Leans Traditional
Primary
The film is a generic action-thriller centered on individual survival and family protection within an espionage plot, and its core conflict lacks an inherent political valence, focusing instead on personal stakes and genre conventions.
The movie features a predominantly traditional cast without explicit DEI-driven race or gender swaps. Its narrative focuses on a standard action-thriller plot, presenting traditional identities neutrally without explicit critique or central DEI themes.
Secondary

The Cold Light of Day (2012) is an original action-thriller film with no pre-existing source material, historical figures, or legacy characters. All characters were created for this specific movie, thus precluding any instances of gender swapping.
