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

Mammoth is not a woke manifesto, but it leans into globalist guilt and Western self-critique enough to edge into woke territory. Fortunately, it usually resists turning its characters into ideological mouthpieces or caricatures.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Mildly Woke

What is this?

While 'Mammoth' touches on hot-button topics like globalization and class disparity, it generally avoids shoehorning characters into ideology-driven molds. Characters’ decisions stem more from realistic, personal motivations than overt identity politics, lending the story a fair amount of integrity.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Woke

What is this?

The film explores critiques of Western consumerism and questions traditional family roles, though not in a way that outright mocks or demonizes them. Some may find its cultural introspection a bit heavy-handed, but it doesn’t take potshots at religion or classic masculinity.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Woke

What is this?

There’s a distinct Western guilt and globalist moral tone throughout, but alternative viewpoints occasionally surface, such as the Filipino caregiver’s narrative. Still, it’s clear which worldview gets center stage, with limited exploration of more traditional values.
