Why the scores diverge

  • Resident Evil highlight: The dialogue primarily serves the horror and survival narrative with minimal overt ideological messaging.
  • Resident Evil: Characters appear to be motivated by survival and plot needs rather than symbolic representation or tokenism.
  • First Reformed: Characters are generally well-developed, but some secondary roles feel inserted to represent specific ideological viewpoints rather than organic narrative needs.
