- Awesome Music: Whatever else one can say about the movie, "Get XXX'd" by J-Kwon, Petey Pablo and Ebony Eyez is a great track.
- Evil Is Cool: The commandos are extremely badass and are considered one of the highlights of the film.
- Replacement Scrappy: Ice Cube's replacement of Vin Diesel's character as the new xXx was met with a very cold reception from fans of the original.
- Sequelitis: It has been widely considered to be a more terrible film than the original, given its higher propensity for appealing to the Lowest Common Denominator.
- Special Effects Failure: Many of the CGI action effects fall squarely under this.
- Unintentional Period Piece: The rap songs (with Xzibit in a secondary role), a cameo from Bond and Deckert's Praetorian Guard being armed with the Heckler and Koch XM8note to represent being "ten generations ahead of the NSA" show this film was made during the early part of The 2000s.
