Triple X = Bond Rip-off?

For those of you who seen the Vin Diesil movie "xXx", did anyone else think that this film was a blantant rip off of 007? Now that i look back on the movie thats pretty much what it was.

Samuel L Jackson's character was obviously M, Xanger Cage is 007, and they even had a lame annoying version of Q. The main villian of xXx is very Blofeld like in many ways as well.
