What We Think

A Perfect Plan mostly sidesteps modern 'woke' conventions, delivering a light romantic comedy based more on situational humor than heavy-handed messaging. If you’re looking for a non-woke, character-focused film, this one won’t set off your alarm bells.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

The film centers on a woman scheming to bypass her family's 'wedding curse' by marrying and divorcing a stranger before marrying her long-time partner. Casting and character development focus on personal quirks, not identity politics. The narrative remains intact and undistracted by forced diversity or heavy-handed modern themes.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Mildly Woke

What is this?

While the movie pokes a bit of fun at marriage superstitions, it doesn’t attack religion, tradition, or masculinity in any overt way. The story still revolves around love, commitment, and, if anything, highlights how family traditions, however odd, shape lives. There’s only light-hearted subversion here.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

There’s no sign of aggressive ideological messaging. The film sticks to classic rom-com territory; it isn’t pushing a one-sided worldview, nor does it villainize traditional values. Alternate views and playful conflict are present, keeping things refreshingly neutral.
