What We Think

‘Center of My World’ checks practically all the modern, ‘woke cinema’ boxes: identity-focused narrative, disregard for tradition, and very little ideological diversity. If you're expecting a balanced exploration of perspectives, don't hold your breath.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Hyper Woke

What is this?

Much of the narrative revolves around the protagonist's sexuality and coming-of-age conflicts, with identity often foregrounded over broader character depth or plot development. Some viewers may interpret this as prioritizing ideology above story complexity.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Hyper Woke

What is this?

The film largely sidesteps traditional depictions of family, masculinity, and religion, instead presenting chosen family and alternative relationships as inherently superior or more authentic. This emphasis tends to downplay cultural traditions or norms.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Hyper Woke

What is this?

Alternative worldviews are mostly absent or flagged as hostile, with dissenting perspectives painted as obstacles, not positions worth engaging. There is little to no meaningful representation of truly diverse societal values.
