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 Mighty Ducks is a refreshing reminder of non-woke entertainment, centered on growth, teamwork, and classic underdog themes. Identity politics take a back seat to good-old-fashioned storytelling.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

The Mighty Ducks keeps its focus on character growth, sportsmanship, and redemption. Casting and storylines are driven by realism and fit, rather than ideology or identity box-checking. The film gives room for characters of all backgrounds to have strengths and weaknesses.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

Family, mentorship, and responsibility are celebrated throughout. Traditional values are embraced rather than undermined; authority figures and parental roles are respected, and masculine traits are not portrayed as negative. The film doesn't feel the need to reframe history or tradition for modern tastes.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

The film portrays traditional values positively. There's no heavy-handed effort to villainize dissenting perspectives or force ideological uniformity. The villain coach is a standard tough guy, not a caricature of any particular worldview. Pluralism and mutual respect prevail.
