The Divide2012

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

'The Divide' dodges just about every woke bullet Hollywood loves to load. The story lives and dies on primal survival and human nature, not identity politics. If you want your films straight, raw, and non-woke, this is a solid pick.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

'The Divide' focuses on a group of survivors in a post-apocalyptic bunker, driven by raw desperation rather than modern ideological narratives. Characters are flawed and their arcs depend on personality and choices, not identity factors. Forced representation or diversity clichés are nowhere to be seen.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

The film keeps its sights on human survival rather than using its setting for lectures about religion, gender roles, or social justice. Any critique of traditional structures comes through the disastrous scenario and is spread equally among all, not delivered as woke commentary.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

Alternative worldviews are not villainized or reduced to caricature. Instead, the characters descend into chaos with believable diversity of outlook under pressure. There’s no woke echo chamber, if anything, the grim realism might offend the perpetually offended crowd.
