Primary

The movie features a diverse cast, with its central characters, including the protagonist, explicitly designed and portrayed as Black, which is fundamental to its original concept. The narrative, however, primarily focuses on themes of revenge and power within its unique world, rather than explicitly critiquing or negatively framing traditional identities.
