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

Fresh delivers its social commentary with all the subtlety of a sledgehammer, prioritizing woke themes about gender and modern dating over balanced storytelling. Old-fashioned values don’t stand a chance here.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Woke

What is this?

Fresh puts significant emphasis on gender dynamics, often prioritizing social commentary over organic storytelling. Characters are clearly constructed to showcase modern identity issues, and at times, this sidesteps deeper development or nuanced motivations, as the movie leans into genre tropes with an ideological spin.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Hyper Woke

What is this?

The film subverts traditional dating, gender roles, and portrays masculinity, especially male desire, as something insidious and predatory. Family, faith, and classic moral anchors are given little relevance or are non-existent, replaced with modern commentary on gender and consumption.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Hyper Woke

What is this?

Alternative viewpoints are almost non-existent or treated with skepticism. The film positions modern feminist perspectives as default, and characters who challenge these assumptions are either villainous or caricatured. There is little room for competing worldviews, making the ideological winds all blow from one direction.
