While not really woke other than maybe some DEI casting choices. For a very small budget indie film this actually looks decent. The acting however ranges from mediocre to pretty bad. There are a lot of inaccuracies and unrealistic scenarios for the military setting. There's nothing new story wise basically a military installation under attack and trying to survive. The gimmick is the entire movie is made to look like it's done in one single take with no cuts. At this point there are a lot of these 'one take' movies and it's been done to much better effect than here. This wouldn't have been to bad other than some really lazy writing that could of been easily fixed. There is one covered truck the shows up and runs the gates with all the enemy combatants in it. However the number of enemies that are shown throughout the movie are impossible to have come out of that single truck. It appears to be a literal army of at least 100 if not more, it's ridiculous. Why not just have a second truck? If budget doesn't allow than use the same truck as a secondary with strategic camera angles to never show them both on screen at once.
They are constantly taking cover behind empty wood crates and other cover that just simply won't stop a rifle round. They also choose cover to get behind but then just leave their heads sticking out over the top. Adkins turns into a one man army single handedly killing pretty much everyone. The scenes of him sneaking around the base full of enemies constantly in clear lines of sight yet nobody ever sees him. This might be worth a watch for action movie fans if you have nothing else but
it's mediocre at best.
