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

Trance is far more interested in keeping the viewer guessing with a twisty plot than pushing any modern ideological agenda. If you’re after a film that puts storytelling first and keeps wokeness on the sidelines, this is a safe bet.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

In Trance, characters are driven by psychological motivations rather than identity politics. Casting decisions and character development focus on tense storytelling over mandatory diversity. The film avoids forced representation and instead prioritizes skill and narrative fit.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

The film’s themes are more concerned with psychological suspense than attacking tradition, religion, or masculinity. While there are some subversions of trust and control within relationships, it doesn't seem aimed at undermining societal foundations.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

Alternative perspectives and personal motivations are central to the plot. The movie is more of a psychological puzzle, not a platform for promoting one worldview over another. Characters are flawed and human, with little ideological messaging pushed through the story.
