Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

The film centers on a father's quest to save his children from a rare disease, focusing on perseverance, family, and hope. Casting is traditional, and character arcs are grounded and realistic. There's no apparent prioritization of identity over story, keeping the narrative strong and mostly ideology-free.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

Family, grit, and parental devotion are at the core of the story. Values like sacrifice and hard work are celebrated, and there's no subversion of traditional family or religious themes. It feels refreshingly non-woke in how it upholds these classical virtues.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

The film doesn't push a singular modern worldview. Differences in perspective between characters come from personality and motivation, not identity or political themes. Alternative views are respected, and no one is villainized just for being conventional or traditional.
