What We Think

Centurion is a refreshingly non-woke historical action film. No agenda-driven tinkering or virtue signaling; just brutal action and old-school storytelling. If you’re tired of Hollywood’s quota systems and ideological groupthink, this film is a welcome palate cleanser.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

Centurion sticks to a gritty, straightforward narrative focused on Roman soldiers fighting for survival. Casting and characterization seem to prioritize story and historical setting over identity politics. Characters’ strengths and flaws are generally earned through believable experience rather than box-checking.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

The film showcases masculinity, loyalty, honor, and survival instincts without satirizing or undermining them. While there are strong female characters, they are largely contextualized within the world’s brutal realities, not as aspirational icons or ideological statements.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

The movie avoids heavy-handed messages or preaching, allowing various perspectives from Romans and Picts. It doesn’t villainize traditional values, if anything, it revels in barbaric grit. There’s little preaching or mockery of alternative or traditional viewpoints.
