Center
Primary
The film's central conflict involves a criminal conspiracy and mistaken identity, with its resolution focusing on individual heroes restoring order within the existing law enforcement framework, thus presenting largely apolitical themes.
The movie features a diverse lead cast, including a prominent Black actor in an action role, without explicitly recasting traditionally white characters. Its narrative focuses on a comedic buddy-cop dynamic, presenting traditional identities in a neutral or positive light without making DEI themes central to the plot.
Secondary
