Detailed Bias Analysis
Analyzing...
Leans Right
Primary
The film's right-leaning bias stems from its unwavering focus on the heroism, sacrifice, and essential role of individual police officers in combating extreme criminal violence, thereby championing law enforcement without engaging in systemic critiques.
The movie features a visibly diverse cast, including a Latino lead, without explicitly recasting traditionally white roles. Its narrative focuses on the positive portrayal of its main characters, emphasizing their dedication and bravery, and does not include explicit critiques of traditional identities.
Secondary
The film 'End of Watch' focuses on the lives and work of two LAPD officers, Brian Taylor and Mike Zavala. There are no identifiable LGBTQ+ characters or themes present in the narrative, leading to a determination of N/A for its portrayal of LGBTQ+ elements.
The film primarily focuses on two male police officers and their experiences. While there are female characters, none are depicted engaging in or winning direct physical combat against male opponents. Combat scenes predominantly involve male characters.
End of Watch is an original film with characters created specifically for this production. There are no pre-existing characters from source material, previous installments, or real-world history whose gender could have been altered.
End of Watch is an original screenplay, not an adaptation of existing source material or a biopic of historical figures. The characters were created for this film, so there is no prior canonical or historically established race to be swapped from.
