What We Think

'The In Between' is mostly an earnest, apolitical teen drama with a supernatural twist. It avoids major woke pitfalls, instead sticking with universal emotional themes and standard character development. A few modern flourishes, but nothing too egregious.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Woke

What is this?

The film mostly tells a standard teen romance and supernatural love story, focusing on character development and emotional arcs. There are minor instances where modern relationship themes surface, but identity politics or forced representation don't dominate. Narrative integrity is largely preserved without obvious ideological distractions.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Woke

What is this?

Traditional themes like family and personal loss are handled earnestly. Masculinity, femininity, and relationships follow typical coming-of-age tropes without subversive edge. There's little to suggest deliberate rewriting of cultural or historical narratives to fit a modern ideology.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Mildly Woke

What is this?

The film avoids strong political or ideological messaging. While it leans into heartfelt modern drama, it does not villainize alternative views or traditional values. The focus remains on universal experiences that are unlikely to offend non-woke sensibilities.
