Center
Primary
The film's core conflict is an apolitical personal vendetta, resolved through universal themes of teamwork, friendship, and self-acceptance, rather than promoting any specific political ideology.
The movie features anthropomorphic animal characters, which inherently sidesteps direct human representation issues. Its narrative is a straightforward animated comedy focused on adventure and friendship, without engaging in critiques of traditional human identities or incorporating explicit DEI themes.
Secondary
The film features Eva, a snowy owl, who engages in direct physical confrontations. She utilizes her natural abilities, including talons and flight, to defeat multiple male octopus minions in close-quarters combat during various action sequences.
The film 'Penguins of Madagascar' does not include any discernible LGBTQ+ characters or themes. Its narrative is entirely devoid of such portrayals, leading to a net impact rating of N/A.
The main characters, Skipper, Kowalski, Rico, and Private, maintain their established male genders from previous installments. New characters introduced in the film do not constitute gender swaps as they lack prior canonical gender.
The main characters are animated penguins, to whom the concept of human race does not apply. There are no instances of human characters from prior canon being portrayed as a different race in this film.
