The Sitter (2011)

Overview

Noah, is not your typical entertain-the-kids-no-matter-how-boring-it-is kind of sitter. He's reluctant to take a sitting gig; he'd rather, well, be doing anything else, especially if it involves slacking. When Noah is watching the neighbor's kid he gets a booty call from his girlfriend in the city. To hook up with her, Noah takes to the streets, but his urban adventure spins out of control as he finds himself on the run from a maniacal drug lord.

Detailed Bias Analysis

Analyzing...
Leans Traditional

Primary

The film primarily focuses on apolitical themes of personal growth, individual responsibility, and the challenges of young adulthood, with its central conflict and resolution centered on a character's journey to maturity rather than any specific political ideology.

The movie features visible diversity within its supporting cast, reflecting a varied urban setting. However, its narrative does not explicitly critique traditional identities or center on strong DEI themes, maintaining a neutral or positive framing of such identities.

Secondary

The film features Rodrigo, a young boy implied to be gay, whose character is largely built on stereotypical 'flamboyant' traits for comedic effect. His parents express concern, prompting the protagonist to attempt to 'man him up.' While this effort fails, the narrative primarily uses his identity for humor without offering significant critique of the stereotypes or affirming his identity.

The film features Roxy, a transsexual woman, whose identity is primarily used as a source of crude humor and discomfort for other characters. Her portrayal leans into harmful stereotypes, presenting her as a sex worker and the subject of demeaning jokes, without offering counterbalancing positive elements or critique. The net impact is negative.

The film portrays Noah's Jewish mother through the lens of the 'overbearing Jewish mother' stereotype, using it for comedic effect. This narrative choice reinforces a cultural stereotype without significant nuance or counter-balance, which can be seen as problematic.

The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.

The Sitter (2011) is an original film with no pre-existing source material, historical figures, or prior installments. All characters were created for this specific movie, meaning there are no established canonical genders to be swapped.
