A Low Down Dirty Shame1994

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

As a mid-90s action-comedy, 'A Low Down Dirty Shame' is refreshingly non-woke by today's standards. The story plays things straight, with character flaws, natural representation, and no obvious agenda-pushing. Enjoyably retro and unselfconscious.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

The story focuses on character-driven action and comedy, with little evidence that race, gender, or sexuality are depicted in a way that overpowers narrative merit. Characters are flawed and face real consequences, and representation feels organic to the story's genre and era.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

There is no significant undermining of religion, family, masculinity, or traditional values. Masculinity is actually celebrated through the protagonist's traits, and there is no overt subversion of cultural traditions or revisionism present.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

The film features a diversity of personalities and motivations without promoting a singular ideological worldview. Dissenting or traditional perspectives aren't mocked, and the comedic elements are not centered on ideological caricatures.
