The Fear Index2022

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

'The Fear Index' stays mostly in the lane of an anxiety-ridden techno-thriller, but it can’t resist a few of the usual modern notes. There’s a whiff of ideological conformity, but it doesn’t drown out the main story. Could be a lot more woke, and Hollywood’s done worse.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Woke

What is this?

While 'The Fear Index' focuses on thriller elements rooted in tech paranoia, there are moments where contemporary identity themes nudge into character interactions. Still, character backgrounds are mostly used in service of the plot, not simply for box-checking.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Woke

What is this?

The series doesn't center family, faith, or tradition, focusing more on corporate, technological, and scientific anxieties. Masculinity and morality are interrogated, but not overtly undermined. There’s a subtle undercurrent of modern skepticism toward traditional values, but it’s not the main act.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Woke

What is this?

There's a noticeable absence of traditional counterpoints, and dissenters tend to be portrayed as either unstable or out-of-touch. While it isn’t overtly heavy-handed, alternative worldviews get minimal sincere representation.
