Heropanti 22022

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

Heropanti 2 is an unapologetically traditional action entertainer, refreshingly lacking in modern 'woke' trends. It’s more invested in parkour and dance numbers than forcing social lectures. Non-woke viewers can relax: you’ll barely find an agenda here.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

Heropanti 2 sticks to a classic Bollywood action formula, focusing on spectacle and traditional heroics rather than shoehorning in identity-driven messaging. Characters are cast and written to fit established archetypes, with no heavy-handed emphasis on diversity for diversity’s sake.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

The film largely upholds conventional notions of heroism, masculinity, and family relationships. There’s some flashy style and modern trappings, but it refrains from mocking or undermining traditional cultural or family values.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

There’s minimal political messaging, and the film doesn’t take aim at traditional views or present them as villainous caricatures. If anything, it’s an old-school crowd-pleaser aiming for mass appeal, not ideological messaging.
