Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

The film prioritizes character and story over modern identity politics. Casting and character arcs focus on traditional storytelling, with the central themes centering around family, belief, and the magic of Christmas. There's no heavy-handed emphasis on identity over substance.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

'Miracle on 34th Street' largely upholds classic values, faith, family, and childlike innocence. Some might say there's a mild update with a single mother protagonist, but the film never undercuts tradition and portrays family and Christmas in a positive, nostalgic light.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

There's little evidence of reigning modern ideology. Santa, faith, and tradition are not mocked, alternative viewpoints aren't villainized, and the movie offers sincere portrayals of skepticism and belief. The film remains firmly in the camp of non-woke holiday fare.
