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

Epic keeps its focus on fun and fantasy, not social lecturing. It’s refreshingly non-woke by modern standards, making it suitable for audiences wanting entertainment over activism.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

Epic mostly prioritizes its fantasy adventure over forced messaging. Characters are defined more by personality and relationships than by identity markers. There is some focus on female empowerment in the main character, but it's not heavy-handed or at the expense of the story.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Mildly Woke

What is this?

Traditional family dynamics play a sizable role, and masculinity isn't demonized. There’s a mild subversion with the heroine as the main protagonist, but this feels organic rather than an ideological statement. The film leaves religious or overtly moral themes untouched.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

The story doesn't villainize traditional perspectives or push modern ideological uniformity. There is a general family-friendly pluralism, and no real caricaturing or mocking of non-progressive views.
