Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

"Awake" (2007) is a psychological thriller focused on medical malpractice and personal betrayal. The story doesn’t emphasize identity politics or force diverse representation; instead, it builds its conflict around character flaws and suspense. There’s little evidence that narrative integrity is compromised by ideology.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

The film doesn’t go out of its way to subvert traditional gender roles or attack values like family, religion, or masculinity. Its drama centers on personal relationships and trust rather than attacking cultural foundations. There’s minimal cultural revisionism under the surface.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

This story puts character-driven suspense and moral ambiguity above modern ideological messaging. It doesn’t portray dissenting perspectives as caricatures, nor does it present political or identity monologues instead of dialogue, so it scores very low on ideological monoculture.
