OMG 22023

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

OMG 2 walks the line between modernizing discussion around taboo topics and respecting traditional values. It’s more progressive than most Bollywood fare but avoids the extreme ends of the woke scale. Not an activist lecture, but definitely a 'modern update.'

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Woke

What is this?

OMG 2 largely keeps its narrative focused and character-driven, occasionally introducing topical themes about sexuality in schools. While it brings up modern issues, there isn’t a heavy-handed sacrifice of story for ideology, keeping much of the film grounded in its comedic-drama roots.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Woke

What is this?

The film challenges traditional taboos around sex education but still maintains a respectful dialogue with religion and family. Hindu faith is depicted mostly positively, though some may view raising such topics as bending old norms to modern sensibilities.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Woke

What is this?

OMG 2 presents a fairly open discussion of sexual health and education. While it argues for more liberal approaches, it depicts various perspectives, not vilifying tradition outright. However, dissent isn’t given a particularly strong or heroic voice either.
