Center
Primary
The film's central conflict, a pop group saving music from a villain, is an inherently apolitical premise. Its themes of teamwork, protecting creativity, and good triumphing over evil are universal and do not align with any specific political ideology.
The movie features a visibly diverse main cast of original characters, reflecting a range of ethnicities without explicitly recasting traditionally white roles. Its narrative, typical of a children's animated action-comedy, maintains a neutral or positive framing of traditional identities and does not center explicit DEI critiques.
Secondary
The film "Groove Squad" does not feature any identifiable LGBTQ+ characters or themes. Its narrative, focusing on a group of teenage girls forming a pop band and becoming secret agents, contains no elements related to queer identity or experiences.
The animated film 'Groove Squad' does not feature any identifiable transsexual characters or themes within its narrative or character portrayals. The story focuses on a pop group and a villain, without engaging with transgender identity in any capacity, leading to a determination of N/A for its portrayal.
The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.
Groove Squad is an original animated film from 2002, not an adaptation or reboot of pre-existing material. All characters were created specifically for this movie, meaning there are no established characters whose gender could have been swapped.
