What We Think

Angel Eyes is refreshingly non-woke by contemporary standards, focusing on character and emotional arcs rather than modern identity politics. It's an old-school drama with genuine themes and little ideological agenda creeping in.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

Angel Eyes focuses on character-driven storytelling, not forced representation. Jennifer Lopez's role as a tough cop is believable within context, and the film avoids overemphasizing identity over character depth. Narrative choices feel organic and rooted in traditional dramatic tension.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

The film doesn't aggressively subvert gender roles or mock masculinity; instead, it explores trauma, human connection, and resilience. Family dynamics and morality are approached earnestly, without overt attempts to undermine tradition or culture.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

There’s no heavy-handed villainization of traditional viewpoints, nor is the film obsessed with promoting a single worldview. Differences in perspective are portrayed with nuance and sincerity, steering clear of modern ideological uniformity.
