Love of Kill2022

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

Love of Kill is refreshingly non-woke by modern standards. The focus remains squarely on suspenseful storytelling, flawed but interesting characters, and an absence of heavy-handed ideological messaging or forced representation. A great palate cleanser from today’s trendier fare.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

Love of Kill focuses on story and character dynamics rather than using identity factors to drive the plot. The characters are depicted with flaws, and the romantic-thriller elements take center stage. There is little in the way of forced representation or prioritizing ideology over narrative.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

The show doesn’t concern itself with undermining religion, family, or tradition. Gender roles are relatively traditional, and there’s no heavy-handed critique of masculinity, morality, or culture – it sticks to suspense and romance without lecturing viewers.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

There’s no visible attempt to villainize traditional perspectives or mock pluralism. The focus is on personal backstory and psychological elements, not modern ideology. Alternative views aren’t caricatured or outright suppressed in the story.
