This is what happens in “designed” trilogies. Instead of using fan desire and passion for demand to make sequels, they “planned it” and lost the inspiration by the end. Like the matrix. Like anything, what you were passionate about, can dim/fail over time. What should have been 1 long 2.5hr horror movie where you see the transition in 1 film, it became 3 films that slowly lost passion/direction. All for profit, and passion often suffers for profit.
I WAS excited to see what this movie had to offer primarily because Mia has been a gift in every role I've been able to watch her sink her teeth into. And after X and Pearl, there does feel a sense of obligation to follow through with the story and see how Maxxxine expands the existing lore. Your review is passionate about the genre and no doubt you appreciate the previous entries as much if not more than I have. So I'll definitely have to check it out now just to see if I concur with your observations. To be fair, I'm not a harsh critic. As long as a project isn't blatantly hampered by incompetence in all phases of production, I'll usually determine some aspect to be worthwhile. Pretty much saying as long as Uwe Boll isn't involved it can't be complete trash lol
I thought it was over stuffed.. but the 80s style was dead on point. And the villain reveal was kinda lame but . We all knew that was coming since the end of X, right? They had a bit too much going on. But i actually enjoyed it. Sure it faltered a bit.. But then again in a meta way you could argue this was an homage to the excess of the 80s . And.. It was never meant to pay homage . Each film while they carry themes.. are paying homage to their respective genres. Each one a completely different genre. You seem disappointed that Maxine was not the killer. She wasn't meant to be. She is the ultimate survivor. Who ever said she was meant to be a killer? Pearl IS the killer...
Thank you,. This was sooo horrible. I actually couldn't say anything. I was speechless. That does not happen. My only quesion is did Maxxxine kill her co-star. I thought she might have even though there was a body, HEr father said that he tried to save the two porn actresses but he said nothing about her co-star. That is why I think she killed her. She was told by the director that she had to do everything to get a head.
Thank you for watching my review. No disrespect taken. I use to pronounce it as “Tie” and then watched an interview online where he was being referred to as “Tea”. Thanks for the heads up! 👍
And.. Didn't she? She literally got away with killing Pearl and her husband, justifiably so.. And literally learned her lesson from her father using him to launch her success to the stars. "i will not live a life i don't deserve"... And Kevin Bacon . Had no desire for revenge.. Until he did. He was a psycho for sale. I'm really wondering if you just didn't pay attention?

Thank you for yo visiting my channel! Thank you for your comments and I appreciate it! 👍
Underrated channel 🗿❤
Thank you very much for your kind comments! Thank you for watching! I appreciate it! 👍
I disagree and thought the film was a great homage to 80s horror in general. Kevin Bacon hammed it up but I found that hilarious.
Lol. It wasn’t what I hoped it would be but it wasn’t THAT bad. I don’t see myself returning to it as often as I have Pearl and X but it was fine.
Thank you for visiting my channel and for your comments! Appreciate it! 👍
I mean, I really enjoyed it, but, yea, it wasn't up to the same artistic quality of the other two. Again, I enjoyed it, though,
Thank you for visiting my channel! Appreciate your comments. 👍
Although i liked the film, the scene where they reveal the dead black guy on the stretcher was pretty ridiculous.
Hi @21stcenturyhiphop! Thanks for visiting my channel and for your comments. Yeah, I thought that that part was not good either. 👍
Ridiculous.. But.. It did what they wanted it to do push maxine into helping them.
I liked X, a little overhyped but a good throwback to 70s/80s horror- couldn't even finish Pearl though
Thanks for visiting my channel. I appreciate your comments! 70’s and 80’s horror is just amazing! 👍
I thought X was okay, but I thought Pearl was definitely better. Both are somewhat overrated though.
@@rafterman5072 I should probably give Pearl another look- think I just wasn't in the mood for it, definitely didn't give it much of a chance
Opposite for me. X is lame. Pearl was sort of interesting

No disrespect, but if you're reviewing horror make sure you know that Ti West is pronounced "tie" not "tea".🍻
Thank you for watching my review. No disrespect taken. I use to pronounce it as “Tie” and then watched an interview online where he was being referred to as “Tea”. Thanks for the heads up! 👍
I just saw a video and he pronounced his OWN name as Tie, as in bowTIE.
Lol!!!! Enjoyed your review.
Glad you enjoyed! 😃

This franchise was like Game of Thrones. And we all know how bad the last season was 😂
Lol! Thanks for visiting my channel and for your comments! 👍

If you hated X... why did you watch MaXXXine?
Thanks for watching! I loved the other 2, but this one fell flat. 👍
@@horizonblack Thought it would be better. Pearl was ok
Also, thank you for subscribing! 👍.
Loved X, but the second one was "meh," not too thrilled for this one.
