It’s not woke, but it’s filled with another kind of propaganda.
The Brutalist tries to be deep and different, but it ends up being the same old thing: an overly long movie about a “tortured genius” fighting against the world without really questioning the system he’s trapped in. Brady Corbet throws in some flashy visuals to seem innovative, but the story—full of pretentious moments and stiff characters—barely scratches the surface of themes like masculinity, classism, and identity. In the end, what seems like a reflection on art and oppression turns into a one-sided take where the protagonist finds refuge in Israel, without the film ever stopping to consider what that actually means. Instead of challenging the audience, The Brutalist settles into stale nostalgia and ends up feeling more like propaganda disguised as arthouse cinema. It’s not really woke—it flirts with progressive themes, but in a way that feels shallow and ultimately leans into a safe, traditional narrative. Worst of all, it fails to actually entertain, dragging on for three and a half hours without enough substance to justify its runtime.

Decent Non Disney Marvel Movie
I didn't notice any woke. The acting is pretty good and the story while not comics accurate is still a decent adaptation. The CG again is is mostly good but there are a few instances of noticably shoddy scenes. I actually enjoyed this for what it was. It's a shame it did so poorly in theaters as it would of been nice to see where all the character setups could of gone.

Another Poor Godzilla Movie
Nothing woke. While both the miniatures and cg FX look pretty good this time, the monsters don't. The story is just silly with the plot ignoring all past movies and playing as a direct sequel to the original with all the souls of those killed during the war inhabiting Godzilla's body for revenge and the other monsters are guardians trying to stop it. Far too much screen time is taken up with the human characters and not nearly enough with Zombizilla and the other monsters. The story is too ridiculous and the acting is pretty bad by everyone with some odd slapstick eye rolling attempts at humor to make it worse.

Not Much of a Comedy
I saw nothing woke in the first 2 episodes. This one is a little hard to rate as it's very well done. The acting is great, the writing, story and dialog are all good. The problem for me though is that while it's labels a dark comedy it's not really funny. I mean yes the characters are a little goofy but the story is so messed up and the Dr Ike character so slimy it's hard to find any humor. Then there's Marty who we are supposed to feel bad for but is so incredibly pathetic and whiny it's really hard to have any sympathy for him, he just comes off as a little annoying. I'm not familiar with the true story so I don't know how accurate it is. I still rated it average because it's not a bad show and if you can take the characters you may enjoy it more than I did.
