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

‘All or Nothing: Arsenal’ keeps its focus on football, team dynamics, and individual journeys. There are only mild, passing nods to modern social themes, making it refreshingly non-woke compared to most contemporary entertainment.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

As a sports documentary focused on Arsenal’s 2021/22 season, the series keeps its narrative grounded in the on-field journey. Player identities are mentioned only as context and not elevated above the actual football drama. The show doesn’t appear to shoehorn in ideological talking points, sticking closely to the real sporting and managerial ups and downs.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

The show largely respects the traditional values of team spirit, hard work, and personal responsibility. Family, drive, and even national pride are celebrated. There's little in the way of deliberate subversion of masculinity, family, or traditional foundations; instead, classic sports doc themes prevail.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

While the series largely focuses on football, some gestures and themes around social justice appear, but they're brief and mainly reflect the current culture of professional sports. There’s a general lack of overt political uniformity, with the players’ differing backgrounds respected without mockery or villainization of alternatives.
