confusing and with kinda bad cinematografy/storeboarding but not really woke
the wokest thing in the film that the coomc female is kinda fat and able to fight like the mc that is a veteran soldier/assasin but for the sake of the story i can accept that.

white man evil
the villain is your tipical white man evil and heroines solve the problems the mc just kinda navigates the opportunities that others open to him.

Blatent LGBT agenda ruins a great show
This American copy of the UK version has a great premise. The only issue is the gradual culturing of a homosexual relationship between two of the ghosts. It blossoms into a full blown romance. The UK version has something similar but it's more of a series of small quips rather than agenda. I recommend passing on the US version.

The woke starts slow and builds
The wokeness is mostly subtle over the first few episodes. Most of the cases involve greedy corporations exploiting poor black folks. White males are predominately either incompetent or nefarious. One of the running plots in character building is a lesbian. Her coworkers encourage her to pursue a same-sex relationship with a lesbian IT tech. As much as I like Kathy Bates and the basic plot, this one has an agenda.

A fun, yet somewhat shallow, whodunit comedy.
A fun, lighthearted, whodunit series where every case gets figured out Pirot, holmes, Dupin, style. Carrie Preston brings this good natured, character to life. The stories are mildly interesting with the bad guy being revealed Scooby-Doo style. (Yes, I did it! I would've gotten away with it if it weren't for those meddling kids!) It's basically a female version of Monk but, instead of OCD, it's loud colors, large handbags, and no sense of personal space. Enjoy, but don't expect too much.

I am not entertained
I am still a fan of Scott’s. Well, was, until very recently. I even trudged through Prometheus. And Covenant. I’m a masochist. I deserve a good spanking.
Scott’s always had a situationship with historical accuracy, at best; see Last Duel, Napoleon. But now he’s gone and ghosted it. And slept with its mother. In its own bed. Live-streamed on Twitch. Because why not.
Female legionnaires? Zombie baboons from Hell? Gladiators riding rhinos shouting lasers out of their arses? (whose arse is up for debate). Football? Seriously?
To be fair, female gladiators had been a (rare) thing, because why not? Gladiator games, especially into the 3rd century, were pretty much American wrestling, if a fair tad bloodier, but mostly kayfabe. So, yeah, women, for the same reasons.
Except by the purported time of this movie, they had been banned because morality.
Washington is a pro, as usual, but out of place. The real-life Macrinus did manage to briefly claw his way into power despite his non-noble birth. But he couldn’t have done it with a black skin.
Pascal plays himself, as usual, so, Eternal Eunuch. Despite the hefty run time, his balls don’t drop. Also, why is he everywhere when that kind of money could hire an actor? And he’s a Roman general, too; who were well-known for general foppishness. General of the Emo Empire.
Maximus Redux is, well, present. He does a fairly good job of shouting while looking like a wet, miserable dog. And breathing, also. He breathes. That about wraps it up. But his character benefits from Chosen One Powers. Surprisingly, he’s not female.
The rest of the cast is better than Pascal, which is neither difficult nor enough.
So yeah, black-washing, female empowerment, so-called progressivism, and heavy recycling of the previous plot.
As anything with Pascal in it, it’s anti-male, smash-the-patriarchy, and much ado about nothing (literally; in Shakespeare’s time, ‘nothing’ was slang for an absence of dick). Polar opposite of the original.
Seats were stiff. Popcorn was crap. An evening wasted.
Edit: regarding the omnipresence of xir Pascal (no gender assumed), rumour apparently has it that it owes to his overt political pandering for the Party of the Ultimate Good (PUG?), but also to his checking of diversity boxes (ie: non-white, non-male) while being "white-passing".
The sheer and very literal racism of the morally superior never ceases to amaze.

Made to order 2024 alien enthusiasm
There has been an explosion in the online alien video genre. Lots of B grade investigative type shows are popping up like this one. It's entertaining, but the people featured in this series and ex-whatever, govt / military / scientist are without much personality to engage the viewer. Except for the recycled appearance of figures more prominent in more popular series like Melon and Bigalow, it seems this series is trying to introduce new characters but they do little to carry viewer intrigue. They are kind of just there. They make a lot of sweeping statements and claims leading viewers to a conclusion but don't offer much evidence. I'm half way through the series and it better pick up or I may not be able to keep watching. I wouldn't call it woke, but they do have one gay ex military pilot helping do investigations for whatever reason which could just as easily be done by George Knapp alone. None of the characters that work with George are necessary at all including the ex-CIA guy. This series could just as easily be called Knapp Alien Investigations.

Could have been good, but lazy
I like Adkins, in a Van Damme kind of way, but let's be honest, he's even less able to carry a movie on his acting chops alone.
The whole movie feels cheap. Sometimes in a clever way, as in the constrained settings, but mostly in a, well, cheap way.
Adkins is pushing 50 now, and it feels as though he's not trying that much anymore. Eve used to be a smoke show, but that was 20 years ago; she's still apparently too expensive to actually appear in more than one scene, though.
Photography is competent if uninspired, music is absent, it could be an OK movie, but the script needs so much tightening!
Characters feel flat, artificial, cookie-cutter, and the actors feel jaded. Except for the actress playing Mona, she gives it an honest try.
The dialog-to-brawling ratio is very unfavourable for Adkins, who also looks fairly awkward handling firearms. The script has more holes than plot, but could have been rather easily fixed, which is all the more frustrating.
Giving Adkins the John Wick training is probably expensive; proof-reading a 50 pages script is probably affordable.
Oh well, Adkins has done worst in the past.
But not often.

Season 1 Awesome, but sadly went downhill in 2.
I really loved season 1, it was crazy, random, unexpected. Good characters for the most part.
Only complaint was the bitchy disrespectful woman in it, which sadly is way too common, and i'm sick of that shit. Which is the 2 score for wokeness.
Season 2 only 2 episodes in the faggotry appears (crossdressing disgustingness) I tried to keep watching and turned it off. I come back a few days later it looks like from s02e02 at the end it was resolved and that character won't be back, so i'm hoping it'll continue without any of it.
So far season 2 isn't as good as the first one, but i'm still giving it a go since it seemed to get past that stuff.

Not that woke
Some one liners and conversations, but nothing indoctrinating. Husband is fully emasculated and wife is strong, independent. Wild ending.

One of my favorite re-watch movies.
I have no idea why anyone would label this movie as woke. It's very entertaining. The CGI is great. Tom hardy is outstanding. The story is, well, it's a superhero movie. It's outlandish. Just let go and enjoy it. The little quips between Venom and Eddie make the movie.
