What We Think

"Vamps" flirts with woke elements, but doesn't go overboard. Its approach is playful rather than preachy, poking at old-school values without serious hostility. A mid-tier woke score for a film that winks at modern identity politics without making them its core focus.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Woke

What is this?

"Vamps" plays with female empowerment and identity, but mostly remains a quirky comedy. Diverse casting and identity nods exist, but don't dominate the story. The humor is often self-aware rather than didactic, so while progressive elements are present, they're not overwhelming.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Woke

What is this?

Traditional values like family and romance are present but subverted through the vampire metaphor and satirical treatment of modern relationships. Masculinity mostly serves comic relief. It pokes fun at tradition more than vilifies it, but there's still a wink toward modern norms.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Woke

What is this?

Alternative viewpoints get a few comedic moments, but the film generally leans into contemporary humor and outlooks. It doesn’t harshly villainize traditional perspectives, but sincere representation of alternative worldviews is absent. The overall tone is light and leans modern.
