Utter WOKE garbage.

I actually didn't pay it that much attention. But when you put it like that I can see it now.

Why would you have any faith in something directed by Snyder? I mean, honestly…how does this man still have a career at all? He hasn’t made a single compelling film in almost twenty years. He would’ve been fine directing music videos or IPod commercials, but that’s it.

"A bunch of white dudes dressed as Nazis terrorizing"

Sounds like another day in the USA.

Yeah, I noticed that as well. It wasn't my chief gripe with the movie. Primarily, I think it's just an unoriginal film -- basically another remake of The Seven Samurai. The fundamental problem with that concept is that in The Seven Samurai, or The Magnificent Seven (the first American remake, set in the old west instead of Japan), the bad guys were a band of brigands. Recruiting a handful of the best warriors around to oppose a bandit gang isn't too far beyond the realm of plausibility, but in this movie the bad guys are an interstellar empire with a huge industrial war machine and resources of multiple worlds to draw on. Basically, it's like you're a little Polish village in September of 1939, and you go out and hire a handful of expert fighters to stop the oncoming Nazi juggernaut. With small arms and even swords no less.

Yeah, that's not gonna work. That's not how you fight a threat like that.

That fundamental flaw made me unable to suspend disbelief and enjoy the movie.

But I did notice that the bad guys are all Germanic-looking white people. They're all evil and brutal as fuck. The one, single Motherworld soldier who tries to stop them from gang-raping a village girl, is, of course, the only non-white one in the group. The "Black Mountain Rebels" the heroes recruit are multiethnic, the first one who steps up to support Bloodaxe in joining the fight is an androgynous female (presumably LGBTQ+), they're all warpainted like "indigenous peoples."

There are no overt woke anti-Western declarations, but the movie sure is hinting at it rather unsubtly.

I did think Sofia Boutella was hot though.

It is Netflix what else did you expect?

It has to be pretty bad when even Kathleen Kennedy turned it down for a Star Wars setting. But then again, it's doing almost the same thing as her crap films, so that might also have been a reason for her turning down the script.

it was shitty for a lot of reasons

On a woke rating level from 1-5, it sounds like a 3 or 4.
