What We Think

"The Theory of Everything" is refreshingly non-woke, focusing on character, faith, and family rather than injecting ideological messages. It’s a biopic that respects its subject, and its audience.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

The film stays focused on Stephen Hawking's life, relationships, and scientific legacy. There is no overt prioritization of identity politics or forced representation. Character development and conflict arise organically from the story rather than ideological concerns.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

Traditional family values, marriage, and perseverance are central to the film. Masculinity isn't undermined, and religion is treated respectfully in the context of Hawking's and Jane's differing beliefs. There's little in the way of cultural subversion or agenda-pushing.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

Alternative viewpoints, religious faith, atheism, personal choice, are depicted sincerely. There's a mature handling of conflicting perspectives, not the typical ideological uniformity or caricaturing of opposing beliefs seen in many modern films.
