What We Think

Avengers: Infinity War largely avoids heavy-handed woke elements, instead prioritizing story and character development. While modern touches exist, the film doesn’t sacrifice narrative for ideology or run on ideological rails. A refreshingly non-woke blockbuster by today’s standards.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Mildly Woke

What is this?

Infinity War keeps its focus firmly on the story and established characters, with heroic traits and flaws present across the cast. Identity factors are present but not overtly forced or prioritized over substance, and most characters have developed personalities and arcs. Forced representation or unrealistic competence is minimal.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Mildly Woke

What is this?

Traditional themes like family, sacrifice, and morality play central roles. Masculinity and femininity are generally balanced and not unduly subverted. While modern sensibilities are present, they don't drastically undermine cultural foundations. There is little overt cultural revisionism.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Mildly Woke

What is this?

The film depicts a wide range of worldviews and moral dilemmas, particularly in Thanos’s philosophy and the heroes’ differing responses. Traditional values are represented without being reduced to caricatures. There’s no clear ideological uniformity.
