Primary
The film critiques the corrupting influence of wealth and power, drawing parallels between the ruthlessness of the criminal underworld and corporate finance, which aligns with left-leaning critiques of systemic issues and the 'American Dream'.
The movie features a diverse cast, including a Hispanic lead, which reflects its urban setting. While some traditional identities are portrayed in negative roles, this is driven by individual character actions within the crime drama rather than an explicit critique of traditional identities or a central DEI narrative.
Secondary
