How different viewpoints frame this

Progressive

Mixed reviews reflect industry challenges in delivering substantive stories for women in superhero films rather than blanket sexism, with praise for Alcock’s performance but criticism of familiar scripting and flat action.

“Representation alone cannot overcome narrative shortcomings; honest assessment prioritizes elevating diverse creators while demanding higher standards.”

Conservative

Sub-60% Rotten Tomatoes scores reflect measurable quality shortfalls in scripting and execution, not coordinated misogyny, and illustrate pushback against formulaic or agenda-driven storytelling.

“Critics focus on narrative shortcomings rather than the lead actress; identity-based defenses distract from product merit.”

Libertarian

Review aggregates near 57-58% reflect individual critics assessing script and action on merit; attributing low scores to sexism substitutes group grievance for personal accountability and consumer choice.

“Cultural markets function through voluntary exchange; identity politics pressures conformity over decentralized audience decisions.”

Devil's Advocate

All three prior perspectives assume the existence of widespread sexism accusations without evidence in the quoted reviews, which address only execution; they also treat disputed RT tallies and production facts as settled.

“The coverage manufactures a culture-war binary while omitting audience metrics, marketing context, and verification of whether any review cites gender.”
