Why the scores diverge

  • The Whale highlight: The dialogue often feels weighed down by heavy-handed messaging about body positivity and societal judgment, which sometimes overshadows natural character interaction.
  • 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.
  • The Whale: Characters occasionally seem crafted to embody specific social issues, particularly around obesity and redemption, rather than emerging organically from the story.
