Leans Progressive
Primary
The film's dominant themes align with progressive values by depicting the harsh realities of urban poverty, systemic neglect, and the cycle of violence, and the struggle of a marginalized individual against these forces, even if the immediate solution is individualistic.
The movie features a predominantly Black cast, centering its narrative on characters within an urban community. The film's plot, a crime drama, does not explicitly critique traditional identities or frame them negatively, nor does it involve the recasting of traditionally white roles.
Secondary
The film "Waist Deep" does not feature any identifiable LGBTQ+ characters or themes. The narrative focuses on a former convict's efforts to rescue his son from a gang, with no elements related to queer identity or experiences present in the storyline.
The film features Coco, a prominent female character who is involved in various action sequences. However, her engagements with male opponents primarily involve the use of firearms, driving skills, or strategic maneuvers, rather than direct physical combat or martial arts victories.
Waist Deep (2006) is an original film with characters created specifically for this production. There are no pre-existing source materials, historical figures, or legacy characters whose gender could have been altered.
