What We Think

Assassination Nation is a showcase in over-the-top wokeness, sacrificing narrative and depth to hammer home its identity politics. It leaves little room for nuance or genuine debate, making it a prime example of style over substance in today's woke cinema landscape.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Hyper Woke

What is this?

Assassination Nation leans hard into identity-driven casting and themes. Characters often seem crafted for maximal diversity and ideological signaling rather than nuanced development. Heavy-handed focus on gender, sexuality, and victimhood frequently overshadows organic character arcs or plot coherence.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Hyper Woke

What is this?

Traditional values, masculinity, and even the notion of morality are frequently lampooned or depicted as dangerous relics. The film aggressively subverts gender roles and presents institutions like family and morality in a negative, outdated light.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Hyper Woke

What is this?

Alternative perspectives, especially non-woke or traditional voices, are portrayed as villainous, ignorant, or outright absurd. The film avoids honest engagement with dissent and presents a uniform set of modern ideological assumptions with very little internal debate.
