Leans Right
Primary
The film's central subject matter of magical chaos, slapstick comedy, and a father's journey to embrace parenthood is inherently apolitical, preventing any alignment with specific left or right ideologies.
The movie features a predominantly white main cast without intentional race or gender swaps of traditional roles. Its narrative is a lighthearted comedy that does not engage in any critical portrayal of traditional identities or incorporate explicit DEI themes.
Secondary
Son of the Mask is a fantasy comedy that does not feature any discernible LGBTQ+ characters or themes. The story centers on the antics of a magical mask, a baby, and a dog, with no elements related to queer identity or experiences present in its plot or character arcs.
The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.
The film introduces new characters and features Loki, who is portrayed as male, consistent with his primary canonical gender. No established characters from the source material or previous installments have their gender changed.
The film features new main characters not present in prior canon. The returning character, Dr. Arthur Neuman, is portrayed by a white actor in both the original and sequel. Loki's race is not consistently defined in source material to constitute a swap.
