Logan's Run1976

In a free society the right to critique art is essential and protected speech. These reviews reflect personal opinions and not statements of fact.

What We Think

Logan's Run is refreshingly non-woke by today’s standards, with its focus on story, nuanced worldview, and lack of forced modern identity politics. A relic from when dystopian sci-fi was about themes, not box-ticking.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

Logan's Run stays focused on a dystopian story rather than checking identity boxes. Casting and character arcs are driven by the narrative, not by modern representation checklists. The film puts character motivations and world-building at the forefront without shoehorning in contemporary ideological priorities.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Mildly Woke

What is this?

While the film critiques certain controlling social structures, it doesn’t attack traditional institutions like family, religion, or masculinity. Instead, it explores the consequences of utopian conformity and loss of individualism, more classical than 'woke' in its critique.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

The movie allows for a variety of worldviews: characters challenge and debate the system, and individuals wrestle with the morality of their choices. There’s no modern ideological echo chamber here, just old-school sci-fi explorations.
