Strange Movie That Doesn't' Know What It Wants To Be
It's not really that woke but there is a gay prostitute and the daughter's boyfriend is a total beta. This is such a strange movie. The acting is great but the blend of silly stupid humor and serious dark revenge action movie just don't really work together. There is also some plot holes where the progression of events don't really make sense. Something will happen and you will be left wondering if you missed something or how the hell that happened. This could of been better but it's still not the worst.

Worst Comic Book Movie Ever
This is just complete trash. As soon as super racist George Lopez comes on screen you know what your in for. Police bad and corrupt, white people bad and racist, corporations bad and racist, rich people bad, poor people good, illegal immigrants good and virtuous. It is spewed out like post taco bell excrement at every second. Everything about this production oozes incompetence from the director. This is another unproven DEI director that has done nothing to deserve making a 100 million dollar movie except check the right boxes. The acting and dialogue is terrible all around. The music, cinematography, and choreography all reek of ineptitude. The CG looks cheap and doesn't blend in right. The comedy and slapstick are nonstop and terrible and the jokes aren't funny they are just eyerolling bad. You would be better off watching 2004 Catwoman, at least that wasn't woke racist trash.

Great Prequel With Just a Bit of Woke
There are a lot of black characters here for the time period. Yes I know this a fictional location in a fantasy setting. Doesn't' matter over representation is still present in the casting of obvious DEI. There are two instances where the poor black child says 'greed always beats need' obvious anti capitalism and rich bad poor good line. It's only said twice and its a small thing but must be noted. The black child is turned over at birth and hidden away at slave labor yet she somehow knows how to read and has to teach Wonka who doesn't know. Why? It's a stupid small thing but again it's there. Despite these things this is a great movie. The story is well thought out and executed. The FX and acting are great. The songs are funny and well done. There is a hint of woke there and should be recognized rather or not it happens to still be a great movie.

Old School Non Woke Action Movie
No woke that I noticed. Great action scenes, very good acting all around. This feels like a visceral brutal action movie from the 90's. Very fast paced and entertaining.

Not As Good As The First One But Still Entertaining
So woke is a way over the top DEI casting in the main characters as well as the background characters. You wont see many white people in this. One of the kids announcing he's gay and all of them saying they know and don't care is completely pointless and only there for one reason. The movie itself is pretty well done. The acting is generally pretty good and the VFX are better than most modern superheroes movies right now. It does get a little cheesy and cringe with some of the dialogue in parts but not enough that it ruined the movie. If you enjoyed the first one I would say this is worth a watch.

Horrible Family Doing Stupid Things
Nothing really woke though there are a couple negative comments about capitalism and logging. The story isn't really original but the writing is horrible. The FX are actually pretty good and the creatures look good. The acting ranges from average to terrible but the real problem is the writing. So there is an island with dangerous elves who are kept behind an electric fence and the islanders keep them fed with cows and keep them a secret from the rest of the world. Why are they renting out houses to tourists? Why is a main road right by the fenced off compound? Why are they actually living there at all? Just leave. There is nothing keeping them there. Why is there no plan for if they get out and for defending themselves? There is literally one gun on the entire island (and yes you can have hunting rifles in Denmark). The biggest issue however is the absolutely horrible family of outsiders. They are truly awful people, especially the stupid annoying daughter. Never have I wanted to see a character die horribly so bad. Everything that happens to the islanders and everyone killed is a direct result of these entitled moronic douchebag people.

Wasted Opportunity
Large amount of DEI casting. All the men are either morons, betas or villains. All male police force is corrupt or bumbling idiots and the only ones who are competent and not corrupt are the 2 Asian females. Awkwafina as a cop is laughable. She is 5'1 beating up on large men 2-3 times her size. Head of the crime family is female. The acting is decent but the humor is just silly and terrible and never lands. The horror is also a miss. The splatter gore effects are pretty good and this could of been a good cult classic if they dropped the stupid humor and made it more serious horror.

Absolutely Woke, But Still Not Terrible
This is definitely woke. Right from the start Mario and Luigi are complete bumbling idiots and it never changes. Peach is a complete Mary Sue girl power badass. Luigi is now the damsel in distress and Peach runs the whole kingdom since the Toads made her their leader.....because reasons. The trials obstacle course Mario fails at repeatedly even with a power up and NEVER EVEN COMPLETES! Peach says she completed it right away but it's because she grew up there. Then why have the trials at all since all the Toads were born there and with that reasoning they should too. Her and Mario then go to leave on their quest and all the Toads ask who Mario is, her response, "he's not important" In fact the whole movie the only time Mario is not a failure is with a power up. Luigi spends the entire movie as a coward sniveling in the corner and only finally redeems himself when he and Mario defeat Bowser, but only with an invincibility power up, that Peach provides them with. Peach never needs a power up, for anything, she is perfect. This should have been called the Super Mary Sue Peach Movie. Despite all this it's still not the worst movie ever. The animation is very good and there is a lot of hidden easter eggs for long time Mario game players. Younger children will probably enjoy it more. Just be aware there is a heavy dose of girls better than boys messaging in this one.

Boring But Not Woke
Not really woke although the guy is a total beta. Admittedly I gave up at the 45 min mark so there could be something later. Acting is ok but the story is just boring and not funny. It's basically just 2 strangers telling each other stories about their failed lives and experiences. It's not terrible just completely middle of the road humorless boredom.

Infantile Toilet Humor With DEI
Extreme DEI casting in both voice and human characters. There are almost no white human characters to be found. Also several rascist anti white comments from the Jamie Foxx character which is not surprising as he's a openly rascist p.o.s. Also a scene with 2 male and 1 female characters where the male asks the other 2 if they want to all 'kiss for a while'. Movie ends with all the dogs holding down and mutilating a white male's genitals. This might be the stupidest movie of the year. Not funny at all. Nothing but poop and dick jokes that only a challenged pre teen might find humorous. This should be watched by no one....ever.
