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

'Futurama: Bender's Game' is mostly a non-woke, tongue-in-cheek fantasy parody with minimal focus on social or identity-based themes. Traditional foundations are gently spoofed, not undermined. Nothing to see here for hardcore ideology hounds.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

The film is primarily comedic, with a story driven by parodying fantasy tropes rather than identity politics. Characters remain consistent with their personalities established in the series. Forced representation and identity-based casting are virtually absent; the main cast stays true to their original incarnations. Any nods to modern themes are negligible and played for laughs rather than to make a statement.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

Traditional roles, religion, and culture are generally played for comedy rather than being explicitly undermined. The movie pokes fun at various tropes (like fantasy quests and gaming), but does not show a clear agenda to subvert family, masculinity, or religion. Some gentle satire of cultural foundations is present, but nothing egregiously anti-traditional.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

The film satirizes various social groups without obvious bias and mocks both traditional and progressive viewpoints equally. Alternative perspectives are used for comedic effect rather than being outright villainized or erased. The story inhabits a broadly irreverent space rather than any particular ideological lane.
