A Good Year2006

In a free society the right to critique art is essential and protected speech. These reviews reflect personal opinions and not statements of fact.

What We Think

A Good Year is refreshingly non-woke, focusing on timeless themes rather than trendy ideology. Traditional values and good storytelling take priority, with very little of the woke baggage so common in films today.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

There is barely any emphasis on identity politics. Characters are developed around relationships, career struggles, and personal growth without forced diversity or highlighting modern ideological themes. The plot focuses on a man's journey of self-discovery, a true rarity these days.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

Family, tradition, and a sense of place take the spotlight. The importance of legacy and reconnecting with one's roots are embraced, not mocked or sidelined. Masculinity isn't pathologized, and there are no attempts to rewrite basic cultural assumptions.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

The film doesn't go out of its way to villainize traditional values or perspectives. Worldviews are depicted as complex rather than ideological. No finger-wagging morality lessons, and alternative viewpoints aren’t simply strawmen for modern values.
