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

"Sweet Home" manages to steer clear of the typical woke pitfalls, opting for gritty storytelling and character-driven drama. Any messaging takes a clear back seat to the monster mayhem. Not much "woke" to complain about here.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Mildly Woke

What is this?

"Sweet Home" largely focuses on its apocalyptic horror premise rather than using identity politics to drive its narrative. Characters come across as complex and flawed, and diverse traits aren't spotlighted in a way that feels forced or unnatural.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Mildly Woke

What is this?

Traditional family, morality, and even religious themes are approached as human realities, not targets for subversion. Masculinity and femininity both have room to breathe, with characters displaying strengths and faults regardless of gender. There’s little evidence of intentional cultural revisionism.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

There are no obvious efforts to mock or villainize traditional worldviews or alternative perspectives. The show’s conflicts stem from survival and human nature, rather than overtly promoting a particular ideology.
