Center
Primary
The film's central critique of pervasive government surveillance and control, portraying the state as intrusive and potentially deceptive, aligns with a right-leaning skepticism of big government, further emphasized by the solution relying on individual action to dismantle a problematic state system.
The film features a diverse cast with a Black lead and Latina actress in prominent roles. However, the narrative does not explicitly incorporate DEI themes, social justice messaging, or critical portrayals of traditional identities, focusing instead on its alien invasion plot and family dynamics.
Secondary
The lead character, Will Radford (Ice Cube), is an adaptation of the novel's unnamed narrator, who was implicitly a white European in 19th-century England. His portrayal by an African American actor constitutes a race swap.
