Detailed Bias Analysis

Analyzing...
Traditional

Primary

The film champions the restoration of law and order through the decisive, often extra-legal, actions of morally upright individuals against systemic corruption, emphasizing individual heroism and a clear good-vs-evil narrative, which aligns with conservative values.

The film features traditional casting with a predominantly white male ensemble, consistent with its historical setting and the era of its production. The narrative maintains a neutral to positive framing of traditional identities, focusing on a classic good-versus-evil dynamic without incorporating explicit DEI themes or critiques.

Secondary

The film portrays Eliot Ness as a man of deep Christian faith, which serves as the bedrock of his unwavering moral compass and commitment to justice. His religious conviction is presented as a positive force, guiding his actions against the pervasive corruption of Al Capone.

The Untouchables, a crime drama set during Prohibition, does not feature any identifiable LGBTQ+ characters or themes. The narrative is solely focused on the conflict between law enforcement and organized crime, resulting in an N/A rating for LGBTQ+ portrayal.

The film "The Untouchables" (1987) does not feature any identifiable transsexual characters or themes. Its narrative focuses exclusively on the historical crime drama of Eliot Ness and his pursuit of Al Capone during Prohibition, with no elements related to transgender identity.

The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.

The film adapts historical events and characters, including Eliot Ness and Al Capone, and does not alter the established gender of any significant historical or canonical figures. All major characters maintain their original gender.

The film portrays historical figures like Eliot Ness and Al Capone, as well as original characters, with actors whose race aligns with the historical figures or the period setting. No character established as one race in source material or history is depicted as a different race.
