Detailed Bias Analysis

Analyzing...
Center

Primary

The film's central critique targets unchecked corporate power and government complicity in environmental crimes, which are primary preoccupations of progressive discourse, leading to a left-leaning rating.

The movie features a predominantly white main cast without explicit DEI-driven casting or race/gender swaps. Its narrative centers on a white male protagonist portrayed positively, and while antagonists are also white males, their negative portrayal stems from their actions rather than their identity, with no central DEI themes.

Secondary

The film 'Edge of Darkness' does not feature any identifiable LGBTQ+ characters or themes. The narrative focuses entirely on a detective's investigation into his daughter's murder and a corporate conspiracy, with no elements related to queer identity or experiences present in the story.

Edge of Darkness does not feature any identifiable transsexual characters or themes. The story is centered on a father's investigation into his daughter's death, leading to a political thriller plot involving corporate and government malfeasance. Therefore, the film has no impact on the portrayal of transsexual individuals.

The film centers on Thomas Craven's investigation into his daughter's murder. No female characters are depicted engaging in or winning direct physical combat against male opponents.

The 2010 film is an adaptation of a 1985 miniseries. Key characters, including Thomas Craven, Emma Craven, and Jedburgh, retain their original genders from the source material. No established characters underwent a gender change.

The 2010 film is an adaptation of a 1985 British miniseries. Key characters, including Thomas Craven, Emma Craven, and Darius Jedburgh, maintain the same racial portrayals as their counterparts in the original source material. No character established as one race was depicted as a different race.
