Ideology over story	How much the overall storytelling prioritizes ideological framing, message delivery, social commentary, or activism-coded narrative choices over pacing, conflict, immersion, and entertainment.	8/20	+5
Legacy rewriting	How much an existing franchise, adaptation, setting, or known property appears significantly altered, reinterpreted, or re-centered in ways that feel driven by modern ideological priorities rather than faithful or organic storytelling.	6/20	+4

AI read

Irma Vep presents a layered narrative that intertwines personal and artistic crises, creating a compelling exploration of identity in the film industry. The dialogue sometimes dips into self-aware commentary, reflecting the disillusionment of its protagonist, but it largely maintains a balance between storytelling and thematic exploration.
