Far Cry2008

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

In our view, 'Far Cry' is about as non-woke as it gets. It’s an old-school shoot-em-up, more interested in big guns and explosions than ticking any modern ideological boxes. Not high art, but definitely not high woke, either.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

The film focuses on a generic action plot rather than shoehorning in modern identity politics or forced diversity. Characters are chosen for their roles and not as vehicles for social commentary. It's more concerned with explosions than checklists.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

Traditional masculine archetypes and military themes are front and center, with no noticeable effort to undermine cultural norms or rewrite history for an ideological agenda. It sticks to familiar action movie territory without lecturing its audience.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

There’s little evidence of ideological grandstanding or a monocultural worldview being pushed. Any commentary is surface-level action banter, not an ideological statement. Alternative perspectives aren’t mocked or villainized, they’re just not really present.
