What We Think

'Delivery Man' is refreshingly non-woke by today’s standards, focusing on relatable themes and personal responsibility without identity politics crowding out the story. If you’re tired of checklists and lectures, this one’s for you.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

'Delivery Man' sticks to its comedic roots, focusing on a male protagonist navigating personal responsibility. There's minimal emphasis on identity politics, and most characters are defined by personality and circumstance, not just demographic boxes. Forced representation is not a significant feature here.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

The film generally upholds traditional themes like family, fatherhood, and personal growth. Masculinity is not vilified, and the narrative explores the value of paternal responsibility, if through a comedic lens. There is no major undermining or revisionist take on cultural or religious traditions.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

Alternative worldviews are not demonized. Characters with traditional perspectives (like family values) are given fair treatment and even celebrated. There's genuine conflict and nuance (well, as much as you'd expect in a comedy.) Modern ideology is not forced on every character or subplot.
