Detailed Bias Analysis

Center
Primary
The film's central subject matter of family dynamics and holiday stress is inherently apolitical, and its solution of fostering honesty and connection within the family unit does not align with a specific political ideology.
The movie features a predominantly white cast with some visible diversity in supporting roles, but it does not include explicit race or gender swaps of traditionally white characters. Its narrative focuses on family dynamics and personal challenges without explicitly critiquing traditional identities or making DEI themes central to the plot.
Secondary
Love the Coopers features Joe, a gay man, whose identity is a plot point in a subplot where he pretends to be another character's boyfriend. He is portrayed sympathetically, and his sexuality is not a source of ridicule. However, the film does not deeply explore or affirm his queer identity, using it mainly to advance another character's narrative.
The film uses Christmas as a backdrop for themes of family, love, and reconciliation, portraying the holiday's spirit positively. While characters experience stress, the narrative ultimately affirms the values of connection and hope often associated with the Christian celebration. Joe's general faith is presented as a genuine and comforting aspect of his character.
Love the Coopers does not feature any identifiable transsexual characters or themes. The film's plot centers on the various relationships and personal struggles within a conventional family during Christmas, offering no portrayal, positive or negative, of transsexual identity.
The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.
Love the Coopers is an original film with characters created specifically for this production. There are no pre-existing canonical or historical characters whose gender could have been altered.
Love the Coopers is an original film with no prior source material, historical figures, or previous installments. All characters were created for this movie, establishing their race for the first time on screen.
