Traditional

Primary

The film's central conflict revolves around an American hero defending his family against a foreign terrorist threat, with the solution emphasizing individual agency and self-reliance when government protection proves insufficient. This aligns with conservative themes of personal responsibility and national security.

The movie features a predominantly traditional cast in its lead roles, with no explicit race or gender swaps of traditionally white characters for DEI purposes. The narrative focuses on a white male protagonist and does not present a critical portrayal of traditional identities or center DEI themes.

Secondary

Patriot Games, a political thriller centered on Jack Ryan's conflict with an IRA splinter group, does not feature any identifiable LGBTQ+ characters or themes. The narrative focuses exclusively on espionage, terrorism, and family protection, resulting in no depiction of queer identity.

While Annette participates in armed confrontations, her combat is primarily with firearms, and she is ultimately defeated by a male opponent. There are no scenes depicting a female character defeating one or more male opponents in close-quarters physical combat.
