The Christophers
movie·R·Apr 10, 2025
The Christophers scores a low 1/10 on wokeness by sticking to a sharp black comedy about family betrayal, artistic forgery, and personal integrity with zero identity politics or systemic messaging. Pure story-driven entertainment that stays neutral and focused.
The Christophers centers on a straightforward black comedy plot about greedy adult children (Barnaby Sklar and Sallie Sklar) hiring a struggling young artist, Lori Butler, to forge and complete unfinished paintings by their dying father, the once-famous painter Julian Sklar, so they can sell them after his death.
The narrative explores artistic integrity, forgery, family betrayal, and an unlikely friendship between Julian and Lori, with no foundational reliance on identity politics, systemic oppression narratives, or critiques of traditional norms.
Methodology: Each score synthesizes audience discourse, critic and aggregator reception, and press coverage — weighed against the work itself, not any single source.
