Detailed Bias Analysis

Center
Primary
The film primarily focuses on apolitical themes of family, love, and authenticity, while critiquing generic human failings like greed and superficiality, without explicitly promoting a specific political ideology.
The movie features visible diversity in its lead cast, with a prominent actor of Puerto Rican descent. However, the characters themselves are inherently unconventional, and the casting does not involve explicit race or gender swaps of traditionally white roles. The narrative celebrates individuality and non-conformity, contrasting the unique family with conventional society, but it does not explicitly critique traditional identities.
Secondary
The film satirizes the superficiality, hypocrisy, and oppressive conformity of 'normal' American society, implicitly rooted in Christian cultural norms. Through characters and situations like the summer camp, the narrative critiques these values without offering significant counterbalancing positive portrayals.
The Addams Family (1991) does not contain any identifiable LGBTQ+ characters or themes. The narrative focuses on the eccentric, macabre family dynamics and their interactions with the outside world, without incorporating queer identities or experiences.
The film "The Addams Family" (1991) does not feature any identifiable transsexual characters or themes within its narrative. Consequently, there is no portrayal of transsexual identity to evaluate, resulting in a net impact of N/A.
The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.
The 1991 film adaptation of The Addams Family maintains the established genders for all its core characters, including Gomez, Morticia, Wednesday, Pugsley, Uncle Fester, and Grandmama, consistent with their portrayals in prior source material and adaptations.
The 1991 film adaptation of The Addams Family features characters whose on-screen portrayals align with their established racial depictions from the original cartoons and previous television series. No main or legacy character's race was altered from their canonical or widely recognized portrayal.
