What We Think

Despite featuring a diverse cast, 'The Human Race' focuses on survival rather than pushing modern ideology. Its narrative and character-building stay largely non-woke, making it a rare example of restraint in recent cinema.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

The film centers on a deadly race featuring a cast chosen seemingly at random from diverse backgrounds, but without overtly sacrificing character development for identity themes. Its focus remains on survival and morale rather than ticking diversity boxes.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

Traditional values, such as perseverance and self-reliance, are present in the narrative. There's no particular undermining of religion, family, or masculinity, most characters are defined by their actions in the brutal scenario rather than ideological statements.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

The movie doesn't dwell on modern ideological issues or mock alternative perspectives. The conflict is survival-based, not political. If anything, the film's hard-edged, neutral approach offers some ideological pluralism.
