Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

Léon: The Professional is all about gritty character work and genuine storytelling. Characters are developed based on skill, circumstance, and personality, not identity box-ticking. No forced representation or identity politics hijacking the narrative here.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

If anything, the film’s edgy themes probe the darker sides of human nature, but they don’t mock or undermine traditional family, religion, or masculinity. The film leaves moral complexity up to the audience, steering clear of agenda-driven revisionism.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

There’s no parade of ideological talking points, and there's room for moral ambiguity and different worldviews. The film doesn’t caricature dissenting characters; everyone operates in shades of gray.
