Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

The film focuses on a traditional narrative centered around talent, personal struggle, and romance, rather than shoehorning identity politics or artificially diverse casting. Characters grow based on their choices, not on external demographic factors, which keeps the story grounded and relatable without forced representation.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

In our view, the film respects classic values like hard work, love, and family bonds, without mocking or undermining traditional masculinity or religious themes. Cultural traditions and realistic depictions of relationships are present and not heavily tampered with by modern ideology.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

Alternative viewpoints aren’t villainized or exaggerated, and the film doesn’t impose a single ideological worldview on its characters. Dialogue and character motivations feel authentic, with a genuine diversity of perspectives rather than an echo chamber of approved opinions.
