What We Think

This movie is a prime example of ideology driving the storytelling, with religion frequently mocked and diversity of worldview notably absent. Its treatment of traditional values might feel heavy-handed to non-woke viewers.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Woke

What is this?

The film occasionally pushes atheism as a central theme, sometimes at the expense of developing nuanced characters on both sides of the religious debate. The emphasis on Madalyn Murray O'Hair’s activism can feel a bit one-note, sidelining other perspectives or motives for her actions.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Hyper Woke

What is this?

'The Most Hated Woman in America' frames religion as largely oppressive and outdated, while celebrating the protagonist’s campaign against prayer in schools. Traditional religious values, especially Christianity, are routinely cast in a negative, sometimes even comedic, light.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Hyper Woke

What is this?

The film falls into the trap of portraying most religious characters as villains or hypocrites, with little effort to showcase credible or sympathetic alternatives. Sincere faith isn't given much room for complexity or positive representation.
