Center
Primary
The film provides a satirical and psychological critique of social media and influencer culture, focusing on individual pathology and the superficiality of online life without explicitly promoting a specific political ideology or offering partisan solutions.
The movie features some visible diversity in its cast, though it does not appear to engage in explicit race or gender swaps of traditionally white roles. The narrative focuses on themes of social media and personal identity, without explicitly critiquing traditional identities.
Secondary
The film includes a supporting gay character, Dan Pinto, whose identity is presented as a normal aspect of his life. His relationship is stable, and his sexuality is not a source of conflict or commentary, making his portrayal incidental to the main narrative.
The film satirizes the superficial appropriation of Buddhist-associated concepts like 'mindfulness' and 'zen' by the character Taylor Sloane. Her performative spirituality is depicted as inauthentic and hypocritical, reinforcing a negative view of this shallow adoption of spiritual practices.
The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.
