Leans Traditional
Primary
The film explores intergenerational conflict over parenting styles, ultimately advocating for a balanced approach through compromise and mutual understanding rather than endorsing a specific ideological viewpoint, leading to a neutral rating.
The movie features a traditional cast with no explicit race or gender swaps of established roles. Its narrative focuses on family dynamics without critiquing or negatively framing traditional identities, indicating an absence of explicit DEI themes.
Secondary
The film portrays the main characters as Jewish, with their heritage informing family values and traditions. While humor arises from generational clashes, the narrative ultimately affirms the importance of family bonds and traditional wisdom, implicitly linking these to the characters' Jewish background without satirizing the faith itself.
Parental Guidance (2012) does not include any identifiable LGBTQ+ characters or themes. The narrative centers entirely on the intergenerational dynamics of a heterosexual family, resulting in no portrayal of queer identity within its plot or character arcs.
The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.
Parental Guidance is an original film with characters created specifically for this movie. There is no prior source material, historical figures, or previous installments from which character genders could be established and subsequently swapped.
Parental Guidance (2012) is an original film, not an adaptation, biopic, or reboot of existing material. Therefore, its characters do not have a pre-established canonical or historical race to be swapped from, aligning with the exclusion criteria for new, original characters.
