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

‘Identity’ is the textbook case of ultra-woke cinema, prioritizing exhaustive box-ticking over believable storytelling, and rewriting tradition to fit a one-note ideological playbook. Traditional values need not apply.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Hyper Woke

What is this?

This film appears dedicated to checking every box for representation, often sidelining authentic character development. Diverse identities seem glued on rather than woven in, and several characters come across as one-dimensional archetypes whose traits are telegraphed more by identity than by compelling storytelling.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Hyper Woke

What is this?

Traditional family structures, religion, and masculinity are subtly undermined or satirized throughout, and the film seems intent on pushing contemporary values while depicting older norms as outdated or problematic. Cultural traditions are either reimagined or dismissed entirely, making the message feel heavy-handed.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Hyper Woke

What is this?

Dissenting views are painted in a rather cartoonish light, often villainous or pitiable, with almost no characters sincerely representing alternative worldviews. The narrative offers little pluralism, creating an echo chamber where only current progressive morals are deemed valid.
