin Diesel will play three times the powerful mercenary between 2000 and 2013, even giving voice to the animated film The Chronicles of Riddick: Dark Fury .
Shane Wolfe
When we call Shane Wolfe, we belong to the Navy Seals and we eat the terrorist at breakfast, looking after five kids should not be a big challenge. Well, think again! In The Pacifier (2005), an action comedy which was a great success at the box office on its release, Vin Diesel plays … nannies. But be careful, not just any nanny! For Shane is of course on the cover to find a secret program on which worked a government agent. But then, the rebels and not very cooperative children it makes him see all the colors . So to be accepted, Shane must teach driving to one, teach Scouts to defend themselves and eventually even convert to the theater. And that while confronting ninjas out of nowhere. What is certain is that with The Pacifier , Vin Diesel does not take itself seriously at all!
Groot
And when he does not play the big guys or antihero badass , Vin Diesel is engaged in the exercise of dubbing! That’s how we find him in the cast of the Guardians of the Galaxy in the role of Groot, the talking tree. There, it is not a matter of giving bounces or jumping into the void (whatever …) but rather giving life to a creature only constituted in CGI. And it must be admitted that the actor does not get too badly! With one sentence – ” I called Groot ” – he manages to convey the emotions of our adorable Groot and succeeded (almost) to be understood. So, we wait to hear the baby voice Groot in Guardians of the Galaxy 2 , knowing that Vin Diesel will make it as tough as cute! In which of these roles did you prefer it?

XXx Reactivated: 3 reasons to see the movie!

sivertime — Wed, 18 Jan 2017 18:44:42 +0000

Today, Xander Cage finally reappears in our dark rooms thanks to xXx: Reactivated! Here are three reasons not to miss this film to action completely insane!
And here it is! After 15 years of absence, Xander Cage is returning to the cinema today. In this month of January promising – including La La Land and All on Stage – xXx: Reactivated arrives in our cinemas, where it all well aware detonate. Literally . Vin Diesel takes back the crazy role of the extreme sports athlete who has become a spy on behalf of the CIA and that, just for that, we must put the package. And yes, as you surely already know, our hero is obliged to leave his exile and resume service when Xiang (Donnie Yen, who still classifies him in all circumstances) and his group manage to fly in the offices of the CIA A particularly dangerous weapon: the Pandora’s Box. This makes it possible to take control of all the military satellites orbiting the Earth and thus, necessarily, to cause catastrophic damage. So history to end so flashy to Xiang activities, Cage began to recruit a team of madmen and venture like him , who include the sniper Adele (Ruby Rose), DJ Nicks (Kris Wu ) And Tennyson (Rory McCann), a pro in the car collision (yes, yes, that exists!). Ah, and do not forget the very chatty Becky (Nina Dobrev) who represents their logistical support. As much to say that it will fart! The editing of melty gives you three reasons to go see this action movie completely insane.
The return of Xander Cage
And of course THE most obvious reason, it is the return of Xander Cage ! For it is not because he passed away for dead that the character has lost its stature. Well, we like Darius Stone (Ice Cube), who replaced him in xXx: State of the Union , but that is not the issue. Xander is the king of extreme stunts, that mocks the authority and who has only one desire: to do more massive, always take bigger risks . Find Vin Diesel in the role of phlegmatic criminal has all the fantasy of the fan that we imagined no longer realize! And as usual, the actor gives himself to the bottom, nervous muscle ball, imposing and tattooed silhouette that accomplishes the most crazy stuff possible and which defies gravity as if nothing had happened. In short, out of the movie theater, it no longer knows which of Dom Torreto in Fast and Furious or of Xander Cage in xXx: Reactivated is the big guy !
Xxx reactivated, diesel wine, xander cage, nina dobrev, becky
Nina Dobrev in geek mode
She was with us for 6 years in the roles of the serious Elena Gilbert and Katherine Pierce in the fascinating series The Vampire Diairies . And now she comes to the skin … a real geek of the CIA who tends to talk at random when she is under pressure. Ah yes, to say that the change is radical! You imagine, you, Nina Dobrev fangirler before Vin Diesel? No ? Well xXx: Reactivated did it anyway and it’s fantastic! With its large glasses screwed on the face and its rapid rate, Becky is also probably the best comic relief of the film – especially when she decided to take action. We warn you right now, our high-tech geek fan is not very comfortable with a gun in his hand but it still proves very precious for our daredevils team .
An adrenaline shoot
You saw, this excerpt from xXx: Reactivated in which Vin Diesel skiing in the jungle ? You thought he could not do more crazy, more delirious? Well, think again! The film puts the package in terms of action scenes, all crazier than the others. There are the cascades of the sick, of course, but also bastons where Donnie Yen shows all his mastery of martial arts and chase pursuits on land, on sea and, yes, even in the air. xXx: Reactivated is a film that breaks the eye and ear, explosions do you want in here, and that leaves speechless. We do not hide from you that certain sequences of action do not always seem very credible to us. But we do not care! Because the interest of the film, it is mainly to give us a great big shot of adrenaline – something we feel like Cage himself – even if it is adorned with a small reflection on government spying . And of course, the whole is served by a crazy soundtrack that vibrates our molars! Are you going to see the film?
