This one should get a pass
In the wake of Burn Loot Murder riots, films like this get a bad rap, but this was not a race-baiting or woke film. It made you think, made you feel, and promoted the interracial understanding we had way back in the 90's. Where oh where did that inclusivity go.
Viewed with revisionism, this is a woke film. But viewed with objectivity, perhaps it shouldn't be.

In retrospect, woke, but...
this was a great film which was not heavy-handed with the woke. It made you think, made you feel for the characters, and gave a grand sense of humanity to its purpose. It's about "evil white men," because all race films are, but doesn't promote white guilt or stir anger. Mild woke, and that's only in retrospect of the angrily Burned Looted and Murdered society we're living in at the moment. It will probably overcome this moment and live on as a good film.

Meh, it's a chick flick.
Women back in the day liked certain levels of emasculation in their guys and no one does it better than Will Ferrell. It's only very mildly woke a chick flick, since it doesn't push gender ideology or destruction of the family unit. No overt racism or politics, either.

Woke, woke, woke.
While the film is actually quite good and has a shocking ending that has you searching about the veracity of it, it's borne of the seed that is transgender woke before they tried to force-feed it to all our kids.
Woke, woke, woke and fake-dick woke. But still a good movie.

No woke
A historical masterpiece, kinda cliche at this point, but no woke. Lots of socio-political commentary, but Gump is above it all and takes no part in any of the wokeism of whatever era he may bumble his way into. Heartwarming and funny, and woke free.

The movie faps to Hillary Clinton
if you're a fan of Hillary, you may want to rally behind this film, because it's hard to like. It's slow and repetitive, giving the audience nothing new while emasculating a genre which generally appeals to dudes (and chick who like things that go boom, like me). It's a matter of taste, maybe you'll like it. As long as you wish Hillary won the election.

The woke still made it fun
There is plenty of "woke" in the character of Lisbeth in terms of her ultra-feminist character. But it's not a hinderance to her character building or the story; in fact, it's essential. What made her the mess that she is? There's enough motivation and emotional distress in the perfect portrayal that you can't help but be fascinated. Woke, yeah. But the kind of woke we like.

Sad historical piece, but no woke
When this film was made there was little politics and lots of tragedy in the aftermath of war, at least when it came to filmmaking. There are no so-called woke elements in this film. Historical accuracy and bias in terms of perspective may filter in, but that's not woke.

The best of Italian cinema
This film is an iconic legend loved around the world. Not a drop, not a sniff, not an errant frame of woke. If you love films, especially the way they used to be before the Brandon administration took over, give this film your afternoon.

Dumb teenage sexy romp, no woke
Funny as hell and very 90's, but not a shred of woke to be found, not in casting, not in message, not even in sexuality.
