A somewhat original concept. It's basically a variation on found footage with most of the movie taking place in 1 room with Pratts character
and an AI judge, the rest of the scenes are various camera footage shots both past and live. The acting is pretty good and it's a look at a
conceivable and disturbing future with AI and constant surveillance at every turn. The writing and story are for the most part well thought out
and implemented with a few stretches toward the end. The entire motive and plot for everything when all revealed at end has some holes in it but not enough to ruin it in my opinion. Probably one of the biggest weak points is some shoddy bad looking CG particularly in pretty much any shot with the hover bike. It looks poor at best and downright comical other times. It's a small thing and this is still a very entertaining
and watchable movie. As for woke free....not exactly. There is a strong minority casting presence in general and the nonwhite female officer's acting is just not very good. Searching her reveals she is a boxer not an actor and has been in only 3 other movies I've never heard of before this, than gets a major role. Sounds a little like a DEI hire. Without spoiling a major plot point there is a setup for a mixed race coupling to get
that box checked that seems to be in absolutely every single thing now. The villain is pretty obvious early on and checks the woke box as well. It's hard to say more without giving away spoilers.

Nothing woke. Based on a true story that took place between 2006-2009. This deserved to get more attention than it did. Extremely well made, visceral, gritty and uncomfortable war movie. Excellent acting and cinematography. Great FX for a budget of only 18 million. This is close quarters down and dirty filmmaking at it's finest. Highly recommended and also to look up the true story as well. What happened here is completely avoidable and shows yet again the incompetency of government and should piss you off. Make sure to watch through the credits for interviews with the real soldiers involved.

Nothing woke. Another classic older comedy that mixes physical slapstick with good jokes and a little stoner humor as well. Great soundtrack you don't really see in movies now and actual comedy without all the woke agenda garbage. Manages to avoid most of the more sappy romance stuff in favor of straight comedy. If you like the late 90's early 200's comedy style give this a try.

Nothing woke. Based on a true story. There is some speculation from some of the people interviewed that the main character is gay but it's never confirmed one way or the other and is never shown or talked about in any way. The main female character is a nasty person but everyone recognizes it as such. Shot in a sort of half documentary half regular film style. Interviews with real people mixed with actors and a typical film style this movie is both hilarious and tragic at the same time. The acting is great and the humor both intentional and as a result of interviews is just spot on. Highly recommended but may not be for everyone.

Hell Yeah! This is a great movie!

Not a single dull moment!
It lived up to every one of my expectations!
Starring Ryan Gosling, who was also one of the producers!
ABSOLUTELY AWESOME!

GO SEE IT IN THE THEATERS IF YOU CAN!

It’s totally worth it!

ENJOY IT!

Large amount of DEI casting choices. Another movie where white seems to be a minority. 2 second scene of a flamboyant gay character in the background. Most of the angels are something other than white and Reeves while one of the few white angels can't seem to do anything right. The main character is a constant victim yet refuses to do anything to help himself and reputedly makes dumb choices. Then around the halfway point it gets really preachy. Rich people and corporations are bad, poor struggling people are good and taken advantage of
by the rich. Unions are great. Rich people have it easy and never worked for anything. The story is silly and the humor is just not there. By the 1 hour mark it was getting so cringe with the messaging I couldn't take it anymore. If there had been some actual funny moments mixed in maybe this would of been watchable.

One of the most boring dull movies I've seen recently. A spy thriller this is not. I only lasted 40 minutes and was bored out of my mind. The story is very basic but every scene is too long and drawn out and nothing really happens. Even the actors seemed bored and most of the time talked like they were half asleep. Not too woke but the usual token POC characters and some hints of possible feminist girl power nonsense to come.

One of my favorite re-watch flicks

It's been awhile since I've seen this but, a friend and I were discussing this last night. I realized how much this movie has going for it. The chemistry between the stellar cast was one of those rare convergences. John Cusack, Joan Cusack, Dan Akroyd, Mini Driver, and Alan Arkin really brought this together. I can't think of a single woke element. It's a dark comedy about a hitman with "moral flexibility" who seems to be having some kind of conscience re-awakening. The exchanges between Cusack and Arkin are classic.

Good movie none woke

I love this show. I don't find woke agenda in it, just laughter.
A white charachter's brother is black and gay; but I don't find woke inspired messages or agenda

Good and none woke

Good movie, not woke at all

Not 100% woke but close

For starters, the cast’s ethnic diversity doesn’t reflect American reality.
Furthermore, the good guys end up being Hispanic, Black, or otherwise non-Caucasian, while the bad guys are white—and, if they’re women, blonde.
In two out of three episodes, there’s at least one line about how hard life is if you’re a woman or brown, though leading roles are females.
And every time someone is speaking about families, their trying to explane how toxic they are.
I’ve watched half of the first season, and doctors are arguing about cutting testicles in a transgender teenager.
There aren’t any gay characters in the cast yet, but I still have a lot of episodes left to watch.
Edit: in the forth season a new resident is gay.

Great book, good movie.

The woke is minimal. Climate change is presumptive, but without any agenda or major concern in the story. This is about a clear and present threat to the solar system. There's enough in the trailers about the alien, Rocky, that it's not a spoiler to mention him. In a nutshell, Grace is sent on a one-way mission to a star that may provide a solution to the threat. He meets up with Rocky, who is basically doing the same thing from his star system.
How does the movie compare to the book?...
There are basically two ways to portray a book in movies: Make a series, such as Queen's Gambit, Reacher, Pride and Prejudice, etc., or re-write the story in a screenplay that will fit into a single movie, like this one. They did a great job with that in my opinion. They left a lot out of the story and added what was necessary to rebuild continuity. As usual, the book was better, but the movie is definitely worth the watch. I recommend both.
I just realized that the paragraph I just wrote could also describe The Martian, which was also written by Andy Weir.
