The Tuxedo2002

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 Tuxedo is about as non-woke as they come, a silly, early-2000s action comedy fixated on laughs, not lectures. If you’re looking for overt agenda, you’re going to come up empty. Classic, harmless popcorn flick.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

The Tuxedo leans on classic buddy-comedy and slapstick action rather than identity-driven narratives. Characters are defined more by their quirks and comedic timing than any ideological agenda. Casting appears motivated by fit and entertainment, not forced representation.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

Traditional themes like masculinity, heroism, and even romance are played for laughs rather than subverted. The film doesn't go out of its way to undermine family, faith, or American culture. If anything, it celebrates conventional movie tropes.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

There’s no overt agenda or mockery of alternative perspectives; the focus is on light-hearted fun. If anything, the film is an artifact of pre-woke Hollywood, where diversity and ideology weren’t the main event. Dialogue is refreshingly non-preachy.
