Woke powder peppered all over this show

I was given multiple glowing praises for this show, and since Noah Wyle was the main actor, I was looking forward to watching this recommended show. I wasn't able to make it past the second episode. It is tainted with today's far-left narratives. One of the first ER patient we see is allegedly pushed onto the subway tracks, doctors says "This is a hate crime!" because she's from Nepal. Why is it a hate crime? Why not just... a crime? Second episode: Doctor 1 "What's going to happen to them (parents of child who accidently ingested cannabis edibles)?" Doctor 2 "Nothing, because they're white!". All these narratives are peppered into the show, ruining it. I really wanted to enjoy this show, but this isn't for me!

I am completely unfamiliar with the game this is based on but am aware of who Markiplier is. As an adaptation this may be a good one and those that know the game may get more out of it than I did. The acting is good as are the FX and sets. I found the story and pacing to be lacking.
At over 2hrs the movie drags a lot with long slow drawn out sections of nothing but the character taking photos, talking to himself and plotting
a course for the sub. I also would barely call this horror, more cosmic sci-fi with horror elements. It's not terrible by any means it's just not really for me. I didn't see anything I would consider woke. I don't know if the female lead is from the game or not but either way she doesn't come across as a girlboss at all. The cast is very tiny and she just seems to be the one in charge of that particular group. I've said it before but a female in a position of authority is not automatically a girlboss and a single female authority position is not instantly an agenda push.

This is a slow moving folk horror movie so if you looking for fast paced action horror this isn't it. The highlight is the great acting from
the Liz character, the other 3 are ok but not great. I think the movie would of benefited from casting a better lead male. This is a very
unsettling eerie film that uses atmosphere, shadows and editing to great affect. The FX are great but I feel like the use of CG in some scenes
was unnecessary and actually hurts the movie a bit. It can be a bit confusing at the start but it all comes together in the end. I think it could
of used a little more story at the begging for character setup as well. It just starts at the cabin with a couple that's been together for a year
and is apparently very serious yet they seem very unsure of each other and uncomfortable. They are also very suspicious of everything right away and we aren't given any context as to why. These are relatively small things overall and still a great movie if you like folk horror. As for woke, this is really hard to say anything about without giving away major spoilers and I don't want to for a movie like this. I can see where the ending could be taken as a possible feminist statement and female victimhood and speaking against male dominance. Given nothing leading up to it is woke I don't think it's meant to be taken that way but I'm really not sure. I think this one could be taken on how you view it but I can't deny there seems to be something there. I'll give it a one woke since it's only at the very end and it's more subtle.

I haven't seen the original foreign film this remakes. Basically a dark comedy about a dysfunctional couple going to a cabin each with a plan to kill the other, but their are escaped killers hiding in the attic. Another movie where everyone is unlikable. Your supposed to root for the couple
to escape and get back together but why? The wife is a horrible nasty selfish mega bitch and the husband is a pathetic weak, beta coward. The husband is an overly emotional buffoon while the wife is smart, calm and in control. She cheats on her husband and treats him like trash than blames him or everything and says it's all his fault she acts like she does. 3 out of 4 main male characters are dumb as rocks. There is an attempted gay rape scene and the female criminal is borderline girlboss material. The acting is ok but the characters are written horribly, despite attempts at dark humor it's really not funny. The final 40 or so minutes devolves into a ridiculous over the top gore fest that could of been an ok payoff if the first three quarters of the movie had been better. I finished it and it's sort of watchable just not great.

Zero politics.

Very non-commercial film, slow paced and atmospheric. Superior photography coz it's reminiscent of the 70s where the plot is set.

Feminist anti-male trash. Hilariously bad.

Poor little immigrant girl is rejected because of her Indian heritage so she is "forced" to assimilate with the evil, intolerant white majority.

That's almost as bad as it gets.

The story about michael and his origins.

good movie, didn't found anything woke in it, the story makes sense and there's nothing that feels forced.
i could be wrong tough.

Not woke.

the only thing that i would consider wrong about this movie is that when the vigilante invade the islamic house, the father would have been fucking the daughter the son would be raping a british underage girl and the mother would be masturbating in the corner.

This plays out more like a bogus leftist "history" lesson about American Indians than like an actual horror film that wants to entertain. There's plenty of bullshit about "white man bad" doing bad bad things to Indians, the film delves on it too long and too often, as if hammering that point home was far more important than the plot itself.

Plus, from the main four male characters, the Latino guy and the black guy are nice, whereas a white guy is a borderline sociopath. There is even a touch of Girl Boss nonsense at one point.

So no, this movie doesn't try to hide its Sorosian leanings. The filmmakers were more concerned with pleasing their billionaire Marxist overlords than making a fun film, which this is extremely far from being. It is very boring, really bad, with horrible acting and a massively drawn out plot.

they put politics into minions. F#KING MINIONS, ITS A KIDS MOVIE FOR GOD SAKE!

stopped watching when the woman's rights movement come into focus.

Horrible cast. Two nepotists and an Asian woman that's as convincing as a supercop as I am as ruler of entire galaxies. Besides, she is a terrible actress, full amateur.

Very DEI, quite gender-focused, in terms of men bad/dumb, women competent/confident. The usual feminist fantasies...

Unfunny, brainless.
