What We Think

Jurassic Park is practically the fossil opposite of ‘woke.’ Its priorities are thrilling science, timeless character moments, and classic movie fun, none of the ideological baggage audiences now expect as a given.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

Jurassic Park is a textbook case of letting the story and characters drive the action, not ideology. Characters are memorable because of their skills and personalities, not shoehorned identities. The cast reflects the early '90s Hollywood approach, no tokenism or forced box-checking here.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

The film doesn’t take shots at family, religion, or traditional values. In fact, it makes some gentle nods to the value of parental roles and responsibility. Masculinity isn’t pathologized; instead, it’s celebrated (with a healthy dose of suspense and running from dinosaurs).

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

Alternative worldviews aren’t mocked or villainized. Debate centers on science ethics and hubris, not on modern social issues. The film is refreshingly free of the ideological monoculture so common today, people can actually disagree without one side being painted as ‘evil.’
