Detailed Bias Analysis

Leans Traditional
Primary
The film is a lighthearted spy comedy focused on entertainment and parodying the genre. Its central conflict of thwarting a generic villain to maintain global stability lacks explicit political messaging, resulting in a neutral rating.
The movie features a predominantly white main cast, typical for its era, with supporting roles reflecting some ethnic diversity without explicit DEI-driven casting. The narrative centers on a traditional male spy protagonist and does not critique traditional identities, instead framing them neutrally or positively within the context of a 1960s spy comedy.
Secondary
The film 'The Wrecking Crew' does not contain any discernible LGBTQ+ characters or themes. Its narrative focuses on a spy comedy plot with heterosexual relationships, offering no representation or commentary on queer identity.
The film 'The Wrecking Crew' (1968) is a spy comedy that does not feature any discernible transsexual characters or themes. Its narrative focuses on secret agent Matt Helm's mission, with no elements related to transgender identity or experiences.
The film features female characters in action roles, including a martial artist who engages in physical combat. However, no female character is depicted as victorious in close-quarters physical combat against one or more male opponents.
The film is an adaptation of the Matt Helm novels, but its main characters, including Matt Helm, retain their canonical gender. The female leads are original to the film or significantly altered from the source material, not gender-swapped versions of established characters.
The film is an adaptation of Donald Hamilton's Matt Helm novels. A review of the main characters and their portrayals in the 1968 film reveals no instances where a character's established race from the source material was changed for the screen.
