Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

While the film highlights Black culture, it does so through satire and parody, embracing character-driven humor instead of forcing identity themes or sacrificing narrative for ideology. The casting aligns with the genre and subject matter rather than box-checking for representation.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

Traditional values, such as family and masculinity, are playfully examined rather than ridiculed. The movie parodies blaxploitation tropes but doesn't actively undermine traditional structures or rewrite history through a modern lens.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

The film's humor spans multiple targets, including political and cultural figures, without enforcing a single modern viewpoint or villainizing traditional perspectives. It pokes fun equally, offering a relatively pluralistic approach for its time.
