What We Think

“Love the Coopers” is much more interested in holiday chaos than ideological sermons. It respects traditional values, gives its characters authentic struggles, and doesn’t preach. Not exactly “woke”, just your standard dysfunctional Christmas flick.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

“Love the Coopers” presents its characters as flawed, three-dimensional people, with the holiday chaos stemming more from relatable family dysfunction than ideological posturing. While there is some diversity in casting, it is not shoehorned in and doesn’t overwhelm the story’s focus on family dynamics.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Mildly Woke

What is this?

The film treats themes like family, forgiveness, and togetherness with respect. There’s no aggressive undermining of tradition, religion, or classic gender roles, if anything, it leans into these themes to drive its sentimental holiday narrative.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

Alternative perspectives aren’t mocked or villainized. Most characters represent fairly typical Americans coping with personal issues. There’s some nod to inclusive modern values, but not in a preachy or heavy-handed way, it still welcomes a broad audience.
