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

Cuties checks nearly every box on the woke checklist: narrative integrity takes a back seat to messaging, tradition is undermined in favor of modern values, and dissenting worldviews are reduced to unflattering caricatures. Consider this one highly woke.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Hyper Woke

What is this?

The film’s focus on themes of identity and empowerment appears to overshadow organic character development and often feels more interested in making a statement than telling an authentic coming-of-age story. Representation seems prioritized for its own sake over nuanced storytelling.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Hyper Woke

What is this?

Traditional family values and religious norms are depicted as outdated obstacles to female expression and ‘freedom.’ Masculinity receives little fair treatment, and the tension between Western cultural norms and immigrant heritage is shown with a strong modernist slant.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Hyper Woke

What is this?

Alternative perspectives, especially those aligned with traditional or conservative worldviews, are largely sidelined or shown as inflexible barriers. There’s little room for respectful discussion or genuine pluralism in the film’s narrative.
