Ghostbusters

Spectral is a far-out sci-fi war movie. Nothing overtly woke.

Despite being labeled as a "Netflix original," Spectral was actually a completed film that the owning studio deemed a dud and subsequently sold to Netflix. So, it does not suffer from Netflix's wokeism. However, your suspension of disbelief will be challenged by absurdities.

(Vague spoilers follow.)

A female CIA officer commands Delta Force. That's ridiculous on multiple levels. The CIA does not have command control over the military. Also, putting someone with presumably no combat experience in charge of a combat operation would be suicidal.

The film gets far more outlandish in its abuse of science and common sense. The film's scientific explanations will lose most of the audience while upsetting scientists. Moldova being advanced in science in any way is unbelievable. The quick improvisation of new "Ghostbusters" weapons also insults the audience's intelligence.

Many reviews compare it to Aliens. I would say it's more like Pitch Black, if it were set in Moldova.

If you're good at suspending disbelief, then you might enjoy Spectral as popcorn entertainment. Otherwise, steer clear.
