Leans Traditional
Primary
The film satirizes the commercialization of sports and the desperation of a declining working-class town, focusing on pragmatic survival through unconventional means rather than promoting a clear left or right ideological agenda.
The film features a cast that is predominantly white, consistent with its 1970s minor league hockey setting, and does not incorporate diverse casting choices or character representations. The narrative reinforces traditional white, male identities without offering any critical perspective or engaging with themes of diversity, equity, or inclusion.
Secondary
Slap Shot does not include any discernible LGBTQ+ characters or themes. The narrative focuses exclusively on the heterosexual relationships and experiences of the hockey players and their associates, resulting in no LGBTQ+ portrayal to evaluate.
Slap Shot does not feature any identifiable transsexual characters or themes. The narrative is exclusively centered on a minor league hockey team, their on-ice antics, and off-ice struggles, with no elements related to transsexual identity present in the film's plot or character development.
The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.
