Detailed Bias Analysis
Analyzing...
Leans Progressive
Primary
The film leans left by offering a dark, satirical deconstruction of vigilantism, portraying individualistic violence as a deluded and destructive response to personal and societal problems rather than a heroic solution.
The movie features a cast that includes both male and female leads without explicit DEI-driven recasting of traditionally white roles. The narrative focuses on individual character flaws and dark satire, rather than offering a broad critique of traditional identities or making DEI themes central to its plot.
Secondary
The film features Libby, who as the vigilante Boltie, engages in direct physical combat using a wrench. She successfully defeats and incapacitates male opponents in several close-quarters encounters.
The film portrays protagonist Frank D'Arbo as a Christian who believes he receives divine messages to become a vigilante. His religious fervor is depicted as a delusion that fuels his extreme violence, hypocrisy, and self-righteousness. The narrative uses satire to critique the dangerous potential of twisted religious interpretations without offering any counterbalancing positive portrayal of the faith.
The film "Super" does not feature any identifiable LGBTQ+ characters or themes. The narrative centers on a man's descent into vigilantism, and no elements within the plot or character development relate to queer identity or experiences.
The film 'Super' (2010) does not feature any identifiable transsexual characters or themes. The narrative focuses on a man's vigilante journey after his wife leaves him, without engaging with transgender identity in any capacity. There are no plot points or character arcs related to transsexual individuals or experiences.
Super (2010) is an original film featuring new characters created for the movie. There is no prior source material or established canon from which character genders could have been swapped.
Super (2010) is an original film written and directed by James Gunn. There is no pre-existing source material (comics, novels, historical figures) from which the characters' races could have been established and subsequently changed for this adaptation.
