What We Think

Piranha II: The Spawning is about flying killer fish, not progressive politics. If you’re looking to avoid woke media, this fishy fiasco is safe waters. The only agenda here is dumb fun.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

Piranha II: The Spawning is a schlocky B-movie with no evidence of narrative compromise for woke ideology. The film doesn’t push identity politics; its characters are flat, but not for political reasons. Any lack of depth stems from the genre and budget, not forced representation.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

There’s zero agenda to undermine cultural foundations. Religion, family, masculinity, and morality aren’t subverted or especially highlighted, they're mostly irrelevant to the fish mayhem. No evidence of intentionally subverting traditional values, just classic '80s horror chaos.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

No ideological monoculture here. If anything, ideology is absent. The only real villain is the flying piranha, not some caricature of traditional values. The film is blissfully uninterested in political messaging or worldviews.
