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

Police Academy: Mission to Moscow is about as unwoke as it gets, no forced representation, no subverting of social norms, just goofy cops and broad gags. If you’re looking for old-school, non-woke entertainment, this relic fits the bill perfectly.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

Police Academy: Mission to Moscow mostly maintains traditional storytelling, focusing on slapstick comedy and familiar recurring characters. If anything, it could be faulted for lack of narrative ambition, not for wokeness. Forced representation and identity-first casting are essentially absent.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

There's no significant undermining of cultural or traditional values. Masculinity, family, and authority are treated with good-natured ribbing, but it's all in the service of harmless humor, not ideological subversion.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

The film doesn't really present or mock competing ideologies. The Soviet setting is played for laughs instead of sincere debate or caricature of 'the other;' there's no woke messaging or demonization of dissenters.
