Great action movie
This is a great action sci-fi movie made before all the studios decided to go super woke. Some of the special effects are somewhat dated, but it is well made up for with the great performances provided by the cast.

Great movie for the kids, not woke
I've seen this movie several times, as it's a fav in our house. Cute story that has some laughs for the adults, while being fast paced and entertaining for the young ones.
No wokeness detected!

Classic film that has no wokeness
Films like this spit in the face of wokeness. It is a classic in every sense, with some of the finest humor I've ever experienced.
You owe it to yourself to see this movie!

Great action film without the wokeness!
I really enjoyed this film! It was a great sequel filled with some really amazing action. I was impressed with the realism portrayed in the film, you can tell they were dedicated to using real aircraft and committed themselves to not doing over the top or unrealistic scenarios.
The love interest in the plot sort of threw me, I wasn't really vested in the relationship between Maverick and Penny. However, I thought the tension between Maverick and "Rooster" was well portrayed.
Overall, giving this a 4/5
Wokeness is 0/5

Woke, but I can't get enough
This movie's entire premise is based on woke environmentalism. But for whatever reason, I can't get enough of it. This movie is on rotation for me at least once or twice a year.
Even woke movies can have a great story and chemistry between the actors. The environmental disasters are completely over the top and embellished, which is part of what makes it so great.
It gets a 4/5 overall from me, and 2/5 for wokeness.

Vital film on gender insanity
This documentary is a vital piece that perfectly highlights the utter nonsense that is gender ideology. I laughed. I cried.
Seriously, every parent that cares for their child needs to see this toxicity exposed for what it really is.
Great job Matt Walsh and Daily Wire, we need more hard hitting documentaries like this.

A different take for a batman film
I really enjoyed this take/approach to a batman film. Robert Pattinson did a surprisingly good job in this movie. There were a couple scenes where my wife said "Does he have to be shirtless for this montage?" to which I replied "They needed to prove he doesn't sparkle anymore."
I thought the cast did a great job, acting was top notch. Cinematography was also very well done. The action sequences weren't over the top like a typical action film. I loved this films approach to Batman's gear and vehicles.. more ad hoc feeling, especially the bat mobile.
Now to the wokeness. My opinion was a little tainted going into the film, however, there were only a couple moments of blatant wokeness. One in particular is the one everyone has sort of brought up, where Zoe Kravitz delivers the line about Gotham being run by a bunch of "white privileged assholes." I felt that line was unwarranted, because corruption transcends race (if you need examples, look at all of human history).
Overall, we really enjoyed the film, 5/5 for originality and execution.
Wokeness, gets a 2/5 for the blatant dig that was totally not needed to advance the plot or complete the arch of the story. (We don't care that you hate white people, just tell your batman story)

Loved this improv gem
I was very pleasantly surprised at this show. Murderville isn't your typical murder mystery show, because the guest star doesn't have a script and they have to just make up their part along with the regular cast on the show.
So they use this to create some truly hilarious moments that had me raising up out of my seat with laughter. I hope they do another season of the show, I truly enjoy Improv comedy, especially when it's executed so well.
No wokeness detected, 0/5.
Overall giving it 5/5

Funny, but laced with wokeness
This movie has some great laughs, and overall it was enjoyable.
But it was flooded with woke moments all throughout. Most of the wokeness centered around homosexuality. There was a joke about the whole "pronoun/preference" thing, but it seemed more like a disingenuous virtue signal.. because you know, we can't just ask a girl is there is some boy she likes, we have to include the 80 other genders that her love interest could identify as.
3/5 for wokeness, the only reason it's not higher is because the wokeness wasn't preachy.
3/5 overall, was a decent story, shot well, and had some very cringy/hilarious scenes.. the parts with crab man had be rolling.

Not a bad rom com, but has a side of woke
We love a good rom com. Love Hard delivers well in this category! The story was engaging, the acting was done well, there were some good laughs throughout with some genuine tender moments between the main characters that made the progression of their relationship believable.
My only gripe is that the main character was pretty woke herself.. examples included trashing "baby it's cold outside" which is a classic #metoo stance. Others revolved around hating "toxic masculinity." The alternate love interest who was "hot" was into all the toxic "man stuff" that she found repulsive. Eating meat, rock climbing, hunting.. She was compromising her woke pedestal to settle for the hot guy with no "character" and needed to realize she should be with the more sensitive, less masculine guy.
It wasn't enough to spoil the film because it wasn't presented in a preachy way, more like she just realized she shouldn't compromise who she is to be with the wrong person.
Overall, I'm giving it a 4/5, because it was an enjoyable movie that kept me interested and engaged
In wokeness, it gets a 2/5 for all the "baby it's cold outside" hate.
