Solo Leveling2024

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

Solo Leveling remains refreshingly non-woke, focusing on classic storytelling and character-driven action. If you’re tired of Hollywood’s usual ideological box-ticking, this is a rare reprieve.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

The story prioritizes character growth and competence, sticking close to the original web novel’s appeal. Characters are defined by skill and personality, not by shoehorned identity politics. Any diversity is largely organic or dictated by the source material, not modern trends.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

Traditional themes like family, sacrifice, and self-improvement are central, with masculinity and heroism portrayed positively. There’s little subversion of classical values, and societal structures are left largely unchallenged.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

There is minimal moral lecturing or forced consensus on social issues. The world reflects a variety of backgrounds and ideologies, and alternative viewpoints aren’t outright mocked or villainized. Any modern ideological signaling is basically non-existent.
