What We Think

Red Planet is a refreshingly non-woke sci-fi flick, focusing on its Mars mission story rather than ideological messaging. If you're tired of ham-fisted representation or culture war overtones, this one's a safe watch.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

Red Planet largely prioritizes its sci-fi plot and survival themes over contemporary identity politics. Casting feels organic to the story’s context, and characters are defined by their roles and motives, not by token representation. Any identity-related elements don’t override the core narrative.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

The film presents traditional heroism, respect for sacrifice, and cooperation among a mostly masculine, professional team. There is no heavy-handed critique of family, religion, or masculinity. The focus stays on exploration, teamwork, and problem-solving without unnecessary revisionism.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

Alternative perspectives aren’t villainized; there’s a range of personalities and motivations within the crew. Debates center around mission ethics and survival, not modern ideological disputes. The film doesn’t force a particular worldview beyond typical genre drama.
