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 Spy Who Dumped Me swaps out the classic spy formula for a strong dose of modern girl-power, often at the expense of realism and traditional archetypes. While not the wokest film out there, it’s clear which direction it leans.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Woke

What is this?

The film leans heavily into centering its story around two female protagonists placed in a traditionally masculine spy genre. While some may see this as refreshing, others might feel it pushes identity over skill, with certain improbable feats from the leads feeling a tad forced for comedic and empowerment effect.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Woke

What is this?

Traditional gender roles are subverted throughout, with male characters often portrayed as inept, comedic foils to the hyper-competent female leads. Romance, family, and traditional morality are played mostly for laughs or sidelined, nudging the film into modern ideological territory.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Woke

What is this?

The movie largely celebrates one worldview: the empowered modern woman. Dissenting or traditional perspectives are mostly mocked, depicted as bumbling, or simply absent, though the film keeps things breezy and comedic rather than openly hostile.
