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

“Corleone” is refreshingly non-woke by today’s standards. It keeps both feet planted in its historical and cultural setting, avoiding the trappings of modern ideological storytelling. Purists of narrative integrity and tradition should find little to complain about here.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

"Corleone" focuses on the rise of the Mafia’s boss of bosses in Sicily, basing its story on historical characters and events. There’s minimal evidence that identity politics or forced diversity play a role, characters are Italian and fit their setting. It keeps its narrative rooted in the subject matter without obvious ideological detours.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

The series portrays traditional family ties, masculinity, and religion as complex forces within Sicilian society. While the criminal world is condemned, viewers will find little in the way of undermining classic cultural values or revising history to fit modern agendas. Traditional roles are depicted as they likely existed for the period.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

“Corleone” does not push any modern ideological monoculture. There’s a lack of present-day ideological lecturing. Dialogues and conflicts stay pertinent to the historical setting without vilifying dissenting perspectives beyond the expected criminal/justice divide.
