Detailed Bias Analysis

Leans Traditional
Primary
The film critiques corporate greed and the exploitation of small businesses, a theme often associated with left-leaning discourse. However, its narrative primarily focuses on the protagonists' individual, criminal, and farcical attempts at self-help, ultimately prioritizing dark comedy over any explicit political advocacy or systemic critique.
The movie features a predominantly traditional cast, with its three white male protagonists at the center. While some diversity is present in supporting roles, it does not involve explicit recasting of traditionally white characters. The narrative frames these traditional identities neutrally, without any critical portrayal or central focus on DEI themes.
Secondary
Horrible Bosses 2 does not include any discernible LGBTQ+ characters or themes. The narrative focuses entirely on its heterosexual main characters and their misadventures, resulting in no portrayal of queer identity.
Horrible Bosses 2 does not feature any identifiable transsexual characters or themes. The film's narrative centers on the protagonists' attempts to start a business and their subsequent involvement in a kidnapping plot, with no elements related to transgender identity or experiences present in the story.
The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.
Horrible Bosses 2 is a direct sequel to an original film, not an adaptation or reboot. All returning characters maintain their established gender from the previous installment, and new characters are original to this film. Therefore, no gender swaps occur.
Horrible Bosses 2 is a direct sequel featuring the same core cast reprising their roles from the original film. No established characters from the prior installment were recast with actors of a different race.
