What We Think

Good Burger is about as non-woke as it gets, a zany, harmless comedy from a time when Hollywood still aimed to entertain everyone instead of lecturing them. Absolutely minimal wokeness on display.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

Good Burger is a classic 1990s comedy where character traits like race or gender are not emphasized over personality or story. The focus is on silly antics, friendship, and underdog perseverance, not identity. No forced representation or over-the-top flawless protagonists here. Narrative remains intact and unburdened by ideology.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

Nothing in Good Burger subverts cultural foundations, religion, or traditional masculinity. Family, work ethic, and friendship are all depicted positively, with no mocking of traditional values. The humor is harmless and avoids any modern 'reimagining' of cultural or historical norms.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

There's no villainization of traditional perspectives or overt ideological uniformity. The film operates in a pre-woke, light-hearted space where different worldviews aren't paraded around for messaging. It's just goofy fun with no preachiness or social agenda in sight.
