Detailed Bias Analysis

Analyzing...
Progressive

Primary

The film's central thesis explicitly critiques systemic corruption, economic exploitation by the ruling class, and imperialist war, advocating for a revolutionary uprising to achieve social and economic justice.

The movie demonstrates significant DEI through the explicit racial recasting of a traditionally white-associated role with a minority actor. While the narrative features a diverse cast, its core themes primarily revolve around class struggle and corruption, rather than explicitly critiquing traditional identities.

Secondary

The character Yahya, a Moorish commander portrayed by Jamie Foxx, serves as a primary companion and mentor to Robin Hood. This role is analogous to Little John, who is traditionally depicted as white in folklore and prior adaptations, thus constituting a race swap.

The film portrays the institutional Catholic Church as corrupt, greedy, and complicit in the oppression of the poor, using religion as a facade for power and wealth. The narrative positions the Church as a primary antagonist, driven by financial gain rather than genuine piety.

Through the character of Little John (Yahya), a Saracen commander, the film depicts Islam and its adherents with respect, portraying him as an honorable, skilled, and morally upright ally to Robin Hood. The narrative subverts traditional Crusades portrayals by presenting a Muslim character as a hero and moral compass.

The film 'Robin Hood' (2018) focuses on the traditional retelling of the legend, primarily depicting heterosexual relationships and societal structures. There are no discernible LGBTQ+ characters or themes present, resulting in no portrayal to evaluate.

The film 'Robin Hood' (2018) does not feature any identifiable transsexual characters or themes. Its narrative is centered on historical action and adventure, thus the portrayal of transsexual identity is not applicable.

The film features Marian as the primary female character, who is involved in the rebellion and action sequences. However, there are no clear scenes depicting her or any other female character achieving victory in close-quarters physical combat against one or more male opponents through skill, strength, or martial arts.

The 2018 adaptation of Robin Hood maintains the established genders for all its major and supporting characters, including Robin Hood, Maid Marian, Little John, and Friar Tuck. No canonical characters were portrayed as a different gender.
