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 Eagle is refreshingly non-woke, sticking to classic adventure and honor themes without shoehorning in modern ideology. A rare break from the Hollywood trend of heavy-handed messaging.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

The Eagle sticks to a traditional story structure, focusing on honor, redemption, and personal loyalty. Characters are defined by actions and motivations rather than by modern identity dynamics. There’s no sign that casting or narrative choices are made for ideological purposes.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

This film respects historic themes of duty, family legacy, and masculinity without subverting them. Roman and Celtic cultures are shown with some nuance, avoiding modern bias against tradition or patriarchy.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

There’s an absence of obvious modern ideological messaging. Characters display a range of viewpoints and aren’t just mouthpieces for a current agenda. Traditional values are neither mocked nor villainized.
