Question 1

Is Shelter woke?

Accepted Answer

Shelter has a woke score of 22/100, which means it is not especially woke compared with higher-scoring titles. Standard Jason Statham action thriller: grizzled ex-assassin in hiding on a remote Scottish island rescues a young girl from a storm, then fights off his corrupt MI6 past to protect her. No identity swaps, no lectures on race/gender/power, no forced agenda. Minor modern Hollywood casting in supporting MI6 roles (Black actress Naomi Ackie as the competent new agency head, diverse team) plus generic surveillance-state corruption plot. Everything else is pure lone-wolf dad mode and shootouts. Background stuff at most.
