Not woke at all. Just a really great movie.
This is just a well told story. Characters are well developed and just enough Godzilla to keep you excited. You do have to read subtitles throughout the whole movie, but it's very easy to keep up.
There are only a few movies when the audience claps at the end of the movie. This was one of them.

Godzilla-sama!
Wow, this is like a serious WWII drama combined with a 1950's horror movie. The production is well done.
Nothing woke. This is 1945+ Japan, where women are women and men are kamikazes. Family values are the main theme, even though the family members are mostly unrelated survivors of war in a shattered country.
I do not know how this movie was received by the Japanese, but I imagine it could be cathartic for them. Godzilla represents the horror of the atomic bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. The lead man, a failed kamikaze, reflects their guilt about tactics and sorrow for people lost for nothing.
Godzilla is one tough bastard: damn near impossible to kill, tosses ships like they are toys, and has nuclear bomb "breath". It's absurd, but expected.
Mixing absurdity with realism, the movie is everything we could ask from a Godzilla movie. Superb!

Amazing Godzilla Movie
No woke at all. The best Godzilla movie in years. Good acting, story and top notch VFX. Seems to be true to the time period after WWII. Great wartime drama mixed with giant monster action. This is not a mindless monster rampage movie but very well thought out, written and acted post war Japan movie. Highly recommended.
