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

'Official Competition' is refreshingly non-woke by today's standards, focusing on satirical jabs at the film industry rather than modern identity politics or ideological preaching. Its worldview feels broad enough to keep most viewers out of the woke blast radius.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Mildly Woke

What is this?

'Official Competition' primarily satirizes the film industry and actor egos rather than pushing identity politics. Characters are shaped by their quirks and flaws rather than checkboxes. Forced representation is not a core focus, and the story remains about creative clashes, allowing narrative integrity to stay mostly intact.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

The film doesn't spend much time undermining religion, family, or traditional values. Its target is the world of high art and entertainment, making fun of pretension and celebrity more than any cultural foundations. There's no noticeable subversion of gender roles or historical revisionism.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Mildly Woke

What is this?

There's clear parody of industry types, but dissenting perspectives on art, traditional vs. avant-garde, are shown through character conflict. While progressive ideas about art get more screentime, the film is more interested in satire than enforcing an ideological monoculture.
