What We Think

Nativity! is about as non-woke as you’ll find for a modern British family film. It prioritizes story, heart, and tradition over ideology, so even the most sensitive viewer can relax and enjoy the holiday cheer.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

The film keeps its narrative focused on the classic holiday, school-set story. Characters are developed based on quirks and relatable situations, not just identity traits. No overtly forced representation is present, and the story revolves around universal themes of redemption and community.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

Nativity! celebrates classic Christmas traditions, the value of family, and small-town spirit. Religion is handled with lighthearted reverence, and traditional values are not undermined for ideological statements. Masculinity, femininity, and family all get respectful, if comedic, treatment.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

The film doesn’t push a singular worldview, if anything, it’s a giant love letter to tradition and inclusion without lecturing. Dissenting perspectives are represented through quirky characters, not caricatures, with plenty of internal conflict and pluralism on display.
