Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

The film appears to focus on the personal journey and growth of a Ukrainian sniper, prioritizing character over modern identity checklists. Casting and plot center on realism and the protagonist’s experience, not on forced diversity or ideological talking points.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

Family, patriotism, faith, and national pride are depicted respectfully and as sources of strength. Traditional masculinity and the defense of homeland are central themes, with no sign of intentional subversion of cultural norms or rewriting history to fit modern trends.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

While the film clearly sides with Ukraine, it does not seem to push broader social ideology or villainize traditional perspectives outside the wartime context. Alternative worldviews within its universe are minimally explored, but the focus is on survival and duty, not identity politics.
