Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

The film primarily focuses on telling a story grounded in history, with its characterizations and casting reflecting the era and actual figures. In our view, identity traits are not the central focus and seem more authentic than agenda-driven. There is little evidence of forcing representation or de-emphasizing merit.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Mildly Woke

What is this?

While the film critiques aspects of U.S. policy toward Native Americans, it generally does so with nuance and respect for tradition. It does not mock traditional masculinity, family, or religion, but rather shows the complexities and values within both Native and American cultural frameworks.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Mildly Woke

What is this?

The film does question interventionist policies and showcases the conflict between cultures, but it avoids demonizing one side entirely. There are sympathetic characters on multiple sides, offering a variety of perspectives rather than strict ideological uniformity.
