Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Mildly Woke

What is this?

The film centers on a female firefighter played by Angelina Jolie. While her character is strong, her competence and struggle are portrayed within believable limits. The casting feels natural and not overtly identity-driven. There are no major signs that narrative integrity was sacrificed for ideology.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Mildly Woke

What is this?

Traditional themes around courage, duty, and personal redemption remain intact. Masculinity and family bonds, while not central, are not mocked or undermined. The film doesn’t seem to attack or excessively subvert traditional values or portray cultural foundations as outdated.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

Various perspectives are present, from the assassins to the law enforcement officers and regular people. The film does not paint any traditional worldviews as only villainous, and ideological messaging is subtle to nonexistent.
