Rewatched "XXX"; is this the most 2002 movie ever?

It's got it all:

• Samuel Jackson as the no-nonsense agent with a mysterious injury from his past
• X-TREME SPORTS!
• That certain font in the subtitles that was ubiquitous for the time
• All the bad guys with spiky, streaked hair dressed like Smashmouth tryouts, women with belly shirts and big-legged jeans, twisted hair-knots, and matte makeup.
• The on-screen tech was mostly analog (videotape cameras in huge crash-proof cases for the characters to record their X-TREME stunts) and computer UI was full of text boxes with angled corners, drop-shadow fonts, and garish palettes.
• Laughably bad CGI.

Oh, and Vin Diesel gets to say, "I live for this shit!".
