Jason Bourne (2016) mostly sidesteps modern woke trends. If you’re tired of Hollywood’s ideological posturing and just want classic action, this film is a breath of non-woke air.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

Jason Bourne sticks to traditional action-thriller storytelling. There’s no noticeable emphasis on identity politics, and casting choices appear driven by plot needs rather than forced diversity. Characters’ skills and backgrounds serve the narrative, not an ideology.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

The film avoids overt critiques of family, religion, or masculinity. Jason is portrayed as a traditionally masculine hero, and the story doesn’t undermine pillars like morality or patriotism. There’s little subversion of gender roles outside typical action tropes.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Mildly Woke

What is this?

While the film does follow the standard ‘government bad’ motif, dissenting worldviews aren’t demonized, nor does it heavily push a singular moral message about modern identity politics. Most characters behave plausibly without ideological monologues.
