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

Don 2 remains refreshingly non-woke, relying on good old-fashioned action, crime drama, and strong genre conventions without any overt social messaging or identity-driven storytelling.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

Don 2 is an action thriller centered on a male anti-hero, with casting and character development focused on traditional genre archetypes. It does not appear to prioritize identity over personality or skill, and the plot isn't sidetracked by ideology-driven elements.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

The film presents masculinity in a classic, unapologetic manner. Family, tradition, and religion are not major themes, nor are they undermined. The narrative doesn't attempt to rewrite cultural values or mock traditional norms; it stays apolitical and focused on entertainment.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

There’s no noticeable effort to villainize dissenting viewpoints or promote a single ideological worldview. The film is concerned more with personal ambition, power, and crime; any message about society or identity politics is absent or nonexistent.
