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

Get Out is clever but extremely woke by any metric, it uses horror to push a very singular perspective, sidelining narrative subtlety and presenting traditional culture as fundamentally suspect.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Hyper Woke

What is this?

The film places race and identity front and center, with narrative tension almost entirely revolving around these themes. In our view, this emphasis sometimes comes at the expense of more nuanced character arcs, making social commentary the star rather than organic storytelling.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Hyper Woke

What is this?

Traditional family structures and suburban culture are portrayed as predatory and sinister under the surface. Masculinity is often undermined, and long-standing values are recast through a highly critical, modern lens, which may feel revisionist to some viewers.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Hyper Woke

What is this?

Alternative worldviews are largely absent or villainized. The film presents dissenting opinions mainly through exaggerated antagonists, leaving little space for plurality or healthy debate.
