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

"North" leans more into absurd satire than any recognizable woke messaging. While it jokes about families and diverse cultures, its aim is broad comedy rather than ideological subversion. A rare example of a non-woke mainstream '90s film.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

"North" is primarily concerned with satire and comedic exaggeration rather than ideological agendas. The casting choices and storylines are more about absurdity than forced identity representation, with few signs of narrative being sacrificed for ideology.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

While the film pokes fun at family dynamics and cultural quirks, it does so in a cartoonish, broad fashion rather than as a pointed critique of religion, masculinity, or tradition. There's little evidence of an intent to undermine cultural foundations in a woke fashion.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

The film mainly lampoons everyone equally through stereotypical jokes. Dissenting perspectives aren't villainized; they're just played for slapstick laughs. There is no clear push for widespread ideological alignment among its characters.
