Strong Left
Primary
The film leans left due to its focus on stand-up comedy that frequently draws on the Black experience, offering social commentary and critiques of racial dynamics and everyday life, which aligns with progressive discussions of identity and social justice, though its primary aim is entertainment.

Their performances are rich with social commentary, directly addressing and critiquing traditional societal structures and racial experiences, making DEI themes central to the film's content.
Secondary
The Original Kings of Comedy is a stand-up concert film showcasing four comedians.

The film's focus is solely on the comedians' performances.
The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.
