What We Think

Troop Zero has its heart in the right place, but it really wants you to cheer for the underdogs by lampooning anything remotely traditional. Its quirky charm is sometimes overshadowed by an obvious push for modern moral themes, making it one of those movies that’s hard to ignore when looking for wokeness.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Woke

What is this?

Troop Zero leans heavily into identity-driven storytelling, focusing on a diverse group of misfits where individual traits like gender and background are center stage. Some viewers may feel that this emphasis distracts from deeper character development and instead serves as a vehicle for themes over organic narrative growth.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Woke

What is this?

The film gently mocks traditional authority figures and pokes at classically masculine values, elevating its quirky female protagonists. Family and small-town life are depicted with both warmth and a critical eye, potentially undermining more traditional notions of community or gender roles.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Hyper Woke

What is this?

Alternative perspectives are largely absent or gently caricatured as obstacles for the kids to overcome. The narrative celebrates non-conformity and difference while old-fashioned ideas tend to be sources of conflict, rather than possible valid paths.
