Detailed Bias Analysis

Analyzing...

Leans Left

Primary

Political: Leans LeftConfidence: High

The film critically examines the War in Afghanistan, highlighting failures in political leadership and media accountability, and advocating for active civic engagement as a response to public apathy.

Diversity: ModerateConfidence: High

The film features visible diversity in its supporting cast, but does not engage in explicit race or gender swaps of traditionally white roles. Its narrative offers a critique of political and societal issues, rather than explicitly focusing on or negatively portraying traditional identities or making DEI themes central to its core message.

Secondary

LGBTQ: N/AConfidence: High

Lions for Lambs is a political drama that interweaves storylines about war, media, and academia. The film's narrative focuses entirely on these themes, and there are no identifiable LGBTQ+ characters, themes, or plot points present in the movie. Therefore, the film has no net impact on the portrayal of LGBTQ+ individuals.

FemPower: N/R

The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.

Gender Swap: NoConfidence: High

Lions for Lambs is an original screenplay with no pre-existing source material, historical figures, or legacy characters. All characters were created for this film, thus there are no instances of a character's gender being changed from a prior established version.

Race Swap: NoConfidence: High

Lions for Lambs is an original screenplay with fictional characters, not an adaptation of existing material or a biopic. Therefore, no characters had a previously established race to be swapped from.
