Early on in the movie Barry's daughter says her wife left her. It seems to be a short 1 minute scene pointless virtue signal and I thought
ok well only a 1 woke score. The movie went on in an amusing little comedy with some wonderful Ireland scenery. It's silly fun and nothing
really laugh out loud but it was entertaining enough with good performances from the 2 leads. Then at about the 1 hour mark a ridiculous 5ft obese female police officer shows up. Again a very short scene and nothing too bad. Ok we have about 10 minutes of film left and I'm thinking ok 1 woke and maybe a 3 score. Worth a one time watch and it's humorous enough. Then out of nowhere Barry's lesbian daughter comes to Ireland and we get a ridiculous slow motion gazing instant love scene with Ciaran's ex-wife who by the way has never been mentioned to be a lesbian! This goes straight into a finale lesbian wedding presided over by aforementioned obese female officer! Are you kidding me!!?? WTF did I just waste 100 minutes of my time on only to be woke slapped in the last 10 minutes. Don't bother and if you must turn it off early to avoid the agenda. I'm giving it a much higher score because of tacked on B.S.

Typical bait-and-switch agenda

A season or two of politically neutral, quick-witted comedy before the mask comes off. Seasons 1 & 2 would be near zero wokeness with a high rating. The transition to low rating with high wokeness happened around season 3. The bet over the dart match in the pub will always be one of my favorite sit-com scenes. Just watch the first two seasons and then bail.

The only woke really is the opening scene showing a black female with her black daughter talking about her deceased husband who is shown
in a photo to be a white male. Pushing the mixed race quota again. It's a small scene but it needs to be pointed out. I went in to this hoping for a shlocky low budget entertaining action horror movie. I got everything but the entertaining part. The acting is all over the place but not terrible and the story is bare bones with some sketchy writing but that's kind of to be expected for this type of movie. Like one of the previous reviews said it really felt like someone ripped off the Purge movies but with werewolves. How is is it everyone knew this would happen again and had an entire year to get ready for it yet seemingly everyone was so horribly prepared. The practical FX are decent and the CG is pretty low end. I just found it all so boring and that's not what you want for this type of movie. There werewolves weren't very effective, they look exactly like what they are, actors in cumbersome bulky suits. They are all so slow and awkward looking it just killed any kind of fun the movie could of had.

Its getting worse

Now this show is actively pushing gender ideology, openly, avoid at all costs.

Nothing really too woke other than the now common in everything mixed race couple. The acting is ok but Davidson just isn't that good
of an actor. The FX are great, the writing is mostly good though there are a few instances of WTF was that. The first half hour or so is very slow and boring and I was tempted to give up but it does pick up considerably and I finished to the end. I kept feeling like I've seen
this premise before but I'm not sure. Lots of gore and body horror but there is a little too much random only for shock value scenes. There are
no real scares to be found but it is a fairly solid movie worth a one time watch. The only other annoying thing is throughout the entire film there
are background tv's with the weather on talking about a major hurricane going up the coast and how unusual it is and blaming it on climate change. It serves no purpose to the movie, other than 1 short scene at the end where it's crazy storming for about 30 seconds then it's completely calm again. It's very odd and out of place not to mention unrealistic and only seems to exist to push the climate change hoax. While that doesn't count toward the woke score it is a political agenda.

Trash

Just watched an episode in which a 60 year old childless white woman girlboss is having sex with a 20 year old black male. She is then getting together with a group of other white women at her white father’s funeral and they are all literally screeching and screaming about it. In the meantime, the white male main character is a broken loser dumped by his white wife and having panic attacks and going to a black female therapist because his white father killed himself. A few episodes before a white child found a white woman’s vibrator. A few episodes before that, a white man was shamed for having an opinion on his white girlfriend’s sexual history which included his teammate and nude modelling and “hundreds” of partners.

This is just season 2, and I’ve heard season 3 starts introducing the gay material.

So far white men are
> Drunks (Jamie’s dad)
> Suicides (Ted’s dad)
> Bullies (most of the white players to Nathan)
> Crying (Ted, Jamie, the angry guy)
> Mentally broken (Ted, the angry guy, Jamie)
> Clueless morons (Ted)
> Dumped by a white woman (Ted, Jamie)
> Abusive villains (the main woman’s ex husband)
> Mute weirdos (beard)

Black males are
> Fighting social injustice
> Having sex with their white female bosses
> Far superior in romantic conversation

Black females are
> Perfect professionals
> Totally wise healing all around them magically

White females are
> Sexually liberated total winners
> Empowered rich bosses
> Having sex with their white boyfriend’s teammate
> Using vibrators
> Allowed to sleep with whoever at any time even employees 40 years younger with zero consequences
> Slating their fathers at his funeral

I won’t make it to season 3 which will start making a white female a lesbian (Keeley) to break the only successful white male-female relationship in the show

Avoid like the plague, this is more mental programming designed to destroy white male confidence.

Far far too much black representation for a show set in Dublin with 1.5-2 percent black population. Outside that the acting is all over
the place some pretty good but a few are awful. I only made it through the first episode but by the end of it I had no interest in continuing.
This is the usual family involved in some sort of crime business fighting within themselves as well as other crime families. All the clichés are present with nothing original. It's very slow and plodding. The biggest thing for me was the terrible camera work. Weird angles and camera framing mixed with extreme close ups on faces with blurred backgrounds. The scenes with the family gathering inside the house feels like a member of the crew was just walking around with their cell phone taking video and the director said screw it we'll just use that footage. It's possible it gets better but with the first episode that boring and unengaging it's a hard sell to keep going.

Nothing woke. This is labled as action comedy but I would say it's just comedy. I didn't find the comedy funny at all. How is this guy trained
as a hitman since childhood yet this much of a bumbling fool. He fakes his death to escape so he can fulfill his dream of being a webtoon artist? Really, that's the story. The comedy is of the silly slapstick over the top kind complete with corny sound effects. It's all just to eye rolling and annoying to be actually funny.

Far superior to the American version

If an interracial marriage is wokeness to you, it's woke. In the 5 seasons this ran, racial issues were never mentioned or even implied. The only tic on the woke-meter for me was the implied latent homosexual tendencies of one of the regular characters. It wasn't done with any level of advocacy or agenda. I was sad to see this series end. It was hard to find the last couple of seasons streaming.

Devolves from pre-teen potty humor to troubled gay lives

Rotten tomatoes has a review for "Just Before I Go" that about summarized it well enough: "Lurches along a wobbly line between salacious comic nastiness and nauseating sentimentality.".

One of the strangest films I've seen in a long time that starts out a bit vulgar and nasty and turns into a kind of pedestal for the tribulations of these gay couples in the film. I fast forwarded it and the movie got more and more gay-centric. I'm like, WTF. Usually, I turn a movie off at the first glance of two men kissing. Don't care. I got my opinion. It turns my stomach.

I kept this one on well past the kissing dudes part, and the plot just devolved into these homosexual relationships and their struggles, hopes, and dreams of the future. Movie chat says I have a low IQ and that there's more to the film. I get it. Life changes. Struggles with the past and my struggle with the second half of this movie.

Not a classical Christmas movie

Ok, the new chosen who will give birth to the messiah is... a man! But it's not for wokeness, it's just the main charachter being clumsy and messing things up. Funny

Nice

As good as the others, and no woke stuff
