What We Think

Mindcage is refreshingly non-woke by modern Hollywood standards. It focuses on its thriller narrative instead of box-checking or lecturing the audience, delivering a story free of the usual ideological baggage.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

Mindcage largely sticks to its serial killer thriller roots, focusing on plot and detective work rather than shoehorning in identity politics or forced diversity casting. Characters appear chosen for their fit within the story, not to check boxes, and there are no obviously flawless, one-dimensional heroes.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

The film doesn’t fixate on undermining religion, family, or masculinity. If anything, it presents traditional values and personal redemption as important to the characters’ motivations. No heavy-handed revisionism or subversion is in play here.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

Dissenting perspectives on morality and justice play key roles in the story. No one worldview dominates, and alternative takes are given space, with tensions between faith, ethics, and law enforcement examined as part of the plot.
