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

Vivarium largely sidesteps contemporary 'woke' trends, focusing on its sci-fi horror concept rather than identity or moral politics. Not much here to rile up the non-woke crowd.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

Vivarium is primarily a psychological thriller with little emphasis on ideological themes or forced representation. Character traits are built around their personalities and the film's central metaphor rather than identity politics.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

The movie explores the breakdown of family in an abstract, allegorical sense, but doesn't overtly attack traditional values or religion. Any subversion is more existential than ideological.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

Worldviews are presented through the lens of sci-fi horror, not modern social ideology. The film is more interested in existential dread than pushing any particular contemporary moral assumptions.
