Hit Man

Not woke

Based on a actual events. Woke is limited to a token black female detective, token black male sergeant, token indian tech guy, stereotypical white male villain(s).

Not at all what I was expecting. The first 40 minutes or so had a decent if improbable start but than it sort of stopped and went off into
corny rom-com territory. Another true story movie that is basically all fake and made up. The basic character of Gary and his fake hit man is true but pretty much everything else is b.s. including the love story that is central to the entire movie as well as the 'surprise' ending. The acting is ok and there are some humorous scenes but I just didn't find it all that funny. It also seemed to be a bit long at 2hrs for the story it was telling. I finished it and it isn't terrible just could of been better. The only woke is the usual DEI overrepresentation and the love interest just had to be Spanish so we can get that mixed race box checked. I feel like this is another 2.5 star movie but I think it's decent enough to bump up to 3 stars.
