Pha-Q woke's Reviews
Nothing woke. This will definitely not be something that appeals to everyone but I enjoyed it. This is a straight up comedy more so than
a any kind of serious heist movie. Every character is incompetent and it's pretty implausible though I suppose it's never really so ridiculous as to be impossible. The acting and humor for me was great. Though it did deal with local Boston politics and corruption I don't recall there being any mention of specific political affiliation, if so I missed it. If you want a fast paced comedy, heist, caper movie that's just trying to entertain rather than tell a deep thinking story this may do if for you.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Black shaved head female head of assassins. Way to much DEI non white characters for 83% white UK. These movies have been done many time before by now. The aging hitman who doesn't want to retire. There is nothing new here but it's not particularly bad either. The acting is ok and the writing and action scenes are average. Waltz while a good actor is a bit miscast in the role but it's not terrible other than the ridiculous
idea that a 70 year old can repeatedly go to a club and take multiple 20 something women home all the time. Still you could do worse than this movie.

Another Amateur No Budget Zombie Movie
I noticed nothing woke. While the story is average and nothing new it could of been a decent zombie movie. However the acting, dialog and
writing is awful. The zombie FX are weak, the actors clearly don't know anything about firearms. There is terrible looking excessive muzzzle
flash added to every gunshot. Characters are constantly chambering rounds right before firing the gun meaning they are walking around with
unloaded weapons all the time. The fight choreography is bad. Somehow vehicles are operating and running perfectly fine 10 years into the apocalypse even though gas and batteries would never be good for that long. Lead actress is supposed to be in her teens but is clearly not.

Slightly Below Average Creature Horror
No really too woke but there is the beta weak father and the nasty agressive female character. The acting is average except for the asian
guy who is awful. This is a candidate for possible A.I. written script. It's not so much bad as just so cliche and average. This has every
creature feature cliché you can think of. There are no scares and although a decent amount of blood and gore it somehow still seems tame. The real weakness is the unlikable characters, every single one of them. This also features the extremely annoying and stupid Hollywood
'nailgun works like an actual gun' b.s. If you really like creature movies this is somewhat watchable.
