Primary

The film primarily functions as a classic science fiction adventure, focusing on humanity's defense against an external, oppressive alien empire. Its themes of individual heroism, survival, and the fight for freedom are broadly appealing and lack explicit political messaging, leading to a neutral rating.

The movie features a predominantly white main cast without explicit race or gender swaps of traditional lead roles. Its narrative focuses on a classic sci-fi adventure without critically portraying traditional identities or explicitly centering DEI themes.

Secondary
