What We Think

For all its notoriety, 'Megan Is Missing' is the opposite of a woke parade. If you’re allergic to modern identity politics in film, there’s really nothing here to offend.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

The film’s focus is on the dangers of internet predators rather than on pushing any particular ideological agenda. Characters are flawed, human, and driven by plot needs rather than identity politics. Forced representation or obvious ideological lecturing is absent.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

Traditional family and morality concerns are actually highlighted, with the story serving as a kind of cautionary tale against parental neglect and reckless behavior. There’s no overt subversion of masculinity, gender roles, or targeted cultural revisionism.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

The film doesn’t take jabs at alternative worldviews, nor does it paint traditional concerns as villainous. Instead, it employs a pretty standard anti-predator message without mocking conventional values or pushing ideological sameness.
