Detailed Bias Analysis

Analyzing...
Leans Progressive

Primary

The film's central conflict, portraying apes as an indigenous population defending their home from human encroachment, strongly aligns with progressive values by critiquing prejudice, xenophobia, and the destructive nature of war, while advocating for empathy and peaceful coexistence.

The film features a visibly diverse human cast, though it does not involve explicit race or gender swaps of traditionally white roles. Its narrative explores themes of inter-species conflict and survival, offering a general critique of human nature without explicitly targeting or negatively framing traditional identities.

Secondary

Dawn of the Planet of the Apes does not feature any identifiable LGBTQ+ characters or themes. The film's plot is centered on the escalating conflict between humans and apes, and the struggle for survival and dominance between the two species.

Dawn of the Planet of the Apes does not feature any identifiable transsexual characters or themes. The film's plot centers on the struggle for survival and power dynamics between humans and apes, with no narrative elements related to transgender identity. Therefore, the portrayal is N/A.

The film features female characters, including Ellie and various female apes, but none are depicted engaging in or winning close-quarters physical combat against male opponents. Their roles are primarily supportive or non-combative.

The film introduces new characters and continues the story of characters established in the preceding reboot installment. There are no instances of characters from prior canon or source material being portrayed with a different gender.

The film introduces new human characters whose races were not established in prior canon. The ape characters are consistently portrayed as their respective species, thus no race swap occurs.
