MaXXXine

Maxxxine is a masterpiece

Pretty good but ending got a bit silly

This film is the sequel to X and follows Maxxine, seven years after surviving the farm massacre. Now a prominent figure in the adult film industry, she’s determined to leave that life behind and reinvent herself as a legitimate actress. However, two major threats loom over her plans: a mysterious killer targeting her and her friends, and a relentless private investigator threatens to expose her dark past. Despite it all, Maxxine refuses to let anything or anyone stand in the way of her becoming a star. Overall, due to its references and iconography from the '80s, Goth's understated yet nuanced performance, cinematic kills, an intriguing and vibrant Hollywood setting, and a bold story, this movie is quite good, and even though there were many expendable characters that didn’t add much to the narrative, and some unnecessary and distracting split-screen shots, I enjoyed my time with it, and think that it was a great bittersweet ending to this impressive trilogy.

No se me hizo tan buena como 'X' y 'Pearl', pero tiene lo suyo, en el buen sentido. Tiene escenas bastantes grotescas y los escenarios son magníficos. Pero esa historia está como incompleta.

Ti West and Mia Goth have done it again! Although MaXXXine may seem weaker of the trilogy, but it actually becomes somewhat stronger if you rewatch them all and then MaXXXine again. The entire cast Is incredible! I was so pleased that it felt true to the mid 80s and tone! Mixture of slasher and truth and ambition especially from Mia Goth as MaXXXine after surviving while all her friends were killed in X. I have so much love for this trilogy and Ti and especially Mother Mia Goth! MaXXXine is an enjoyable thriller/horror slasher, MIA DELIVERS like always!

Of the three, this was by far the most different and least impactful. What made the prior two fun, was removed to give this a more 80’s slasher vibe. I simply don’t think it worked, and this will not be one rewatched.

Good acting but a storyline that is way over the top and ridiculous

I am so disappointed. I wish Pearl was a solo film at this point and not a serie. Only the costumes and the photography are really good but the all film and characters lack of personality, maxine herself is not narrated well, I Wish I could see all of the reference of the other movies of the serie inside the character of maxine and not just in beautiful frames of the film, If you get me

A movie that perfectly balances itself between being a horror film and a slasher film. If you've been following this character, you'll have more than enough investment to be all-in into all plot twists and turns. The cinematography is top notch, and if you're into period pieces (period being the 70s) you'll love being transported there. All in all, a solid film that happens to have a suspicious amount of blood in it, but you'll stay for the plot.

Lead actress was fabulous as a quirky mysterious striper turned actress. Great script, artsy filming, well directed. Heckofa plot twist.
