Not woke, just very good
The film is contemplative and philosophical. If there is a “lesson” to be learnt, it concerns the beauty of the present moment, not some social imperative. There is no ‘villain’ representing a system. Just a good movie !
Nothing woke in this one. The first half was pretty good despite some minor complaints but the second half really brings the entire thing down a notch. Some great acting and performances all around. While I wouldn't call this horror but more thriller there is some very creepy and unsettling scenes. The plot is a resident at a nursing home terrorizes other residents. One of the biggest plot issues is it's set in modern world yet there is not one single camera anywhere to be found and not one person has a cell phone or ever gets visitors from a family member. This guy manages to move about freely terrorizing residents and making tons of noise and there is never a single nurse or orderly ever anywhere. Loud disruptive scenes play out in the middle of the day in a common room and again nobody ever shows up to check. Several highly suspicious deaths that are clearly foul play and no investigation or questions are asked. It all becomes so impossible and ridiculous by the end that it ruins what could of been a nice little thriller that also takes a look at nursing homes, aging and onset dementia. Most of these problems could of been fixed by simply setting it in a different decade like the 70's or even the 80's. Still might be worth a 1 time watch as the acting is very good.
There was a character named "Jamie." I'm going to guess that's a she, since her voice is female (kind of strong, but female enough). The main problems/confusions about her were not fully male or female hair style + face. And she told the main character "Grey" to not ask her "gender," which is good; better to stay in the dark than know that painful information. She was in the movie for a few minutes anyway. Otherwise, I liked the robotic body and camera movements when the STEM was in control. And it's a good thing they didn't go for a "good ending."
