Nothing woke. It's basically a Men In Black clone. The acting is decent and the VFX are passable if nothing special. It's a little corny sometimes but it's entertaining enough sci-fi comedy.

Woke free

Feel good Christian movie. No woke. Brief DIE character for one scene.

Not woke

Good sequel that stands on its own without outdoing the original. Third in the works and welcomed. Nice twist ending. Setting in France, so DIE casting accurate? Only dinging 1/5

Another Woke Unnecessary Soulless Remake

A LOT of DEI casting. They basically combined Hunt's and Paxton's character into one female lead and deleted the male character and replaced him with an annoying YouTube douche streamer. A lesbian actor in what is clearly a lesbian character.
The finale has the actress going off recklessly completely on her own to rescue everyone because she has to be a strong independent female
character who don't need no man. So many problems with this unnecessary remake. The VFX for the tornadoes looks no better and in some cases worse then the original from 1996. Another entire movie full of unlikable characters. Bad writing again shows up here. Why in the hell do the characters insist on saying the lead females name every 20-30 seconds. It's so irritating and and ridiculous you could make a drinking game out of it and never be able to finish the movie. The tornado scenes somehow have no excitement to them, they just seem bland and boring and never seems like your in a tornado. The vehicles
never move they just sit there in contrast with the original where they are constantly getting beat up by the storms. Windows smash, trucks twist and turn, dents and smashes all over the vehicles, here none of that. Also I'm expected to believe those pathetic little augers that look like they are about 16-18" are going to hold a truck stable in the dirt in a tornado? Sure. I won't even comment on the end where those same augers easily bore through black top road with
no problem. What the hell is with the nasty dirty meth head looking actress? Then there's a whole town in tornado alley who all just fun around like idiots when the sirens go off like they wouldn't know where the shelters are and where to go. There's more but you get the idea, combine the bad writing with the over the top woke DEI elements and your better off watching the original again. It's dated but still holds up better than this thing.

Nothing woke. Excellent homage to 80's alien sci/fi. The time period is well done, the acting and dialog are good, the writing is good.
Is it original? No. Is is anything you haven't seen before? Probably not. But it is well done and entertaining without any of the woke
political preachy bs.

Well made yet insufferable

This movie is an early example of wokeness where Hollywood still knew how to make good movies but wokeness had begun infesting it in the form of feminism. Everything about the movie is good except Bond's sidekick who is a despicable girlboss and nothing but a liability to Bond and totally unlikeable, yet The Narrative requires him to fawn over her as though she's deserving of adoration. Ruins an otherwise good movie.

Definately worth watching, more so than normal NCIS.

I'm really enjoying this so far, there are a few masculine characters but along with that some bullshit.

Like of course there are a couple of cuntish, disrespectful women in it and the main guy seems to be falling in love with one of them wheras any actual self respecting man wouldn't go near these women. But they aren't enough to ruin it, and not as bad as the woman in the latest Reacher season.

Otherwise fairly worth the watch, enjoyable and interesting.

I've seen some of the original NCIS but don't think i've ever watched a full episode. This one doesn't feel like it's the same character, but I watched it standalone cos the trailer looked good, not having watched the original enough to really compare.

Smashing.

First series: fantastic writing, concise, meaningful dialogs, tight photography.
Found it superior to Daredevil. The Punisher is less super-hero, more gritty film noir.

Well, there's still Hollywood trauma recovery, and Hollywood balistic, which are somehow more jarring in a more realistic context.

I would say the purely action part is inferior to the Ennis run of the comic, as Castle can be something of a meathead, whereas Ennis' Punisher was a cold, calculated, tactical killing machine.

Characters are great, no effort skipped in developing even tertiary characters, and the acting is rock solid.

Still, white men can be good or bad, but all bad characters are white men. It's Hollywood, baby.




Second series, well, introduces a single mom love interest (young boy, sort of makes sense in Castle's case), and a sassy, mean, juvenile girl-boss. The kind to give lip when she's just been rescued from assassination, and is even further out of her depth than she is up her own arse.
In short, an unlikeable moron. An unfortunate choice for someone present in most scenes.
She does get better over time, but only marginally. Far less screen time, which is an improvement.
The female mercs start kicking less arse in the second half, because a 100 pounds disadvantage is one hell of a disadvantage.
Tactically speaking, everybody has a two-digits IQ; the "woods at night" scene is particularly egregious.

Honestly, it feels like they started to wokify the whole thing, and thought better of it halfway through.

The new actors are, well, probably less expensive. At least, Stewart is excellent. Photography still top-notch. Music's good. Alice In Chains, always nice. The writing is still decent. Sort of the Good, the Bad and the Ugly, Punisher style, with a side dish of Harley Quin (although Mr J is rather unconvincing).
Still excellent, but definitely a sophomore slump.

Nothing woke but I did exit out at the 45 minute mark. The acting is fine and the cinematography and time period is well done. The main problem here is that it plays out more like a docudrama than an actual movie. There isn't really any plot or main storyline to follow and for some reason they decided to tell most of it from the point of view of one of the club members wives. That is the big problem is the character of Kathy the narrator. This might be one of the all time most annoying brain bleed inducing voices ever, and you will here it A LOT!
The movie isn't so much bad as it is just so pointless, meandering and dull. Like a wannabe Scorsese on valium.

I didn't notice anything overly woke other than the ships first mate in real life was male and was gender swapped in the movie to female for
no reason other than DEI. The acting is mostly good and as far as I was able to tell the story seemed to be very accurate to the true events.
None of the usual overblown Hollywood 'lets make it better and add a bunch of things that never happened' nonsense.
It's a good story and an entertaining watch.

Swapped gender roles with plenty of DEI

White men are either inept or corrupt. White women are powerful and cruel, you know like "the patriarchy". The black female lead is the most intellectually superior, altruistic human on Earth. Plenty of feminist, independent women and stereotypical LGB representation. The brilliant alien can't seem to function or do his work without a stream of even more brilliant females to help him tie his shoes. Every facet of this show is colored by typical woke, feminist, DEI programming.

No surprises though. This was made by CBS Studios. CBS Studios produced Star Trek: Discovery, which has been praised for its inclusion of LGBTQ+ characters, as well as shows that tackle issues of race and gender, like The Equalizer or The Good Fight.

Nothing woke. This is a terrible movie. The acting is truly awful but the beginning with the 'Cherry" actress is really a new low in acting.
She is so bad it's actually painful to watch. It's standard slasher movie cliches with nothing new. The killer is a generic slasher monster as
is the the story. Even the kills are boring and not worth watching it for. No scares, no gore just boredom.
