What We Think

‘Hit Man’ is witty and entertaining but wears its modern, progressive sensibilities on its sleeve. While not the wokest thing out there, it keeps traditional archetypes at arm’s length and rarely steps outside contemporary ideological territory.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Woke

What is this?

While 'Hit Man' largely keeps the focus on its quirky, fast-talking lead and maintains a tongue-in-cheek plot, there’s a noticeable emphasis on progressive gender dynamics and some identity-driven casting. The film flirts with themes popular in modern urban storytelling, occasionally trading depth for clever winks at social trends.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Hyper Woke

What is this?

Traditional masculinity is often subverted, with the protagonist’s character arc challenging archetypal male roles. Family and conventional relationships are portrayed as messy or outdated. The film places higher value on self-discovery, and elements of traditional morality take a backseat to modern, individualized ethics.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Hyper Woke

What is this?

The movie rarely presents alternative or traditional viewpoints in a sympathetic light. Instead, old-school attitudes are played for laughs or written off as relics of the past, with little genuine debate or pluralism among the cast.
