Save Yourselves!2020

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

"Save Yourselves!" is unmistakably steeped in modern urban progressive values, often at the expense of narrative and cultural balance. While it’s not the wokest film out there, its gentle mockery of tradition and ideological uniformity make it decidedly more woke than not.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Woke

What is this?

The film focuses on a millennial couple escaping technology, but their identities (urban, progressive, neurotic) end up driving much of the plot. Some viewers may feel that relationship quirks and social messages at times override genuine character arc and tension, trading substance for wry commentary.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Hyper Woke

What is this?

Traditional family, religion, and masculine roles are notably absent or gently mocked. The male lead's lack of conventional masculinity and inability to provide protection is often played for laughs, while old-fashioned worldviews are depicted as outmoded or irrelevant.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Hyper Woke

What is this?

Alternative perspectives to the film's urbane, progressive worldview are largely absent or gently lampooned. There's little sincere engagement with non-woke or traditional positions; instead, a uniform set of modern, urban values prevails across characters.
