BREAK IT ALL: The History of Rock in Latin America2020

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

BREAK IT ALL mostly sticks to the history and passion of Latin American rock, occasionally veering into woke themes but without surrendering the narrative to ideology. Not a woke disaster, but it doesn't totally escape the trend, especially in later episodes.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Mildly Woke

What is this?

Much of the docuseries remains focused on musicians’ talent, creativity, and the political struggles surrounding Latin rock. While some of the more recent episodes highlight identity and gender issues, the bulk of the narrative stays rooted in history and artistry rather than overt ideology.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Woke

What is this?

The series acknowledges cultural rebellion and touches on social themes, but it largely respects Latin American religious, family, and traditional values as contexts that shaped the music. There’s moderate exploration of gender and activism, but not a full-blown subversion of cultural foundations.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Woke

What is this?

While political dissent in music is highlighted, there’s an attempt to represent various perspectives, musicians, fans, critics, and industry figures. Some episodes tilt into woke territory, particularly regarding modern identity issues, but the series does not entirely villainize traditional perspectives.
