How many levels of suck are there?

My brother bought me this DVD as a gag gift. I would have to say GAG fits my description of this movie very, very well. Firstly I should note that I wasn't a huge fan of XXX with Vin Diesel, but it is an Oscar winner compared to XXX: State of the Union. This movie was so ridiculous that it was down right funny.

When oh when will Hollywood tire of this hyped disaster concept? This qualifies as a "must miss" movie. Grady Harp, July 05
