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

Fortress is refreshingly non-woke for a '90s sci-fi flick. It keeps its priorities straight, focusing on suspense and action rather than shoehorning in modern identity politics. Old-school genre fans can relax.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

Fortress largely keeps its focus on classic sci-fi action and survival, with characters developed through their choices and resilience rather than identity checklists. Casting and character arcs serve the tense plot rather than push ideology.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

Traditional family dynamics, morality, and even a bit of old-school heroism are present. Masculinity and femininity are treated as complementary, with no excess subversion or cultural revisionism at play.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

The film isn't really interested in lecturing; alternative views aren't mocked, and villainy is more about authoritarianism than one-sided politics. There’s no attempt at ideological conformity here, just dystopian sci-fi fun.
