Detailed Bias Analysis

Center
Primary
The film is a classic action-comedy adventure primarily focused on individual heroism and preventing a villain's plot, with its core conflict being largely apolitical and not promoting a specific ideological stance.
The movie demonstrates visible diversity through its lead Asian protagonist and other Asian characters, which is fundamental to its premise rather than being explicit race or gender swaps of traditional roles. Traditional identities are generally portrayed neutrally or positively, and the narrative does not contain a strong or explicit critique of these identities.
Secondary
The film features Chon Lin, a highly skilled martial artist, who repeatedly engages in and wins close-quarters physical combat against multiple male adversaries, including a significant sword fight victory against a primary antagonist's henchman.
Shanghai Knights does not feature any identifiable LGBTQ+ characters or themes. The film's plot is entirely centered on its action-comedy premise without engaging with queer identity in any capacity, leading to an N/A rating.
The film "Shanghai Knights" does not feature any identifiable transsexual characters or themes within its narrative. Consequently, there is no portrayal to evaluate regarding transsexual identity, resulting in a determination of N/A.
The film features original characters and historical figures whose on-screen portrayals align with their established genders. No characters who were canonically, historically, or widely established as one gender are depicted as a different gender.
Shanghai Knights is an original film series. Its main characters, Chon Wang and Roy O'Bannon, are consistently portrayed by actors of their established races. Historical figures depicted also align with their known races. No character's race was changed from prior canon or history.
