What We Think

The Croods keeps things refreshingly non-woke, focusing on timeless family themes and basic survival. No forced diversity, no ideological sermonizing, just good old-fashioned fun with a prehistoric twist. A rare non-woke specimen from DreamWorks.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

The Croods is primarily about a prehistoric family's survival and personal growth. Characters are defined more by personality and family roles than identity traits. The film focuses on universal storytelling without heavy-handed ideological detours or forced representation.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

The film centers around a traditional family unit, emphasizing the importance of family bonds and generational wisdom. While it playfully pokes fun at overprotective dads, it doesn't actively undermine cultural or moral foundations in any significant way.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

Alternative perspectives are not villainized, conflict revolves around generational change and adaptation. There’s no overt ideological messaging or browbeating; the overall moral is about openness to change and valuing loved ones, not contemporary hot-button issues.
