No Horror, No Comedy, Just Woke
Way over the top DEI representation and casting in non white and alphabet mafia characters. Multiple obese body positive female castings. All the white males are either betas, drug dealers, sex offenders, murderers or just all around bad characters while the DEI's are all portrayed as good people. The acting is mostly awful but there are a few decent performances. The writing is laughably bad in particular to how operations and preceding's go on a cruise ship. It's like a really bad teen CW show from the 90's with some bad language thrown in to try to make it seem edgy. There is also no comedy and not horror just eye rolling garbage.

Watchable but Very Slow and Not Really Horror
Nothing really woke. The cast is almost all women but it makes sense within the story why the men are all gone. The acting is good and the cinematography is excellent with some wonderful shots. Unfortunately that's about all it has going for it. While it does an excellent job of showing the hard life of the period living in the dust bowl it does so at a such a dull slow pace. It's another case of mis-marketing it as horror when it's not at all. There's some attempts at jump scares that don't even work and they shoot a lot of the scenes in such a way with angels and ominous music to seem like it should be horror but what's happening in the scene doesn't match what they are trying to convey. There's also a lot of characters thinking they see something moving or hear something but nothing ever happens.

Minor wokeness
The casting seems to be somewhat DEI. Check that out for yourself. The bits of wokeness I detected would be the environmental alarmist based rising sea levels. There's a scene where the Golden Gate bridge is under water. Also, the idea that predators can coexist with their natural food supply is a Bambi kind of wokeness. I was hoping for some of the clever humor that Dreamworks is notable for. There's really not much there.

An Actual Decent Kevin Smith Movie??
Nothing woke. A bit different from modern Kevin smith movies. More like his earlier ones actually though a bit tamer in content. Not as funny as some but I actually liked it better than I thought I would. It's a lighter toned down version of Smith and it actually works rather well. I would say if you liked early Smith than give this one a shot.
