What We Think

Y Tu Mamá También is refreshingly non-woke by modern standards. Its mature themes stem from organic character study rather than ideological messaging, and it navigates complex issues without preaching or vilifying. A well-rounded, grounded film.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

The film prioritizes character development, coming-of-age themes, and genuine relationships over ideological grandstanding. Identity elements, like class and sexuality, are explored naturally rather than forced, leaving the story feeling grounded and authentic.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Mildly Woke

What is this?

Traditional values like family and masculinity are examined but not outright mocked or dismissed. While there are critiques of Mexican society and some alternative lifestyles, these elements are woven into the narrative rather than used to push an overt agenda.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Mildly Woke

What is this?

The movie explores various worldviews, including conservative, liberal, and even fatalistic perspectives. Characters are complex and flawed; the film is far from an echo chamber and allows plenty of space for audience interpretation.
