Just finished it. Surprised everyone's missed the thinly veiled idpol. The movie starts off when Khandaq, a free black nation (also the only free nation at the time) is conquered by light skinned invaders - who enslave all the dark skinned Khandaquians. Then later it's conquered by Interpol, who are seemingly all white except for the one guy who becomes Satan 2.0. There is the obligatory race swapped Ginger, Cyclone. And the good guys, the Justice Society, are portrayed with overtones of colonialism. This movie is just as woke as all the other ones.
I think people are getting so used to woke politics in entertainment that anything outside of a 10 minute monologue from the lead about how all white/men/straight people are evil just flys under the radar for them. The messaging has been in literally everything for the last ten years, and if all you watch is new stuff, it just becomes the baseline. If you watch older movies and tv for a while (do it, it's all so much better written and acted) it will stick out like a big, red flag when you watch anything recent.
As far as the rest of the movie, meh. It's bog standard capeshit, with predictable lines and plotting. The acting was ok, with both Hawkman's & Doctor Fate's actors being above average (it's Pierce Brosnan, he could phone it in and still be good). The fight scenes were good and the CGI wasn't crap, but it was all CGI. Overall, it was an ok 90 minutes, but not worth a second watch. Probably not worth a first watch either.
