Humane is positively dripping with populist woke agenda's, as touted by mainstream politics and the mainstream media.

Diversity, climate alarmism, married up to clumsy attempts to discredit those who ask awkward, legitimate questions, is absolutely front and centre. How dare anyone suggest Asia is responsible for a decent portion of climate change, such as it is (actually coal powered energy plants, just one example, in places like China, are prolific). That's racism!!! (no its a reasoned argument but feel free to rant on). You get the idea.

Anyway, once the work whinge feast blows over, this torrid affair quickly descends into a "kill or be killed", basic horror survival "experience" that's driven predominantly by empty exposition.

Attempts at black humour fall flat too but then so much else is awful, that's to be expected.

In summary, agenda ridden nonsense that vaguely resembles a horror flick. The only saving grace being decent acting but that's nowhere near enough to fix whats wrong here.
