What We Think

'Bad Milo!' is a refreshingly non-woke comedy-horror. Its biggest agenda is making you laugh and cringe, not ticking diversity checkboxes. Narrative integrity is preserved, and there's next to no ideological grandstanding.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

'Bad Milo!' keeps its story comically straightforward, focusing on absurd horror rather than shoehorning in identity politics. Characters are quirky and flawed, but their backgrounds and identities aren't highlighted as political statements, for a change, the plot is about a literal butt demon, not social activism.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

Traditional values aren’t really the target here; the humor is mostly crude, bodily, and farcical. There's no major critique of religion, family, or masculinity, unless you count making office stress a monster. It’s irreverent, but not agenda-driven.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

There isn’t much ideological content at all, let alone a monoculture, satire and absurdity drive the film. No noticeable mockery of 'non-woke' views or heavy-handed messaging. The film’s main concern is gross-out laughs, not lecturing the audience.
