What We Think

Asterix and the Big Fight is refreshingly non-woke. It sticks to its roots without bending over backwards to accommodate 21st-century trends. Old-school charm, classic values, and zero forced messaging, what a concept!

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

The film follows the classic Asterix formula, prioritizing humor and adventure over any modern ideological themes. Character identities align with the original comic and are not driven by current identity politics. There’s no sign of casting decisions or plot alterations for forced representation or agenda-pushing.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

Traditional values such as friendship, cleverness, and national identity are celebrated. Masculinity, family, and village life are depicted positively and with a sense of nostalgia. The film doesn’t subvert traditional gender roles or rewrite any cultural or historical context to fit modern narratives.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

While the story is simple and doesn’t explore many ideological viewpoints, it avoids promoting any modern ideological monoculture. Differences among characters are played for laughs and camaraderie, not to make any grand social point. There’s no evidence of villainizing traditional perspectives.
