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 Hangover Part III is about as far from ‘woke’ as you’ll find in the last decade. Its irreverent tone, lack of political messaging, and focus on old-school comedy place it firmly in the non-woke camp. Don’t expect much progressive hand-wringing here.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

The Hangover Part III sticks to its formula: bro-centric hijinks, outlandish stunts, and crude humor. There's minimal forced representation or focus on identity over character or comedy, it’s mainly about the original guys and their misadventures. That's about as non-woke as modern Hollywood gets.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

The film doesn’t subvert traditional values or ridicule masculinity. Instead, it leans heavily into male friendships, questionable decisions, and chaotic bonding. Family, religion, and culture aren't targets; they're mostly background noise to the antics.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

Dissenting or traditional perspectives aren't villainized. The film doesn’t push modern moral crusades. Some might say it's adolescent, but it doesn’t preach or moralize, let alone enforce ideological uniformity. If anything, it lampoons everyone equally.
