Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

The film focuses on adventure, obsession, and passion, presenting characters whose drives and struggles take center stage. Representation choices feel organic and driven by story, not ideology. There's no sense that identity politics override narrative quality.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

Traditional values like perseverance, exploration, male bonding, and personal legacy are central. There is no subversion of masculinity or family, nor forced revisionism. If only Hollywood stuck with this approach!

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

Different worldviews are treated respectfully, and the film avoids political preaching. There is no ideological monoculture or villainizing of alternative perspectives; it simply tells a human story about mountaineering.
