What We Think

"The Platform 2" doubles down on the original’s social criticisms, often sacrificing narrative complexity for messaging. Its take on tradition and alternative ideas leaves little room for pluralism, making it a firmly woke sequel by today’s standards.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Woke

What is this?

In our view, "The Platform 2" carries much of the original’s ideological messaging, sometimes prioritizing social commentary over organic storytelling. Certain characters appear shaped more by their symbolic value than character depth, with identity cues occasionally emphasized over individual arcs.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Hyper Woke

What is this?

The film continues to champion themes of wealth redistribution and critiques traditional structures, portraying previously foundational concepts like religion and family as either archaic or ineffective within its dystopian world. Masculinity, when it appears, is typically associated with brutality or weakness.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Hyper Woke

What is this?

This sequel maintains an overwhelmingly singular worldview, with little room given to dissent or alternative perspectives. Traditional solutions and moral views are either portrayed as naive or outright harmful, making debate within the film nearly nonexistent.
