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

Leaving Neverland is more concerned with personal testimony and its impact than with ideology or woke themes. It doesn't fixate on identity or indulge in overt cultural revisionism; it's a narrowly focused exposé rather than a vehicle for broader social messaging.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

Leaving Neverland is a documentary focused on the testimonies of individuals recounting personal experiences. Ideological elements take a back seat to personal narrative and investigative style. Identity-driven character casting is irrelevant here, and the film primarily aims to present a specific case, not construct a fictional world.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Mildly Woke

What is this?

While the documentary addresses disturbing topics, it does not make overt attempts to rewrite history, subvert gender roles, or mock faith, family, or masculinity in general. It's narrowly focused on allegations against a celebrity, in our view, not broadly undermining cultural foundations.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Mildly Woke

What is this?

Alternative perspectives are discussed somewhat, though the narrative is guided by the accusers’ stories. Skepticism toward the mainstream story is present but not deeply explored, so it remains fairly one-sided without much pluralism or substantive debate.
