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

A rare example of a modern film that's refreshingly non-woke. 'Coup de Chance' puts story and character first, sidestepping checklist activism almost entirely. Hollywood, take some notes.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

From what we see, 'Coup de Chance' remains focused on its actual narrative, themes of chance, infidelity, and fate, with characters built on personality and motives rather than identity checkboxes. There's no indication that ideology overtakes the plot or that casting choices are made primarily for representation points.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

The film doesn't seem interested in attacking religion, family, or traditional masculinity. Instead, it's far more preoccupied with existential musings and personal morality, more in tune with Woody Allen's longstanding themes than with any modern subversions.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

Alternative perspectives are present, with morally complex characters and pluralistic outlooks. No one is painted as a villain solely because they're 'traditional' or fail to espouse modern dogmas. The worldview on display is open and nuanced, not dogmatically modern.
