What We Think

Troop Beverly Hills is a mostly non-woke, lighthearted comedy. While it playfully subverts some stereotypes, it avoids the hallmarks of modern Hollywood wokeness, focusing on fun and character-driven storytelling.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

The film focuses on character growth and comedic misadventure, rather than shoehorning modern identity politics into the narrative. While it features a strong female lead, her journey is about personal fulfillment, not ideology or forced representation.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

Troop Beverly Hills gently pokes fun at traditional gender roles but doesn't undermine family, morality, or masculinity in a radical or adversarial way. The humor and storylines are rooted in late '80s values rather than agenda-driven revisionism.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

Alternative viewpoints, like the ex-husband's perspective and other competing scout leaders, are presented with a fair amount of nuance for a family comedy, with no overt demonization of tradition or dissent.
