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 Twelve doesn’t reach peak-Hollywood levels of wokeness, but it certainly checks several modern ideological boxes. Identity themes and reimagining of traditions are woven throughout, though not quite as heavy-handed as some recent competitors.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Woke

What is this?

The Twelve features a diverse jury, with notable attention paid to characters' backgrounds and identities. While some character arcs feel genuine, others appear constructed around modern identity themes, nudging the show's balance away from pure narrative focus.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Woke

What is this?

There are moments where traditional family structures, masculinity, and morality are questioned or reimagined to align with present-day sensibilities. While it doesn't entirely mock tradition, it definitely offers a contemporary reinterpretation of cultural norms.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Woke

What is this?

Alternative or traditionally-minded views aren’t given much room. Traditional perspectives are either backgrounded or treated as outmoded, and characters tend to reflect a uniform modern worldview.
