Leans Traditional
Primary
The film's core conflict, survival against a natural disaster, is inherently apolitical. The narrative champions a solution that blends strong, decisive leadership with individual courage and collective cooperation, without explicitly promoting either progressive or conservative ideologies.
The movie features a predominantly white cast, consistent with traditional Hollywood productions of its era, without any explicit race or gender swaps of established roles. Its narrative focuses on human survival and resilience among a diverse group of characters, but it does not critique traditional identities or incorporate explicit DEI themes.
Secondary
The film portrays Reverend Scott, a Christian minister, as a heroic figure who, despite initial disillusionment, finds renewed purpose and makes the ultimate sacrifice to save others, embodying the virtues of his faith.
The Rosen family, particularly Belle, is depicted with dignity and resilience. Belle's prayers and her Star of David necklace explicitly link her strength and hope to her Jewish faith, portraying it as a source of comfort and tradition.
The Poseidon Adventure, a 1972 disaster film, does not feature any identifiable LGBTQ+ characters or themes. The story centers on a group of heterosexual survivors attempting to escape a capsized ocean liner, with no elements in the plot or character arcs suggesting queer identities or relationships.
The Poseidon Adventure, a 1972 disaster film, does not feature any identifiable transsexual characters or themes. The narrative is solely focused on the survival efforts of passengers after a rogue wave capsizes their ship, thus rendering the transsexual portrayal N/A.
The film is a disaster movie focused on survival against the environment. Female characters are present and contribute to the group's survival, but none engage in or win direct physical combat against male opponents.
