Primary
The film is a lighthearted slapstick comedy centered on bumbling police officers catching jewel thieves. Its primary focus on apolitical humor and a generic 'good triumphs over evil' narrative, without engaging in deeper societal critiques or endorsements, places it firmly in the neutral category.
The movie features a visibly diverse ensemble cast, a characteristic of the Police Academy series, but does not involve explicit race or gender swaps of traditionally white roles. Its narrative is a lighthearted comedy that avoids critical portrayals of traditional identities or explicit DEI themes.
Secondary
Police Academy 5: Assignment: Miami Beach does not include any discernible LGBTQ+ characters or themes. The narrative and humor focus on other elements, resulting in no portrayal of queer identity within the film.
The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.
This film is a direct sequel in an established series. All returning characters maintain their original gender, and new characters introduced are not gender-swapped versions of previously established figures. Therefore, no gender swaps occur.
All returning legacy characters in "Police Academy 5: Assignment: Miami Beach" are portrayed by the same actors or actors of the same race as established in previous installments. No established character's race was changed.
