Leans Traditional
Primary
The film's core conflict, while initially apolitical, resolves through a strong emphasis on individual, extra-legal action and personal retribution, bypassing the formal justice system when it fails.
The movie features a visibly diverse cast, including a Black actress in the lead role and a Black actor in a significant supporting role. However, these contemporary roles do not represent explicit race swaps of traditionally white characters. The narrative focuses on the thriller plot and does not contain explicit critiques of traditional identities or central DEI themes.
Secondary
