Center
Primary
The film provides an observational critique of hyper-consumerism and celebrity culture among privileged youth, depicting the moral vacuum and criminal behavior without explicitly promoting a specific progressive or conservative ideological solution to the underlying societal issues.
The movie includes visible diversity in its main cast, accurately reflecting the real-life individuals it depicts, without engaging in explicit DEI-driven recasting of traditional roles. Its narrative subtly critiques the materialism and superficiality of its privileged characters and the culture they inhabit, rather than explicitly focusing on DEI themes or negatively framing traditional identities based on race or gender.
Secondary
The film includes a gay main character, Marc, whose sexuality is present but largely incidental to the narrative. It is neither a source of positive affirmation nor negative stereotyping, serving as a background detail rather than a central theme. The story primarily focuses on the group's criminal activities and obsession with celebrity.
The film portrays Christian adherents as hypocritical, using faith as a superficial veneer or a tool for public image rehabilitation rather than a genuine moral guide. The characters' criminal actions starkly contradict their professed beliefs, highlighting a disconnect without offering a counterbalancing positive portrayal.
