True story, no woke

Films about history these days tend to be rewritten into uncomfortable diversity checklists, but here’s a good-old sports flick about a hockey team willing gold at the Olympics back in the day. Skating is excellent (since they opted to cast actual hockey players and not train actors), and it makes you proud to be an American.

No woke, lotsa rain

A good old-fashioned lawyer film about a newbie lawyer taking on The Man. No woke crap, no LTBTQ agenda, no feminazis or diversity quotas. Just lots of lawyer jokes and a non-gay Danny Devito. Ah, the good old days.

Annoying

Lots of curse words bleeped out but the typical phrases that many children would know what word is meant.. for example: the turtle repeatedly throughout the movie says: “I can’t hear sh!t” and it’s very obvious. Also phrases are often used like “I’ll see you in heck.” Overall, I just found it incredibly violent and desensitizing for children. I really wish I had known this and from now on I will be extremely careful as it seems the agenda is to paint the world as every single family is lgbtq. On a news flash the writing is on the screen at least 2 minutes “wealthy person actually goes to prison.” It’s just beyond rediculous the indoctrination in these films as of late. I’m beginning to realize non biased movies are done for good and the last place I have supported California film and animation movies was children’s films I can no longer stomach. It looks like family movie nights are finished for us.

Boring, woke.

Ticking all the “diversity” boxes in casting, leaving out anything about Mr Rogers, the film uses him as a narrator for a dull, bland story that is nothing but disappointment and mainstream “journalism” Poor Me syndrome. Not a documentary - everyone in power from the on-set director to producers are all women, even though in reality there were no female directors on set for the show. It’s like the skank who directed it is trying to rewrite history to make it more woke.
Don’t bother - not worth a second glance.

The Island free from Woke

Action-packed Michael Bay take on the good old dystopian society / escape the Matrix deal, played by pretty people. No woke whatsoever. Enjoy!

The most boring detective drama ever

This is most obvious masturbatory piece a film-school amateur could jizz onto the screen. Not only is the script convoluted and illogical, but the characters some kind of woke checklist of poor-me moralism and downtrodden vaginas that make the whole thing unwatchable. Looking for some answers by plodding through the boredom? There aren’t any. Looking for some suspense? Like a wank into a transgender plastic blow-up doll, all buildup fails to make it past the foreplay. Don’t waste your time.

Apparently sticks to the story of the comic, but pure wokefest with 90% of relationships shown on screen are homosexual.
Along with the... usual "swapping" stuff.

One of my favorite re-watchable flicks

I can't think of any woke nonsense at all in this. Mel brings the character, Jerry to life in a way that only he could accomplish. The chemistry with Julia Roberts is perfection. Patrick Stewart is the perfect bad-guy/good-guy/bad-guy again. Let's face it, it's all Mel. Watch it. it's good.

Corny, but non-woke.

The script could use a little polishing and then some, and it plays like a sitcom, but that's probably what the story was meant to be. There are a few scenes that make fun of woke indoctrination and the age gap between the tough analog world of Karate Kid and the pansy young generation which the wimpy students have grown up in, and the directors play it up for laughs.
No real woke, at least not in the first couple seasons I've seen so far. Let's hope they keep this series just entertaining and corny the way it is!

Predictable "hero fights for sassy brat kid" story

The movie is a long string of action-flick tropes, from the "hero with a tragic past" to the "action scene in Eastern Europe" all the way to the good-old "betrayed by your own team" thing. There has to be a reason to fight, and like every film school seminar ever, that ends up being some bratty, sassy little kid with some rando illness.
The bad guy was seriously channelling his Jim Carrey Robotnik throughout the whole of it, which was less annoying than it was funny.
But! If you like that stuff, and eat it up with popcorn, then go for it. It's what you need.

As far as woke goes, it comes in the form of the cookie-cutter feminzazi characters. I mean, each one of them is the same exact boring inhuman fem-bot made of the same chunk of high-heeled playdoh.
Yes, the 19-year-old waif beating up hulking 30-40 y.o. battle-worn men three times her size without ever breaking a sweat or scratching a nail. Yes, all the women in this story are bossy as hell, in the same bossy-bitch "on the rag" way, even the sassy little brat for which our protagonist fights. They ALL lose their cool and yell at the guys. One of them (same character, otherwise) goes full-blown Star Wars Purple Haired DIsney General on the story and blows herself up for absolutely no reason whatsoever except.... the directors were a fan of the purple-haired lady, maybe? It seems that all of the female characters - all of them - were pretty much shoved into the story because Netflix thought it needed more tits.
The story would have been so much better without them.

Is that woke? Eh, enough to stick out like highly manicured thumbs. But if you ignore the screamy bitches, the action is still action-y enough to action. So, action on, Gray Man.

No woke, lots of history and God

A historical drama about a man who fought in British parliament to abolish the slave trade. Despite it being a British film, it doesn't feel like a Morality Play at all - no woke casting or woke characters, no lecturing. In addition, the acting is beautiful and the pacing is good. Classy film.

Incredible

One of my favorite tongue in check sci-fi films of all time. Brilliant acting, superb script, excellent special effects (for it's time). Pokes fun at where society could go. This is NOT a serious sci-fi film, but it's definitely not a spin on Spaceballs. It's just a great film with humor. Weakest actor was the President, but even he had a place in the film.
