Wokeness Rating: 2.5/5

Feminism Rating: 3/5

ChickFlick Rating: 1/5

Commentary: Inglourious Basterds, directed by Quentin Tarantino, is a film set during World War II that primarily focuses on a group of Jewish-American soldiers and their plan to assassinate Nazi leaders. The film features strong female characters, such as Shosanna Dreyfus, who plays a pivotal role in the plot against the Nazis, contributing to a moderate feminism score. However, the film is not female-led, and its primary focus is on male characters and their violent exploits. The wokeness score is moderate due to its anti-fascist themes and the portrayal of Jewish resistance against the Nazis, but it lacks significant LGBTQ+ representation or anti-patriarchal dialogue. The chickflick score is low as the film is predominantly action-oriented and does not focus on romantic or relationship-driven narratives typically associated with the chick flick genre.
