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

'Look Away' remains largely non-woke, focusing on psychological horror and family dysfunction with little in the way of modern ideological messaging. If you're tired of forced activism in movies, this one's refreshingly free of it.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

'Look Away' is centered on psychological horror and the dynamics of a troubled teenage girl. The story prioritizes internal struggle over overt social themes, and character roles are built on merit and plot requirements rather than forced identity representation.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

The film doesn't particularly attack religion, family, or masculinity, its focus remains on individual trauma rather than making social statements. If anything, the family dynamics illustrate dysfunction as a source of horror, not a platform for ideological messages.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

There’s little evidence of ideological monoculture here. Alternative views or traditional perspectives are not mocked or villainized; the narrative is wrapped up in the protagonist’s psychological journey, not culture wars.
