There's a strong sense of "independent woman." Alita is annoyed that Ido wants her to be his "good little daughter" as if that's a bad thing. There's a strong feminist theme throughout the movie. She then goes into a rebellious phase, following her own rules, not needing Ido's, which of course leads to intense aggressive behavior. Yes, I know it's a movie about a woman going into combat and battle. Just figured I should point it out.

Childish

This film follows a "mad scientist" and his restoration project: a cyborg girl whom he treats like his daughter. She's like a rebellious teen but she's also a super tough robot who doesn't need (much) protection. I do not judge this as woke.

The action is really intense cartoony stuff that I don't care for. If that is your cup of tea, then drink up.
