Detailed Bias Analysis

Leans Progressive
Primary
The film centers on universal themes of justice and combating corruption within a traditional imperial system, with the narrative's solution emphasizing virtuous individuals restoring order rather than promoting specific political or economic ideologies.
The movie, a Hong Kong wuxia production, features a cast that is culturally appropriate for its setting, without engaging in explicit racial recasting of traditionally white roles. Its narrative does not explicitly critique traditional identities, instead framing characters within the genre's conventions.
Secondary
The film features multiple female characters, including Emotionless, Ji Yaohua, and Ru Yan, who are highly skilled martial artists. They repeatedly engage in and win close-quarters physical fights against numerous male opponents using hand-to-hand combat and melee weapons.
The character Emotionless (Wu Qing), canonically male in the original wuxia novels, is portrayed as female in "The Four 3" and the film series it belongs to. This constitutes a gender swap for a major character.
The film "The Four 3" does not feature any identifiable LGBTQ+ characters or themes. The narrative focuses on its wuxia and fantasy elements without incorporating queer identities or storylines, resulting in no depiction to evaluate.
The film "The Four 3" does not feature any identifiable transsexual characters or themes. Its narrative, a wuxia/fantasy story, contains no elements that depict or engage with transgender identity in any capacity, resulting in a determination of N/A for its portrayal.
The Four 3 is a Hong Kong wuxia film based on Chinese novels. All major characters, originally established as East Asian in the source material, are portrayed by East Asian actors in the film, consistent with their canonical depiction.
