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

Stone Cold is about as non-woke as action movies come, brutal, untouched by modern ideological trends, and entirely rooted in its early '90s pedigree. This is straight-up, no-nonsense entertainment for those who prefer brawn over lectures.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

Stone Cold delivers a classic action movie experience, focusing on gritty characters, straightforward heroics, and practical stunts rather than identity-driven storytelling. There’s little evidence of emphasis on modern ideological representation or altering character traits based on politics.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

This film exudes old-school machismo, showcasing traditional depictions of masculinity, the flawed anti-hero, and the biker antagonist. There is no apparent subversion of family, religion, or morality, and it sticks with recognizable American cultural attitudes of its era.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

While Stone Cold isn't exactly a forum for debate, it doesn't push a uniform modern ideology or villainize traditional perspectives. The film keeps to standard 'good guys vs. bad guys' action tropes with no heavy-handed message.
