Zero woke, in fact very little Hollywood-ness
One of the best things about this show apart from having zero woke, is there is very little of the Hollywood stench that we have been conditioned to endure:
-No pointless excess gratuitous sex or boy-girl drama
-No underwear models masquerading as FBI agents or any of that crap
-An actual theme, plots and not just a bunch of explosions, cheap jump-scares and no excessive use of CGI (sans plot), a coherent storyline.
This show also presents real questions of morality- what it's like being Palestinian vs. Israeli.
Enjoy!

Clarkson, Hammond and May
Absolutely ZERO woke, in fact anything from this trio is actually anti-woke. Enjoy.

Woke - Understood | And a review!
To elaborate - The definition of "woke" is marred by many and it's generally used if something is not absolutely consistent to a specific standard previously set. It's also up for interpretation. That's not the space for this so to the movie!
Wokeness 1/5 - For sure. There's mention of being gay, how it's obviously (and has been for years) socially acceptable and how it's still not easy to conform for those with that genetic disposition. There's other tiny elements of wokeness but nothing that's pressing in it's ideology and it does not in ANY way compromise the movie.
Movie Rating 4/5 - The special effects weren't as fantastical or high-end as other movies but they were spot on with delivery.
The direction of the movie was unlike I've seen before. I have to speak on this in a bit more detail because I think this is where we've seen misses in many modern movies. This movie is a sequel, completely wrapped up in a prequel follow up with an entire movie in terms of plot. The 'every' direction is completely spot on. From story-telling to cultural integration to actual story dissemination. I can't praise this movie enough for it's clear-cut immersion effect.
I could speak for a bit longer on how much I liked this movie but as for one who's ULTRA PISSED OFF at cutting Cavil out of the Superman spot and not in anyway understand the current direction, this Shazam sequel gives me some hope.
Totally worth an Amazon in-house purchase / rent for the family with kids over eight (if you're okay with VERY limited swearing and no graphic violence)
This is a must watch for those who are sick of wokeness, understand that people of all types Do exist but it's not being Force-Fed down your throat IN sake of telling the story. God bless, I hope you find this review helpful.

No Woke, But Basically Just a Remake.
No woke here. However it's basically just a remake of the first one sometimes scene for scene. The acting is generally good but the cinematography, editing, clothes and music are done to go for the nostalgia hook but just come off making the film seem very dated and old. The storyline is just completely implausible and unbelievable. The dialog and writing is so cheesy and sappy it will have you rolling your eyes and laughing. There is also almost no action scenes in this action movie. It's basically a romantic drama. Training scenes are somehow more entertaining and actually look better in the original. What little action there is takes place in the final 20 or so minutes and are well done but after 90+ min of boring cheesy drama it's hardly a payoff. Better off just watching the original or if you must just skip most of it and watch the final 30 minutes of this, you wont miss much.

Woke talking points ruin it
Pointless woke talking points jammed into what could have been a solid show. Quickly becomes tedious.

Woke, but watchable
Good show, but as any modern tv product, it's plenty of LGBT+ and hidden messages (in plain sight). Although, it's worth the ride.

Painfully Unfunny
Just really not funny at all. Acting is mostly ok. Woke is of course all the diversity boxes checked including the idiot white male driver and the female boss and female driver who all the men are threatened by.

Inferior Prequel With Minor Woke
This is a far inferior film that doesn't even feel like it belongs in the same franchise. Woke elements consist of some modern feminism, and comments containing white guilt. While the acting and SFX are well done the story is lacking. The first 2 films blend humor and over the top action scenes and are an enjoyable parody of Bond spy films. This is a serious boring mostly drama with bland action scenes and questionable writing that jumps around and frequently makes no sense.

Woke trash, couldn't even finish it.
Not much else I can add that hasn't been said already but I rarely stop a movie in the middle and not at least try to finish it later. I just didn't care anymore once the fighting started in the office and the bad guys or whoever they were started jamming 'specific items' up their butts I figured I could find a million other things to watch right now that didn't involve that...

Not Horror, Just Horrible, And Woke
Where to start with this disaster. Usual modern feminist anti-male nonsense-all the males are either incompetent morons or a-holes or both. This is not horror either more like sci-fi. The acting is just atrocious especially by the child and the CEO. The story and writing is completely illogical and makes no sense. Advanced A.I and robotics like this would have a massive price tag and be completely implausible to market as a childs toy. Why exactly does M3gan seem to just suddenly start talking, acting and moving like a human? Why are no safety protocols whatsoever programmed in? Why does she suddenly run through the woods on all fours? Why does she suddenly start moving and jerking around like a contortionist? How is she able to instantly hack and take over secured encrypted networks like a smart home, cell network, and car? Why does a 4ft childs toy robot have super human strength? Why does a small home pressure washer pick up a 250lb person and throw them 20 feet across the room? How does garbage like this get funded and made? None of these questions are answered. Just go watch any other AI film instead, whatever you pick can't be any worse.

Riveting detective drama
I'm very pleased with this Canadian series and frankly surprised it isn't full of woke elements or underlying agendas. The character development is interesting and revealed naturally, and the acting is so thoughtful and smooth that I forget I'm watching a TV series.
I'm only finished with the First Season, and I'm hoping the next continue in this same vane.
Currently it's available on Hulu.

I enjoyed it fully. Overall, not woke.
I'm going to put wokeness at 1/5 as there is a bisexual character who sleeps with anything that walks. But wokeness is not an overarching theme. Nor is Marxism thrown in your face at all.
