What We Think

"The Crow: Wicked Prayer" doesn’t go all-in on modern woke trends. Any wokeness present is buried beneath standard mid-2000s goth tropes and clunky dialogue. Not exactly a non-woke masterpiece, but it certainly doesn’t wear its ideology on its sleeve.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

"The Crow: Wicked Prayer" mainly sticks to its revenge-driven supernatural narrative. While some diversity boxes are ticked, the film doesn't overly emphasize identity politics, and most casting aligns with character needs. Character development, however, suffers more due to clichéd writing than any forced ideological focus.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Mildly Woke

What is this?

The film touches on themes like redemption and spirituality, and although it includes criticism of corrupt religious figures, it doesn’t go out of its way to undermine family, faith, or traditional values. The treatment feels more tropey than aggressively ideological.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

There’s minimal overt preaching or modern moralizing in this movie. Villains are standard gothic criminals, not stand-ins for ideological out-groups. There’s little evidence of alternative worldviews being singled out for mockery or exclusion.
