What We Think

Steve Jobs avoids modern 'woke' storytelling pitfalls, focusing on real-life events and complex characters instead of ideology. No identity-first casting, forced representation, or sermonizing here, just an old-school character study.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

The film is focused on Steve Jobs as an individual, delving into his personality, flaws, and leadership. Identity characteristics are irrelevant to the casting or story. The narrative is more about character study than checking any boxes. Nothing feels forced or out of place on the representation front.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

The movie doesn't denigrate or undermine traditional values such as family or ambition. If anything, it explores the complexities of fatherhood and personal legacy, even if Jobs is depicted as a flawed parent. There's no revisionist take on history or push to rewrite cultural norms; it follows actual events.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

There is no overt ideological messaging. The story is about business, innovation, and personal conflict. Alternative worldviews aren't caricatured; the main debates are about leadership and relationships, not ideology. The film's universe isn't pushing any particular social doctrine.
