Detailed Bias Analysis
Analyzing...
Leans Progressive
Primary
The film maintains a neutral stance by portraying the Cold War espionage world as universally corrupt and morally ambiguous, critiquing the methods of all intelligence agencies without endorsing a specific political ideology or offering a partisan solution.
The movie features a strong female protagonist and includes a prominent LGBTQ+ relationship, contributing to visible diversity within its cast. However, it does not engage in explicit race or gender swaps of traditionally white roles, nor does its narrative explicitly critique traditional identities or center around strong DEI themes.
Secondary
Atomic Blonde features a bisexual protagonist, Lorraine Broughton, whose sexuality is depicted as a natural, integrated part of her complex character. Her relationship with Delphine Lasalle is portrayed with passion and significance, without being sensationalized or condemned. Despite a tragic outcome for one character, the film affirms LGBTQ+ identity through its dignified and agentic portrayal.
The film prominently features Lorraine Broughton, a highly skilled MI6 agent, who repeatedly engages in and wins close-quarters physical fights against multiple male adversaries, demonstrating superior combat prowess.
Atomic Blonde does not feature any identifiable transsexual characters or themes. The film's narrative centers on Cold War espionage and the protagonist's bisexual identity, without engaging with transsexual experiences or issues, resulting in no depiction within its storyline.
The film is an adaptation of the graphic novel "The Coldest City." A review of the main and supporting characters reveals no instances where a character established as one gender in the source material is portrayed as a different gender in the film. Original characters created for the film are excluded from the definition.
The film is an adaptation of the graphic novel "The Coldest City." Key characters, including Lorraine Broughton and David Percival, maintain the same racial depiction as their source material counterparts. No established characters were portrayed by actors of a different race.
