Detailed Bias Analysis

Analyzing...
Leans Traditional

Primary

The film's central conflict of good versus evil, resolved through a classic hero's journey and the upholding of an ancient order, relies on archetypal fantasy tropes that lack a strong, inherent political valence in the mainstream US context.

Seventh Son features a largely traditional cast with no explicit race or gender swaps of established roles. The narrative maintains a neutral to positive framing of traditional identities, with no significant critique or explicit DEI themes central to its fantasy storyline.

Secondary

Seventh Son does not include any discernible LGBTQ+ characters or themes. The narrative focuses on a standard fantasy adventure without incorporating queer identities or experiences, resulting in no portrayal to evaluate.

The film "Seventh Son" does not feature any identifiable transsexual characters or themes. Its narrative focuses on fantasy elements, witch hunters, and magical creatures, with no content related to transgender identity.

The film features powerful female characters who engage in combat, but their victories against male opponents are consistently achieved through the use of magic, transformations, or other supernatural abilities, rather than through non-superpowered physical skill, strength, or martial arts.

The film "Seventh Son" adapts "The Spook's Apprentice" novel. All major characters, including Tom Ward, John Gregory, Alice, and Mother Malkin, retain their established genders from the source material in the movie adaptation.

Based on "The Wardstone Chronicles" novels, the film's main characters, including Tom Ward and Master Gregory, are portrayed by actors whose race aligns with the implicit depictions in the source material. No established character underwent a race change.
