Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

This cycling documentary sticks to the authentic, inside-baseball world of a professional men's sports team. Characters are highlighted for their roles, personalities, and abilities rather than identity factors. There's minimal evidence of casting or narrative sacrifice for ideological purposes, refreshing for a modern docu-series.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

The film respects tradition, teamwork, and leadership with no effort to subvert or ridicule masculinity or family. It sympathetically depicts the pressure and camaraderie of pro cycling, with gender roles and cultural values largely taken for granted, not challenged or undermined.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

There’s little to no ideological messaging here. The focus remains on racing, sportsmanship, and inner-team drama, without pushing a 'correct' worldview or creating caricatured villains for ideological reasons. It’s almost quaint in how little agenda emerges.
