What We Think

Zorro (2024) is a textbook example of the modern “woke” reboot, identity-driven casting, ideological uniformity, and a determination to overwrite classic themes in the name of representation. Longtime fans of folk heroes may need to brace themselves.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Hyper Woke

What is this?

Zorro (2024) appears to prioritize modern sensibilities over story consistency, with characters cast and presented to tick diversity boxes rather than serve narrative coherence. Key roles deviate from tradition not based on merit but on visible identity, sometimes hindering credible character arcs.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Hyper Woke

What is this?

The series seems committed to reinterpreting classic folklore through a modern lens, downplaying traditional masculinity and subverting family and social norms. Long-standing cultural elements are revised to align with contemporary ideals, rather than respecting the original material's historical context.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Hyper Woke

What is this?

Alternative worldviews rarely get authentic representation. Characters largely reflect and reinforce a singular, modern, progressive moral framework, with traditional viewpoints often delegated to outdated or antagonistic roles with little nuance or fair consideration.
