Not really good indeed, but if you let go (and the movie allows you to do this), you can have fun! Ice Cube took over from Vin Diesel (who decided not to participate here). The producers said, that "xxx" could be a series, where in every movie they'd make, someone else will be the lead! There were also rumours that if a third installment would be made, than a woman would play the main role. But unfortunately (or for some fortunately) the sequel didn't make enough money to justify another movie!
But back to this movie: I did rate this higher than the previous movie, because the action here is much better staged (imho). And that's all to it. It's not actually a better story (there is none as there was none in the first movie), it's just a ... no brainer! (and for some even a little bit of a guilty pleasure ... ;o)
