Boneyard operates as a typical procedural thriller, relying heavily on established genre clichés. The narrative structure revolves around institutional investigations and the friction between various law enforcement agencies. While the film includes a female protagonist in a high-stakes role, it lacks clear examples of storytelling that reflect multiple aspects of identity or diverse character arcs. The focus remains on the mechanics of a criminal investigation rather than social or cultural critique. Overall, the film adheres to conventional storytelling structures, providing a moderate level of inclusion without significantly challenging traditional narrative patterns.
