Die Hard Rip Off With Some Woke
Mixed race couple again. The white male in that relationship is a total whimpering beta douche. Rich white people bad. In fact everyone in this are selfish terrible people. Except the mixed race couple of course. Typical Hollywood feminist matriarch. Loud, aggressive, unhinged. A good bit of DEI hires mixed in. The comedy is not funny and there is way too much of it. Comes of as a bad slapstick parody attempt at die hard done poorly. Lots of reviews talking about the violence, blood and gore. When I turned it off at the 1 hour mark the violence is almost slapstick, the blood minimal and no gore to speak of. The writing is terrible. Exterior perimeter guards who stand facing the house leaving the perimeter and there backs wide open. One of the thieves who have shown no problem murdering everyone is clearing rooms and gets his weapon taken by Santa but can't use it because the safety is on. Why the hell would he have the safety on? 2 armed security guards are standing 10-15 ft with weapons trained on one of the thieves who is standing still only armed with a baton. They both run toward him without firing a shot and get killed. My god this is stupid. Just go watch Die Hard instead. Any of them really. Even the worst Die Hard is better than this.

A Little Research Would have Helped
Yeah. I couldn't make it 5 minutes into this film. How many times can a man repeat, "I love him"? In Saltburn, a whole lot. Do yourself a favor and look up a tiny bit of research on this movie. Seems it's jam packed with homoeroticism, "pent-up testosterones" and shirtless young boys. I knew something was up once I started to puke in my mouth.

As Woke as it Gets
My wife watches this mainly because she's been watching it for years. I can't comment on episodes from the past, but you'll be hard pressed to find any episode that doesn't have in-your-face wokeness, esp. when there are woke fires burning in the media (i.e., cops shoots black man). We then have an entire episode dedicated to revising the real life drama in all it's wokeness.

Unique feel
The movie has a unique feel stemming from its video game origins. I never played the game and ultimately the plot proved too thin to keep my interest. YMMV. No woke.

Holy shit
With the Obamas consulting on this Netflix film, viewer discretion is advised. Do not give them money or clicks.
The movie starts off on the wrong track, with a B-movie feel and poor acting by Julia Roberts. However, the movie aspires to be much more, approaching Hitchcock or Kubrick at times, but trying a bit too hard with the camerawork.
Spoilers follow, but they are mild.
This movie is very woke, because Julia Roberts' character is racist, and later she realizes she was wrong and in the same instant she is ready to fuck the black guy while her husband is in the same house *and* the black guy probably just lost his wife. What a despicable character. The black guy's daughter even confronts her about why she is so awful. The black girl is also racist, but she never has a revelation that she is wrong. Additionally, there is a flawed analogy about people being irrational in the markets to being irrational about blacks. (In reality, Leftists are the ones who reject statistics and rationality.) Lesson learned: white people are deplorable.
As I watched, I wondered if I was really seeing Masonic and illuminati symbolism. This seems confirmed by an X post by @vegastarr, who also points out very subtle but indisputable symbolism about the slave trade and the oppression of Native Americans.
There is less veiled symbolism in the t-shirts. I think the "Obey" t-shirt is a reference to They Live. I think the NASA t-shirt is a jab at NASA (spending money on non-Earthly matters), because the girl wearing it is obsessed with escaping reality via the TV show Friends, even as civilization might be ending. Consider the Bikini Kill t-shirt. Their 1996 song (and album) titled Reject All American has lyrics that ChatGPT summarizes as follows: "The song calls for a rejection of all the values and expectations that are imposed on the American people, especially women, by the dominant culture, and instead advocates for a more authentic, diverse, and rebellious way of living." Sounds Obama-ish.
There is a massive jab at Tesla. The Apple TV show Invasion did this too. The likely reason for these jabs is that Elon Musk supports free speech, while the directors, Netflix, Apple, and the Obamas do not. Censorship is woke.
There is a point where I think we hear Obama's thoughts when the black guy summarizes the words of his powerful associate. The associate said that actually more terrifying than an evil cabal is the truth that nobody is in control and everything could collapse at any instant.
There is a lot going on under the simple facade of this movie. Some of it is interesting character dynamics. And some of it is mind control with an agenda. Obey.

Home Alone vs Soviet invaders
In this prequel to Home Alone and Dirty Dancing, the Soviets start their invasion of America by parachuting elite troops in to assault a high school in Colorado. Some of the high school students escape and go on to lead a highly successful guerilla campaign, when in reality they would have been wiped out quickly. For a tad more credibility, the kids are facing Cuban regulars for most of the engagements. The movie is not intended to be realistic, though, and it mostly works as popcorn entertainment.
One could make comparisons to the current situation in Ukraine. In response, some Eastern European countries are starting to allow their cucked citizens to own guns - with much documentation. In the movie, the very first order of business of the invaders after combat was to get the government registries of guns. And the sad truth is that Coloradan high school students are better trained and equipped than European civilians.

Took a few minutes to think about this movie before dropping my thoughts.
When I'm sizing up a movie for its wokeness level, I aim for a middle ground.
It's easy to fall into the trap of seeing shadows everywhere – like thinking a scene of poverty is a dig at bad capitalists or a flawed white character is some kind of anti-white statement. But let's not get carried away. Most movies aren't trying to be deep political statements. They're just movies.
Bringing this back to "Leave the World Behind." Initially, it just seemed like another flick. Nothing too preachy or in-your-face about it. But then I've found out the Obamas are in the mix as producers. That’s a curveball. We're talking about Barack Hussain, a guy known for his specific viewpoints and political stance. Suddenly, the film isn’t just a film anymore. It's got the Obama stamp on it, and that makes you watch it with a different set of eyes.
You start wondering: Are there messages here I didn't catch before? Is this film subtly pushing an agenda? Obama link is a lens that brings certain aspects of the movie into sharper focus, making you question what's really going on beneath the surface. It's not just about the story being told; it's about who's telling it and why.
That flipped my whole perspective on a film.

Happy Christmas
Accurate casting for location. Token negro. Maybe slightly effeminate and unassertive husband/male lead compared to the more assertive and dominant wife/female lead. Rounding down due to lack DIE casting, lack of woke elements/themes, and no forced interracial couple or gay character even implied.
