Center
Primary
The film focuses on universal themes of belonging, friendship, and overcoming an individual villain, rather than promoting a specific political ideology or critiquing systemic issues, leading to a neutral rating.
The movie features visible diversity within its voice cast for supporting animal characters. However, its primary human and animal roles are traditionally cast, and the narrative does not explicitly critique traditional identities or center on explicit DEI themes.
Secondary
Oliver & Company is an animated film that does not feature any identifiable LGBTQ+ characters or themes. The narrative focuses on a kitten's journey to find a home and family, without exploring queer identities or relationships.
The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.
The film is an adaptation of Charles Dickens's "Oliver Twist." While some characters are reimagined as animals or new characters are introduced, no character canonically established as one gender in the source material is portrayed as a different gender in the film.
This animated film adapts Charles Dickens's 'Oliver Twist' by portraying most main characters as animals. The human characters in the film, Fagin, Jenny, and Sykes, maintain the same racial depiction as their source material counterparts. The animal characters, by definition, do not possess a human race.
