The reviewer expresses strong dissatisfaction with the horror anthology film 'XX', which they found to be a poorly executed and unscary collection of short films. They criticize the lack of depth, clumsy dialogue, and wooden acting, and find the films to be more of a comedy than a horror. The reviewer also expresses frustration with the film's marketing, which they believe oversells the idea of the films being directed by women as a feminist statement. They conclude that the film is a failure and does not highlight the talent of female directors as it was intended to.
