XXX

Parents need to know that XXX stars Vin Diesel as a renegade thrill seeker pressed into the covert service as a spy for the US government. There seem to be explosions every other minute -- from car chases, motorcycle chases, snowboard chases, machine gun and gun firing, and missile launching. Characters use drugs, drink, and smoke; one of the bad guys effusively praises smoking, and says he would do it in his sleep if possible, and would smoke even after he's dead.  When mercenaries discover they have landed in a coca field in Colombia, some of them excitedly start ripping off parts of the coca plant and stuffing it into their pockets. In one scene, a number of people are killed in a particularly heartless fashion, while others watch and make fun of them. There are implied sexual situations, including a character telling his girlfriend to have sex with someone else and a woman given to characters as a sexual favor, but nothing explicit is shown. A character explains his plans for world anarchy in a manner that is worth discussing with teenagers who see the film.
