Center
Primary
The film is a comedic adaptation of a true crime story, primarily focusing on the individual incompetence and absurd situations of the characters involved in a heist. It does not present a discernible political thesis or advocate for specific ideological solutions, remaining apolitical in its core conflict and narrative resolution.
The movie features a visibly diverse cast, including a prominent Black actress in a supporting role. However, the narrative primarily focuses on comedic elements of its characters' actions and does not explicitly critique traditional identities or center on DEI themes.
Secondary
The film portrays Christianity primarily through the character of Jandice, whose strict and performative religiosity is used for comedic effect. Her adherence to faith is often depicted as a source of manipulation or naivete, without significant counterbalancing positive or nuanced portrayals of the religion itself.
