Movies seen in 2025#

(Work in progress as the year progresses, so remember to check every now and then if anything new popped up in the meantime.)

Beware: There are a couple of spoilers ahead as those are predominantly notes for myself. Nothing all too serious but one or two twists are revealed.

MaXXXine#

2025-01-01

"MaXXXine" (2024) is the final entry in the X trilogy. The story continues "X's" Maxine's journey to being a star. The movie's plot resembles "Hardcore" (1980) a lot. The director claims the order is not relevant, but I would watch them as they were released. The style and recreations of the 1980s in this movie are truly remarkable. Funnily enough, despite having XXX in the title, there isn't really that much erotic scenes ("X" had more).
