Recent yet woke-less and even terrific movie
Not a shimmer of woke despite being a recent movie. Terrific story too, got me nailed to my seat. Best I've seen in a long time, recommended to watch.

Huh?
This is an unusual film in which there is almost no dialog. Nothing overtly woke, but there is a subtle vestige of wokeness that I will get to later.
The start of the movie is gripping, with palpable tension heightened by the lack of dialog. The image quality and cinematography captivated me.
The end of the movie is like "huh?" I read ScreenRant's explanation and that satisfied me in terms of understanding, but basically the artsy fartsy director refuses to have his creativity limited by commonsense. I am more of a hard sci-fi guy. The plot would work as a (weak) Twilight Zone episode, by cutting out the repetitive middle.
SPOILER FOLLOWS.
The aliens are woke. They didn't assimilate the woman, because she is crippled emotionally, therefore handicapped, therefore in a protected group deserving of better treatment than everyone else. It's subtle, but the only alien invaders who would think this way are the alien invaders created by woke writers. It is maybe half a woke point, which I will round down to 0.
Watch it you want. It works as a visceral experience. Stephen King gives it top marks. For other reasons, I'm pretty sure he is insane.
