    Ti West did an interview talking about a long, uninterrupted shot in Maxxxine, and right away I was thinking Brian De Palma. I'm fully on board for this one. To me, the whole X series seems like Ti West's celebration of filmmaking, and his condemnation of Hollywood.

    Pearl was WILD, I loved it, a horny Wizard of Oz. Really looking forward to this one.

    I literally looked for your review of this an hour ago
  • I absolutely loved the 3/4 of the movie, the setup, the amazing realism of the 80s style, the context and the tension of a moment impacted by a famous serial killer. Mia Goth is perfect, one more time. My only complaint is the cliched 3rd act.

    Love your vids. Among other things, appreciate the Watchmen and McKee books on your inverted shelves.

    First video of yours I’ve seen. I had the exact same response to this movie but didn’t know how to articulate it. Spot on 👌 I’ll keep watching
  • I'd totally say this is the most commercialized A24 film in a long time with frequent ads and I've seen billboards here in there. So the spotlight definitely was on it to being the next smash hit. Mia Goth is absolutely queen on what she's delivered in these films. So regardless of any flaws there's no doubt I'll love Maxxxine. Bit of a anti-hero & it's amazing to witness🥰❤️‍🔥

    Thank you for your review! Looking forward to seeing this one on the weekend.

    For some reason I remember you had issues with Pearl. Perhaps you saw it again and came around. It's a masterpiece that went under the radar. It will rise in stature down the line.

    Watched Pearl again, Mia Goths monologue at the end is pretty epic. I enjoyed it more on rewatch
  • @kenbogus136
    The only review of Maxxxine that I will watch.

    I saw this last night and dug it but I did not love it. What you said about Peral is EXACTLY how I felt and still feel. Pearl was just magical, and this, while decent, couldn't live up to that one's brilliance. Also, you nailed it with that Brian Depalma line.
  • Have only seen 'Pearl' so far. Very much liked it. Look forward to seeing the other two.
  • Brian DePalma "borrowed" from Argento throughout his career. It was definitely an homage to Argentos Giallo films of the 80's.
