Detailed Bias Analysis

Primary

The film explicitly promotes a pro-CCP, collectivist, and nationalist ideology, framing the Korean War as a defensive struggle against U.S. aggression, which aligns with the 'Clearly Left' rating due to its systemic critique of U.S. foreign policy and its embrace of a communist state's narrative.

The movie features a cast centered on Chinese national identity, including strong female characters, but does not engage in explicit DEI-driven casting as understood in a Western context. Its narrative positively frames Chinese national identity and heroism without critical engagement of traditional identities or broader DEI themes.

Secondary

The film, 'The Volunteers: The Battle of Life and Death,' does not appear to feature any LGBTQ+ characters or themes. Its narrative centers on patriotic war events, family, and national sacrifice within a historical and political context that typically excludes LGBTQ+ issues. Therefore, the portrayal is N/A due to a complete absence of depiction.

The film 'The Volunteers: The Battle of Life and Death' does not contain any identifiable transsexual characters or themes based on available information. Its narrative centers on historical war events, and there is no mention of transsexual representation in its plot or character descriptions.

The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.

The film's extra information explicitly states there is no indication of gender swapping or major gender role reversals. Female characters are present in supporting roles consistent with historical context, not as re-gendered versions of established male characters or historical figures.

The film depicts the Chinese People's Volunteer Army in the Korean War. The cast and characters are predominantly Chinese, reflecting the historical context. There is no evidence of any character, historically or canonically established as one race, being portrayed as a different race.
