In a free society the right to critique art is essential and protected speech. These reviews reflect personal opinions and not statements of fact.

What We Think

'Charlie' is refreshingly non-woke. It puts imagination above lecturing and focuses on personal journeys rather than contemporary identity politics. If you’re tired of soapboxing in cinema, this one’s a breath of fresh air.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

'Charlie' stays focused on storytelling and character development rather than ticking identity checkboxes. The plot follows a whimsical lead and his impact on others, with diverse personalities rooted in the narrative, not shoehorned for ideological reasons.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

The film neither aggressively subverts cultural norms nor mocks traditional values. Its themes are more existential and personal, rather than targeting religion, family, or traditional roles. It respects individuality but isn't out to rewrite heritage.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

There’s no heavy-handed ideological push; characters come from various backgrounds and their perspectives genuinely differ. Alternative or traditional views are not vilified, caricatured, or erased, debate and quest are part of the journey.
