”Better than it probably should be but still not very good. There’s a comfort food quality to this stroll down memory lane. It feels like one of those sitcom reunion movies that networks used to produce back in the ‘80s, coasting on familiar faces and a catchy theme song. It’ll play best on Netflix, where most people will be watching it while doing something else.” – North Shore Movies, 07/02/2024

”Rushed and overwritten, with West constantly putting the cart before the horse to shoehorn as many homages and semiotic asides as he can cram into a given scene. But such self-reflexive wankery only goes so far unless you’ve got something to say, and MaXXXine is one of those movies that confuses talking about big ideas with actually having them.” – North Shore Movies, 07/01/2024
