The Coldest Game2019

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

A rare, refreshing break from the prevailing Hollywood trends, The Coldest Game is more about espionage and suspense than box-ticking. Very low woke level, almost a vintage throwback in that regard.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

The film keeps its focus on plot and character rather than fixating on contemporary identity politics. Casting choices and character development are based on skill and narrative fit rather than current-year diversity checklists. There are no glaring examples of forced representation or overpowered flawless characters.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

Themes of patriotism, sacrifice, and Cold War values are central. Traditional gender roles and moral tensions are depicted without mockery or subversion. There's none of that standard Hollywood undermining of classic cultural foundations here.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

The film avoids overt ideological posturing. It presents multiple perspectives without turning traditional worldviews into villains. There’s no ideological steamrolling or sneering at dissenting perspectives, and traditional virtues are not ridiculed.
