How woke is it?
The original had some diversity so it's not a problem, but is the cast obnoxiously diverse? Are there any openly gay homos? What about "The Message"?
For all the talk about wokeness - reviews suggest the black dude gave the best performance
shareDiversity in itself is not necessarily "woke" as the world is diverse, the US is as well and to portray anything else would be the dishonest move. The issue arises when casting is determined to inundate the audience with women as action stars or blacks as geniuses. Action females exist as do genius blacks, but every one of them? And white men are now suddenly devoid of anything worthwhile and cowardly at the same time? The people who have laid down their lives keeping us safe, fighting whatever political wars the PTB determine to be expedient. Soldiers- we know the US govt despises you and the public now shows their complete lack of appreciation for your sacrifice.
