What We Think

The Game Changers is a text-book example of modern documentary “wokeness”, eschewing balanced discussion in favor of a single ideological message and recasting traditional values about diet and masculinity as archaic. You’ll find more nuance in a kale smoothie.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Woke

What is this?

The film frequently centers its message on identity-based campaigns, athletes from diverse backgrounds touting plant-based diets, sometimes at the expense of a balanced exploration of nutritional science. The documentary’s framing feels less about nuanced stories and more about pushing a one-size-fits-all ideology.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Hyper Woke

What is this?

Traditional values surrounding diet, masculinity, and family are challenged relentlessly. The film goes out of its way to equate plant-based choices with strength and improved masculinity, almost mocking longstanding dietary beliefs and masculine archetypes as outdated or dangerously misinformed.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Hyper Woke

What is this?

Alternative worldviews, particularly those supporting balanced diets or defending meat consumption, are quickly dismissed or caricatured. There’s little room for legitimate debate or pluralistic perspectives, with almost all voices echoing the same pro-vegan narrative.
