I have been waiting for the conclusion of this - I will not hesitate to use that word - beloved trilogy. Maxxxine Minx, now in her early 30s, is living the best version of her best life as an adult film star. Surprisingly, the film leaves much to the imagination. We get many references to Miss Minx's prior cinematic masterpieces. We get winks, nods, grins from her fans. We get to meet her friends and coworkers. But we don't actually see her in action. There is more blood than skin. The common trope of a serial killer targeting starlets is taken to the next level and intertwined with another trope of satanic rituals. If you crave that win-win cocktails of your favorite noir and pulp hits, don't miss "Maxxxine".
Mia Goth is not your mainstream "leading lady" material, and she knows it. The realization unties her hands. You will probably not see her starring in romcoms. There are too many dispensable, utterly forgettable actresses for that.
