Pha-Q woke's Reviews
Fictionalized and Woke
Loosely based and mostly fictionalized story about the beanie baby craze. Lots of out of place terms and language for the time periods depicted. It's not really even about beanie babies it's about hollywood feminism. Ty is portrayed as a complete idiot all the time and every single thing is stolen from the smart strong capable women around him.

No woke. Strange Movie
No woke that I saw. Good acting all around and a great performance by Hamm. It has some humorous moments but I wouldn't really call this a comedy. It's more of a look at office work space with someone with a mental disorder or high functioning autism. Definitely worth a watch but don't expect to be laughing out loud while watching it.

90's Action Throwback with No Woke
I didn't notice anything woke. This is typical of 90's action movies with passable VFX and decent action and acting. The story is nothing original and there are a lot of ridiculous implausible scenes that make no sense. If you can turn off your brain and enjoy old school action movies, it's ok for what it is.

Overhyped Terrible Film
Not really woke but there is some minor scenes. The sister is the strong one that saves her weaker brother on several occasions. These are minor scenes and can be overlooked. However this is a terrible movie with bad acting particularly by the child actors. The writing and dialog are horrible. Kids don't talk or act this way in these situations. There are multiple child abductions but yet no police presence at the school or parents picking kids up. The abductions are all in broad daylight in residential neighborhoods but nobody sees anything. The brother is living in the same small house and obsessed with the kidnappings but doesn't know anything is going on? The kid suddenly turns into MacGyver. The sister has a dream about the house and the police just drop everything and rush to her location and kick down the door? The ending confrontation is laughably absurd. Nothing is ever explained either. What's with the weird masks? What about the black balloons and magicians outfit? Why do ghosts call on the phone? Why does the sister have dreams of the future/past/present whatever is required? This isn't even really horror, it's a thriller at best. Skip this overhyped mess.

No woke, low budget horror
No woke here. Typical low budget horror for the time. Not great but not a bad way to pass the time if your a horror fan. Passable acting and story. VFX are about what you would expect for direct to video in the early 2000s.

Maybe a little woke
So there are a lot of 'white people' lines from the main black character as well as a 'mansplaining' line, however everything seems to be done for humorous effect and not preachy so not sure if it's really woke. Sort of Kill Bill meets early Guy Ritchie movie. Acting and story are all good and entertaining. The action does start to get over the top implausible toward the end and the finale VFX are a little sketchy but if you can get past that a pretty enjoyable action comedy.
