Detailed Bias Analysis

Leans Traditional
Primary
The film leans right by validating the premise of a severe border threat requiring aggressive, extra-legal responses against ruthless cartels, even while portraying the moral ambiguity and grim costs of such actions.
The movie features a diverse cast, including prominent Hispanic actors in roles relevant to its border-focused narrative, without explicitly recasting traditionally white characters. The story does not present a critical portrayal of traditional identities, instead focusing on the moral complexities of its characters and geopolitical themes without an explicit DEI-driven critique.
Secondary
The film portrays Islam exclusively through the actions of violent extremists, depicting suicide bombers and terrorists who explicitly identify with the faith. The narrative offers no counterbalancing positive or nuanced portrayals, reinforcing a negative stereotype.
The film 'Sicario: Day of the Soldado' does not feature any identifiable LGBTQ+ characters or themes within its plot or character arcs. Consequently, there is no portrayal to evaluate, resulting in an N/A rating for its net impact on LGBTQ+ representation.
The film 'Sicario: Day of the Soldado' does not feature any identifiable transsexual characters or themes. Its narrative is exclusively centered on geopolitical conflict and drug cartel operations, resulting in no portrayal to evaluate.
The film does not feature any significant female characters engaging in direct physical combat. The primary female character, Isabela Reyes, is a victim and does not participate in fights. Other female characters are not involved in action sequences.
As a direct sequel, "Sicario: Day of the Soldado" continues the narratives of established characters from the first film, all of whom maintain their original genders. No new characters introduced in this installment are based on prior canon with a different gender.
Sicario: Day of the Soldado is a direct sequel featuring returning actors for its established main characters. New characters introduced in this film do not qualify as race swaps, as they lack prior canonical or historical racial depictions to deviate from.
