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

'Anger Management' is about as non-woke as comedies get these days. It's silly, irreverent, and doesn’t care about ticking identity boxes. If you want old-school laughs without social engineering, this delivers.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

The film focuses on humor, character quirks, and over-the-top situations, not identity politics or ideological messaging. Characters are cast for comedic chemistry and plot requirements, not primarily for their demographic traits. The story centers on personal growth rather than social commentary.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

Traditional themes like masculinity, friendship, and family are played for laughs but not subverted with a modern axe to grind. The film pokes fun at maleness and therapy culture in a non-preachy, broad comedy style. There's no sense that traditional values are being systematically undermined.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

Alternative viewpoints are teased for comic effect but not villainized. The film doesn’t push a narrow ideology and instead relies on universal, if sometimes crude, humor. No particular modern dogma or worldview dominates the narrative.
