Awake not Woke!

Very creative, suspenseful, and terrifying at times.

This was truly a very creative movie in the horror genre. Feminist Hollywood still can't just make a movie without portraying men as weaklings or predators and they managed to do both here. Still, even with the woke trash, there is still enough on the bone to really enjoy this. Inde Navarrette did an amazing job as Nikki and Michael Johnston did a good job as well. The director and writer Curry Barker's budget was only $750k and it has grossed over $300 million so far. He could be a director to watch moving forward.

Another throwback set in the 80's slasher movie. This one actually does a pretty good job with the setting. The clothes, hair, sets and language are for the most part pretty good. These 'college' kids for the most party actually look the part with the exception of the female lead. The actress is 30 and while that's not so unusual to see that now in the 80's would of been highly unlikely. The acting is mostly good and the writing is pretty well done, at least most of it is. This is marketed as a slasher/horror but It's not really. I would call this more of a serial killer/thriller. The last 20 or so minutes throws some hidden twists at you and starts to really stretch believability, this is also where the writing takes some hits as well. The sudden twists make earlier events questionable and there is a lot left unexplained or things that no longer make any sense. It would of worked much better as just a straight up 80's style slasher. Maybe worth a one time watch but I thought the ending really fell apart and dragged the whole thing down. Nothing really woke. There is a female forest ranger. Women were not allowed in the field as forest rangers until 1978 so a female ranger in the 80'swould be very rare but not impossible. It never says exactly what year it is but given some of the set pieces used it would most likely be later 80's

Non woke movie that has a B-rate movie feeling

It's not going to win Hollywood awards, and that's ok. -It goes into many of today's political hot topics. -Several scenes were questionable, making the main character a villain rather than a vigilante. -The fluff interviews were a bit hammy with all the praise, and would have been better if there was someone to dissent and be a mouthpiece to show how crazy the media and politicians are. -The camera work in some places was a bit much, every other second switching back and forth nearly a dozen times. -The main actors were great -Other than all that, it got the point across well.

Highly recommended

I loved this show, it constantly kept me going back and had my attention the whole time. The one woke element is the old "black woman cop is the one who solves everything" and of course easily takes out several guys in one scene. But she doesn't have the full usual cuntish attitude, just a little bit of that vibe and not enough to ruin it. She wasn't totally unbearable like women in some other recent shows that I turned off. That is the oly real woke thing I can point out, other than that highly recommended. One of the best shows i've seen in a while.
