The Verdict
A straightforward swashbuckling adventure with zero meaningful identity messaging. Angelica is a strong female pirate but functions as Jack's equal foil, not a girlboss lecture, and the film contains no LGBTQ+ themes, swaps, or preaching. Clean across nearly every axis.
What the AI Flagged
Each axis scored 0–100, with the receipts. The headline score weights the worst offense, so a single egregious element isn't diluted by the rest.
Identity Swaps
0No established characters are race- or gender-swapped; characters are original or franchise-consistent.
Girlboss & Male Demotion
15Angelica is a capable female pirate and Jack's equal/foil, but the film doesn't diminish men as a message; Jack remains the lead.
- Angelica cons and duels Jack as an equal adversary
LGBTQ+ / Trans / Non-Binary Content
0No LGBTQ+, trans, or non-binary content present.
DEI Casting
10Casting fits the Caribbean/colonial-era pirate setting; no checkbox diversity overriding lore.
Preachiness
5A pure adventure romp with no sermons or activist messaging; a mermaid/missionary romance subplot is character-driven, not preachy.
Anti-Masculinity / Anti-West
5No framing of masculinity, the West, or colonialism as inherently villainous.
Source Betrayal
5Loosely adapts the novel 'On Stranger Tides' but changes are creative/franchise liberties, not identity-driven.
