Argylle
The greater the spy, the bigger the lie.
When the plots of reclusive author Elly Conway's fictional espionage novels begin to mirror the covert actions of a real-life spy organization, quiet evenings at home become a thing of the past. Accompanied by her cat Alfie and Aidan, a cat-allergic spy, Elly races across the world to stay one step ahead of the killers as the line between Conway's fictional world and her real one begins to blur.

Not woke
A couple of DIE casting, but minor roles. No woke themes though. Has a "Kingsman" feel to it with the silliness of some scenes. Because, spoiler alert, it is. It's apart of the Kingsman series.

Underrated film
Unexpectedly enjoyed this one. I admit is was a little silly and the oil scene was over the top, but it was an enjoyable film with a good enough story, and best of all. Didn’t notice any wokeness.

Unentertaining feminist lecture with a body-positive strong female lead, a weak male lead, subverted male role models, and a cheap scenario
Shallow, strong female character beating tens of males with no effort, body positivity, weak male lead, white male villain (who oppressed the strong female), DIE casting, diverse characters in (non-villainous) power positions…it’s all there.
— START (MILD) SPOILERS —
There is even a clumsy subliminal propaganda scene where the strong male character disappears in the mirror, saying “you don’t need me anymore”, after which he is replaced by the reflection of the strong female character. Similarly, the strong male character is quickly replaced by his weak male counterpart in the first minutes. The strongest character is the obese female lead, who also beats the weak male lead, effectively establishing her as the most powerful character in the movie.
— END SPOILERS —
The male role models, Cavill and Cena, are used to as bait to draw the audiences to the theaters and they hardly have screen time. An honest movie poster would have them in the very back, and the strong female lead in the front together with the weak male lead.

Woke from the start.
There are several reviews here that point out the woke-ness, so I wont ramble on about it. But I'm disturbed by how many reviews have overlooked the woke in this film. How can you not see it? Do you actually even understand what your looking for? or what WOKE Means?
Be Wary of whos reviews your reading.
