Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

U.S. Marshals sticks to a straightforward action-thriller formula with a focus on plot and character capability rather than identity politics. Casting decisions and character arcs appear merit-based, with little to no emphasis on modern diversity checkboxes.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

The film respects traditional law enforcement values, portrays masculine heroism without irony, and doesn't attack religion, family, or morality. In short, it's as refreshingly non-woke as Hollywood ever gets.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

There’s no evidence of ideological grandstanding or mocking of traditional perspectives. The movie doesn’t deliver lectures, and alternative or old-school viewpoints aren’t villainized or caricatured, just good guys, bad guys, and a big chase.
