Just the most unbearably bad movie ive tried to watch in so many years... I actually thought it might have had potential until about half way through, when they are in the forest with the """resistance""" (about 30 black, brown and asian kids taking on the entire hyper modern society single handedly), when the entire movie just disintegrates into a joke in an instant. Within about 5 minutes of them entering 'the smoke' you will be so embarrassed you even pressed play in the first place you will likely just turn off the movie and do something else. A movie written by woke 12 year olds, for woke 12 year olds.

This movie is absolutely horrendous.. and painful to watch. About half way through you just want it to end! It is the epitome of emotional manipulation. Everything in the story is built around these terribly choreographed "yeeaa!! moments".. but absolutely zero effort is put into making them actually feel authentic in any way. Instead they just feel so forced and creepy they make your skin crawl. I feel like ive been hacked, or otherwise violated by this decrepit excuse for a film.. it didnt feel like entertainment, it felt like a parasite or a virus trying to break through my defences and turn my brain into jelly. Save yourselves!!

The only thing even remotely rewarding about enduring the agonising hell of this film, is coming here afterwards like a broken man crawling into an AA meeting, to read all the 1 star reviews by my fellow humans. I feel a real connection now, like we just went through a war together and nearly lost everything but we somehow made it out the other side... Hopefully in time our wounds will fully heal and we will be whole again. Love and prayers xo

This movie deserves to be in a special category of its own. Twisted, perverted, idiotic and hateful - masquerading as 'art'. It was extremely difficult to watch, but i managed to hang on till the end. I dont think theres much point trying to dissect the movie in any great detail because its not written by a sane person. But i will say that the overall point of the movie seems to be a completely hateful, woke, psychotic attack on white men.. and a pure indulgence in the furthest extremes of this cult of hate. The 'plot' seems to be almost abandoned as soon as you start getting the slightest grasp of it and you realise that there is no plot, there is just a story fabricated to include as many ideologically psychopathic themes as possible. The plot is just a tool to express the cult of thought and that is why it makes utterly no sense whatsoever, and why all the characters are ridiculous and beyond detestable.

Woke as a JOKE... I got through about 20 minutes before the psychotic social engineering completely did my head in.

How this movie got such good reviews is beyond my comprehension... its so slow and boring, and what small points the movie was trying to make are just not nearly rewarding enough to justify the miserable journey to reach them. The characters are annoying and frustrating to watch because they're just so clueless, especially considering they supposedly have a lot of experience living in the woods. The entire experience just felt like i was watching 2 extremely mediocre people just failing at everything.. there was no real wisdom of any kind and what could have been a great commentary on the 'free worlds' lack of freedom to just go and live in the woods, just turns into a story about a guys inability to make any good decisions - even for the sake of his daughter. I gave it 2 stars instead of 1 because the acting wasnt bad.

A hateful abomination and annihilation of another beloved franchise produced by a group of people that should be blacklisted from the film & tv industry for this act alone. The only reason you should watch it is in preparation for writing a series of letters to request the instant cancellation of all involved in its making. Sickening twisted ideology...

This was extremely difficult to watch.. and pretend it was just an entertaining movie / story, not a woke femenist revision of a classic story. It is immediately apparent that this film intends to serve a political purpose, and i dont mean as an inspiration to women or orherwise.. i mean as an argument to create animosity between genders. After 10 minutes it becones completely predictable in this sense and you spend the rest of the film just counting the examples of women being unrealistically portrayed as heroins at the expense of the men in this film.

Im not sure if this will help anyone, but as someone who naturally sees 'God worship' religion more as anti-faith psychological super virus, and religious people as afflicted victims.. the movie seemed to perfectly portray this, though im really not sure if that was the intention. I see in this movie the severe psychological and emotional struggles of what appear to be very sick and desperate people, im just not sure if its just me that can see it, or if others see some sort of righteousness or respect in this torturous self immolation.

Ill expand on the rest of the critiques here by adding that from a male perspective at least, the female characters in this movie are unbearable.. if we are supposed to believe the husband is an awful person and the sole culprit in their marriage, why not make the wife a little easier to stomach!? I really struggled to understand who the antagonist was between them throughout the movie, but im sure it was supposed to be husband??
