What We Think

“Last Seen Alive” is about as non-woke as 2022 thrillers get. It’s an old-school, straightforward missing-person action flick with a strong focus on grit, family, and classic heroism, free of ideological baggage.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

The film sticks firmly to a traditional action-thriller formula with a male protagonist desperately searching for his missing wife. Character traits are driven by the plot rather than identity politics, with no forced representation or overt focus on identity.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

Themes of marriage, masculinity, and determination are central, and traditional family values are treated earnestly. The man is proactive, and the family unit's importance is repeatedly highlighted, with virtually no subversion or satirical treatment of these foundations.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

Alternative perspectives aren’t mocked or villainized, the film keeps its scope personal and suspenseful, rather than ideological. There's no prominent presence of one-sided lecturing or groupthink about social or political issues.
