Detailed Bias Analysis

Center
Primary
The film's central conflict against a totalitarian, religiously fanatical empire is universally condemned, and its solution, featuring a powerful yet reluctant anti-hero, balances themes of individual strength with anti-authoritarianism, resulting in a neutral political stance.
The movie features a visibly diverse cast within its original sci-fi setting, without explicitly recasting traditionally white roles. The narrative maintains a neutral or positive framing of traditional identities, focusing on its action and survival themes rather than critiquing established social constructs.
Secondary
The film features Kyra, a skilled fighter, who engages in direct physical combat. She is shown to be victorious against a male Necromonger soldier using a melee weapon (knife) during a critical confrontation.
The Chronicles of Riddick is a science fiction action film that does not feature any identifiable LGBTQ+ characters, themes, or plot points. The narrative focuses on its established universe and protagonist's journey without engaging with matters of sexual orientation or gender identity.
The Chronicles of Riddick does not feature any identifiable transsexual characters or themes. The film's narrative is centered on science fiction action and the protagonist's journey, with no elements related to transgender identity or experiences.
The Chronicles of Riddick introduces new characters and continues the stories of established ones like Riddick, Imam, and Kyra. All returning characters maintain their original gender from previous installments, and new characters do not qualify as gender swaps under the given definition.
The film is a sequel where key characters like Riddick maintain their established racial portrayals from the preceding film, "Pitch Black." New characters introduced in "The Chronicles of Riddick" do not have prior canonical racial depictions that were altered.
