Watchable 1987 dark comedy with Richard Dreyfuss and Danny DeVito with some pretty good acting. While there are some really funny moments they are few with more of subtle dramedy style to it. A decent movie but not without some problems. At almost 2 hrs long it starts to drag after a while with not a whole lot happening other than salesmen sitting around talking. I think it could of benefited from a slightly shorter tighter runtime to speed things up a bit. Some character reactions to things seem a little off as well. How many times can these two scream at each other in apparent hatred yet nobody ever throws a punch. After a while it gets a bit grating and you just want one of them to kick the other one's ass and get it over with. There's nothing woke and they do a good job of getting the 60's feel right including all the incredible cars. Still worth a watch just don't expect a laugh out loud movie.

How do you have this many name actors in a movie and turn out something this bad. Nothing about this is funny, none of the jokes land at all. Every character is made to be as annoying as possible and nobody is likable. The acting is ok and this is squarely on the director who happens to be Jonah Hill. I've never understood why he is so highly regarded. He's not really bad but he's an average actor who is basically the same character in every movie including this one. This was just painful to watch and I gave up after 30 minutes. As for woke there is some Dei casting and an over the top flamboyant gay character.

A Korean crime thriller and I guess dark comedy. The first episode is pretty confusing. Lots of random flashbacks along with character hallucinations that make it hard to follow. Some pretty good acting and a decent idea, at least in theory. This would of worked better as a movie than a series. It's just to slow and drawn out. Every episode gets more and more implausible and ridiculous with the coincidences. I watched the first 3 episodes and while it's somewhat interesting just not enough to hold my attention. The main character is just not likable at all and that doesn't help. He's such a pathetic beta and while it makes sense with the character I just started getting annoying with him after a bit. It's not really woke in those episode but there is some low level feminism that could potentially get worse as the series goes along.

Another old-school throwback type, there's been a lot of these lately. There was a surge of these types of movies in the late 80's early 90's.
Creature/monster horror/comedy with over the top gross shock gore as the selling point. They were never really scary and this isn't either.
The acting is average and it uses mostly if not all practical FX that are very hit or miss. The humor is just not funny though and despite only
75 minutes long it gets old and boring rather fast. They also made some really strange setting choices. All the music is 80's as is the home
décor but there is a PlayStation 1 hooked up to a modern flat screen TV playing a movie from 2011 on it. Everyone has cell phones and all the cars are modern. It's weird and makes little sense as does a lot of this movie. It's silly dumb and unfortunately just not that good. There's some DEI casting in the only 2 female actors under 80. 1 is mixed race Philippine and the other mixed race Chinese. One is set up as a love interest for the white son.

Feels a lot like the late 90's early 2000's screwball, misfit character/redemption comedies. An Apple TV movie I had never heard of yet was surprised how much I liked it. If you like those types of movies you will probably like this. Same characters, humor, general feel. The humor for the most part is good. There is a few cringe scenes but it manages to keep them to a minimum. There is maybe a little DEI in the casting, there is no race baiting or anything brought up but it's there. Also one scene about 30 seconds or so where a character dismantles the entire covid hypocrisy with a comparison to the 'dangers of pickleball over tennis.' It's clearly a joke but if you don't like anything that can be considered 'political' it's about 30 seconds to a minute and that's it.

So I didn't realize this was some sort of experimental movie. There is no dialogue at all and almost no sound period. 90 percent of the movie is
slow motion with loud blaring 70's songs playing over top of it with no other audio. It's not like nobody talks either, the characters clearly are
talking but there's just no audio. It feels like someone made a movie then somebody else removed the audio track and remixed various song over top of it. It's like watching a whole bunch of music videos stitched together into a movie. It gets incredibly boring very quickly. I wasn't paying much attention by the 30 minute mark and started skipping through the rest of it. A pretty well made movie as far as production goes. Everything looks right for the 70's and it seems to be well made. It's just a shame they decided to butcher it with the dumb audio choices. The only woke I really saw was some DEI casting but given it's the 70's in Detroit it may not be that inaccurate. Hard to tell anything else as it's pretty much incomprehensible as a story.

An animated DC show aimed at the woke. Loaded with graphic violence, sex jokes and language yet animated like a kids show and with ridiculous infantile humor only a teenager or mental midget would think is funny. I barely made it through the first episode of this trash. Lex luthor has been race swapped to black. Men are all stupid and women are smart and the usual angry, loud aggressive feminist types. A quick search reveals the show is packed full of rainbow mafia characters as well in future episodes.

This is another one that's a bit difficult to rate. Based on the game Silent Hill 2 it's not really a movie in the traditional sense so much
as it is an 'experience' much in the same way a game is. Everything here intentionally feels very video game like. Lighting, FX, camera angels
the way characters move and are framed in shots all feel like a game. Even the story structure is not traditional. I think unless you are very
familiar with the Silent Hill game franchise in general and Silent Hill 2 in particular this wont make much sense. I've played through the game
multiple times but it's been years and there's a good bit I didn't remember any more. Given the terrible reviews this has I'll say most people wont like it. As for woke there is a lot of DEI casting choices in background and secondary characters. This includes the black female therapist that was added for the movie and is nowhere in game. The character is pointless, unneeded and serves no purpose whatsoever. No surprise her acting is the worst in the movie. Normally this would only be a 1 for woke but adding a pointless DEI character not in the source material is getting an extra point. I thought it was worth a watch but it's probably a pass for the majority.

This was cancelled after 1 season only but thought I would give the first episode it a try. There's DEI casting and the lead investigator is a woman
who says she has a wife. This is typical of something you would see on network tv. The acting is average to poor and at this point Sutherland is basically the same character in everything he does. The writing is pretty bad with unlikely coincidences or just flat out unbelievable. It sets up the lead and his team to be framed for a crime. The problem is as far as I can tell they are actual criminals who's business is for hire illegal corporate espionage. They pretend to have some sort of ethical high ground because they screw over rich people but they are really just basic criminals. They aren't careful and just do everything right out in the open yet the lesbian investigator (who seems to know everything) can't seem to catch them? I was already bored with the first episode and seemed like it was going in the usual cliché direction of all these types of shows. I guess if you like this kind of stuff you may find it better than I did, but at only 1 season still isn't really worth it.

A sci-fi action movie that feels like a throwback to 80's and 90's movies. The acting is decent and it's a basic alien invasion type movie but
it's well done. The FX, story and writing are all pretty decent. There's nothing deep here but it's a great action sci-fi movie. I think the only
thing that really started to bother me was the characters constantly just standing there and staring at the alien instead of instantly taking off running. I can see it at the beginning but even at the end of the movie they were still doing it. It's a small thing and I'm probably rating it higher than it deserves but I enjoyed it. As for woke, I don't see it. Yes there's a few black characters but race is never brought up and the amount of black characters in a cast this size is well within reality. There is also a female character but again, it's only 1 and there have been plenty of female rangers so having 1 is not a stretch. She also is just a normal character, not the angry violent feminist overpowered type. Would definitely recommend this for action sci-fi fans.
